Around SBN: 2012 Africa Cup Of Nations Final

Great job, guys

You guys deserved it. You guys played hard, and did something the MFY of 2004 couldn't: stop a Red Sox rally. It is very hard, and you guys did it. Congratulations.

The ALCS is what everybody wanted. 7 games, an almost completed comeback. A Rays-Philly series. I'd go for the Rays here, as I would for all World Series, I go for the American League team, except for the MFY.

We feel for you guys. Sure, Matt Garza beat us, and we are still wondering how, but i have to admit that all-around, the Rays starting rotation is better than ours. I mean, maybe Lester or Beckett when he is on is better, but you guys seem to have a pretty consistent four in Kazmir, Shields, Garza, and Sonny.

Your line-up... BJ really showed up for the playoffs. Evan was doing well, despite being a bit ahead of himself. You guys just out-hit us, out-pitched us (for the most part) and out-played us. Congratulations.

Most of us are.

Please don’t lump us all into the same barrel as a few bad morons apples. I’ll try to do the same for some of the Rays fans that come over to our site.

so i here that derek lowe wants to come back to the red sox

how do you red sox fans feel about that? i think that he is pretty good # 4 or 5 starter so if he dont want too much money then i could see them signing him again

the ratings prove that the series was thought of as the World Series anyway

We all know that the Rays/Red Sox ALCS was the two best teams in baseball playing each other. It’s too bad there has to be a seperate playoff for the National and American League. Judging by the ratings of game 7, it will probably be considered by many as a more worthy matchup than this World Series.

You guys gave us one hell of a series.
