With their 3-1 series win over the favored New York Yankees, the Cleveland Indians have earned the right to play in the American League Championship Series. Facing the Indians in the ALCS will be the Boston Red Sox who come off a sweep of the Anaheim/Los Angeles Angels of California of America. While the series on paper appears to be one that will featue some fantastic pitching match-ups, both teams feature strong offenses as well. While the Red Sox are led by David Ortiz and former Indian Manny Ramirez, the Tribe counters with a more balanced attack 1-9.
Two things to look for in this series are 1. how do the Indians’ bats respond to a much better pitching staff of Boston compared to New York, and 2. how obvious will the East Coast bias be now that Boston is involved and not NY? Here’s what I think - I am going to buy some Cleveland Indians apparel & a hat before I head to Jacobs Field for Game 5, as the Indians will win this series in 7 games.
A Man a Fisto to Cleveland Indian Fans:
Hey tribe fans instead of cheering for chief wahoo its time to start crying woohoo. Next to those choke artist fom NY what other Northeastern Sports town can be called a city of Champions. That’s Right Boston! Repeat after me cleveland fans, fans from a miserable loosing city, Boston Teams own 24 Pro Sports Championships: 16 from the boys in green the Celtics, and one more for them this year; 3 from our NFL team aptly named the Patriots; 5 from our NHL team the Bruins; and 1, soon to be 2 from the Redsox, after we sweep your sorry indian asses. What does cleveland have 2 World Series Titles from over 6 decades ago, no championships in the NFL era, no NBA titles. cleveland is a city of losers Boston is a city of winners. No more curses we’re the big dogs now. Cleveland is just a bait dog readying Boston up for our next Championship. Those weak as yankee teams got nothing on our Red Sox, now Boston’s the empire a city of championships on steriods. Think those punk as yankees were tough? Not! It’s over Red Sox sweep cleveland! On to our second World Series Title you guys can now be the lovable loosers those. The Red Sox and Boston will forever be the city of Winners. Heck think about it we rocked cleveland and its fake ace yesterday like we’ll rock the mistake by the lake today. Your city is pathetic to have one of your own franchise players such as Lebron James diss you by puttin on a yankee hat. Boston Red Sox 2007 World Series Champions! Get ready to be mowed down cleveland!
The curse of the bambino is dead and now so are the Cleveland Indians

A couple of points on your comment:
1. Classy move. Thanks for representing Boston in such a professional, classy way.
2. Quote: “fans from a miserable loosing city” - the proper spelling is l-o-s-i-n-g.
3. Your use of punctuation and capitalization makes me worry greatly about the schools in Massachusetts.
4. Quote: “from the Redsox, after we sweep” - when did Red Sox become one word?
5. Quote: “Redsox, after we sweep your sorry indian asses.” - tied up at 1-1 thanks the Trot Nixon and the boys. Looks like you missed on that sweep prediction.
6. Quote: “be the lovable loosers those” - spelling error again.
