The Diamondbacks had a little of their own ninth inning magic!:) But even better than that, we had a stealth bomber circling our house for about an hour before the game! Awesome baby!! Check it out.

I couldn't agree more. How about that Randy Johnson?

Congrats AZ!

Excellent! I'm not normally a Diamondbacks fan, but I was last night. What a great game!

The D'backs have given Arizona the state's first-ever professional sports championship. :cool:

I'm not a Yankee fan, really. But I think they're a great team. They have a great organization (Steinbrenner excepted), and they play the game right. They're also a great bunch of guys. I really wanted to see them win. I like dynasties; I think they make it more fun. Look at how dreary the NFL has become in these days of parity.

They say to win a World Series you buy two horses and ride them. The D-backs certainly rode Randy Johnson and Curt Schilling. Almost rode Schilling too much. I thought Arizona made some stupid pitching decisions, pitching Schilling on three days' rest in game four, and pitching Kim three innings in game four and then bringing him back in game five.

Still, live by the two-out, bottom-of-the-ninth homer, die by it, I guess. The Yankess couldn't make miracles every time. It was a historic series, one of the best I've ever seen. Congratulations, Arizona. Watch out next year, though.

The Unit

Coming in for relief! Brought back memories of the Mariners in '95.

Schilling -- 3 starts in the series

Johnson -- 3 wins in the series

A good choice for co-MVPs.

Just wish my Mariner's had been in there . . . :ugg:

I am a Braves fan and since they just can't seem to get the job done I was elated to see the Diamondbacks take away the prize.. God bless the Yanks though they gave it there all and it was truly a great series- That was IMO Baseball history!!!!

 

[Hogwylde]

Who are the Diamondbacks and what are they champions of?????:p

At least baseball season is over now and we can watch some real sports on tv.

The Icecapades aren't a sport Hog..

Me too. After one of the best World Series in history, everyone is feeling great, let's contract. That should be good for the sport.:silly:
