If you considered each game a 50-50 win chance for them.  But if you
based it on past 0-3 teams in a best of 7, then they'd have 0% chance
of winning!

Woot!  Maybe this'll be the year they finally break free of the
Charlie Brown Syndrome.

This morning in Boston's South Station, there was a guy on the P.A.
system doing a sing-song "Who's your daddy?" and wishing everyone a
great day, every few minutes.

Funny thought: If the Socks win the Series, the Pats could lose every
game for the rest of the entire season, and everyone will still be
floating on air.  Boston is a hardcore basebell town above all other
sports.
