I don't remember every watching such an evenly matched, back and forth finals. Each game has a different flavor. The first 5 minutes has yet to set the tone for how the rest of the game will go. The hero of the game switches each game and is often more like a hero of a half or quarter that seemed critical to that game's flow than the whole game. Ray Allen's shooting in the first half of game 2 is probably the most dominant any one player has really been in the series and in the great scheme of things, that was only 7 shots. After every game you get the feeling that the team that just win has the advantage, but the next game it all changes and the loser has made some adjustments or has managed to get things in sync to take the momentum back.
How can you not love this matchup and the series that they are putting on?

New MLB Home Run King
MLB has a new home run king just around the corner. He has never hit one, but Jamie Moyer is 4 home runs away from giving up more than anyone else. I'm cheering for the 47 year old who has had good enough stuff to keep him in the major leagues long enough to allow 501 home runs in 41 different parks to 319 diferent players. The 44 year old record is currently 505 held by HOF pitcher Robin Roberts. My hat is off to you, Jamie. An early congrats on a record that is much greater that it seems at first glance.
Go Jamie
