86 year drought comes to an end pt IV

MMD show from 10-28-04 after Red Sox beat Cardinals

[@caz62]

Its been 5 years since that faithful day and I still get goose bumps!!

[@dinoradja2980]

Russo is the best sports radio guy I've ever heard

[@metsfreak4life]

Alex from New Canaan is my favorite caller from this show. Mike's reaction at 8:55 is priceless!!!

[@jimbaker5110]

He sounded like a goof

[@josephcoleman57]

LOL "I have no respect for the Cubs" Mike must have been really pissed off when Theo Epstein left Boston, went to Chicago and ended anther curse hahaha

[@joeraguso5376]

If you'd ever met a Cub fan, you wouldn't have any respect for them either.

[@KHayes666]

Have to remember this was one year after Steve Bartman. Its one thing as a Sox fan to blame Grady Little or Tim Wakefield for 03 or a Yankee fan for blaming Kevin Brown and Javier Vasquez for 04....but its another to blame a ticket buying fan who had ZERO to do with anything that happened after the infamous foul ball. Cubs fans ran that guy out of town because Mark Prior and Kerry Wood melted under pressure, that's probably why Mike said that.

[@raymondm.9954]

They overlooked the curse-busting White Sox.

[@AlbertV90]

@6:00 Wow Boston sports teams have been extremely successful against St.Louis sports teams. Pretty cool and eerie facts.

[@jgfunk]

Mike forgets Yankees fans threw stuff on the field in game 6..to the point where they had to pull players off the field!

[@chrissachse6207]

I was there right by first base with my schilling jersey so I witnessed how ignorant Yankee fans were that night and of course cussing at me for wearing a schilling jersey too

8:59 dog calls it nathaniel hall. lol its faneuil hall

[@robohobobaseballseth]

"Vazquez is not going to go to arizona!" lol k

[@wa2k99]

Amazing how the White Sox weren't even mentioned and they hadn't won since 1917.

[@joeraguso5376]

That's because Cub and Red Sox fans are sissys that had to blame their team's failures on a curse. White Sox fans just accepted they sucked.

[@clintfowler1526]

@@joeraguso5376 the white Sox are not as popular. They couldn’t surpass the Cubs as the most popular team in Chicago

[@JarodShapiro]

Didn't Vasquez go to Arizona?

[@hmhm856]

Yankees traded him after the 2004 season for Randy Johnson

[@Pauli3b]

what is the music at 6:36? it's maddddd good =]

[@MarkoAnzio]

Not for Mets fans it wasn't. To this day this was the most exhilarating baseball experience of my life. I wish it could be a Met moment but I'm only 29 so I was too young for 86.

[@KHayes666]

I don't know why I'm responding to an 8 year old comment but I was 4 months old when the ball went through Buckner's legs, you would have been about 2. I was actually pulling for you guys against the Yankees in 2000 but they were just too good then, way too much pitching for anyone else to handle. To this day I don't know how the hell you lost to the Royals in 2015 after wiping out the Cubs.

[@JackBauer270]

@kencoa the riot squads were there in game 6 because of the A-Rod interference call, a lot of yankee fans were starting to freak out over that call, as for game 7 tho, Mike was right, there really wasn't anything the Yankee fan did wrong, of course a majority of them left after the 2nd inning

[@kencoa]

Chris Russo looks like Steve Carell. As for the Yanks being gracious, why were there riot squads in Yankee stadium during game 6. From what I heard the St. Louis fans were very kind and gracious.

[@sean2015]

I wouldn't generalize. The Cardinals fans certainly weren't kind and gracious back in 1985 when they flooded Don Denkinger with hate mail and death threats.

[@raymondm.9954]

If I remember correctly, both stadiums (Yankee and Busch) left the lights on so Red Sox fans could celebrate as long as they wanted to.

[@christopheraparicio4482]

Javier Vazquez had a good first half but in the second half he fell apart and of course we know what happened in the postseason.

[@KHayes666]

Mad Dog saying the Cubs were next, haha he had the wrong Chicago team.

[@josephcoleman57]

l have been to hundreds of games both at Fenway and the Stadium and have never ever had any problem other that some over the top "rudeness" -on just a few occasions from Yankee fans,, Both teams have their share of jerk fans (myself included at times) but it's 99.9% fine...NY and Boston fans are all and all a lot better than a lot of fans,,,,People fighting and being dangerous at sporting events ruin it for the kids and it's unacceptable...You hear me Philly?

[@iodedonpepto]

6:10 the Red Sox didn’t win their first WS against the cardinals. His dumb little fun fact was false

[@garydizzine]

He said they ended a long drought against them like the Bruins did
