		<description><![CDATA[You guys can argue all you want about the Sox and Yanks, neither one of them has a shot against the Phillies in the Series anyway.  They matchup bat for bat with the Yanks - and we OWN CC in the playoffs.  Red Sox would be a better series but with Hamels and Lee pitching 4 of the possible 7 games?  Plus the best 1 thru 6 hitters in baseball, nobody has a shot.  Phils back-to-back (and belly to belly - what a hack Sterling is)!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Yankees are falling apart. Losing 2 to Baltimore at home, almost 2 to Toronto at home, 2 out of 3 to Seattle with 6 games vs Angels and Red Sox. To make mattes worse, Boston&#039;s winning every game so they may even lose the division. We definitely cooled off. Even if we still old off Boston, CC still sucks in the playoffs, Burnett sucks in general, Joba sucks as a starter and can&#039;t go more than 5 innings and Petitte is too old. (Gaudan and Mitre as starters also make me cringe.)]]></description>

You&#039;re being fed propaganda...you need to move out of Boston or become (God forbid), a Red Sox fan.
Here&#039;s four reasons the Yanks will make the series:
Hitting

		<description><![CDATA[Looks to me like the only ones crying are a couple of the posters on this thread.
The Yankees are indeed back, they will be favored to get to the World Series and will probably win their 27th. World Championship.
Deal with it!]]></description>
