I hate your team, and I loved the Major Leauge movies, which made the Trie my #2 team when I was like 11, I always liked them after that. Not saying I'm a hardcore fan, but I do hope they ass rape the fucking Red Sux.

So I guess we will just have to rely on Beckett to pitch games 4,5,6,7.

Wakefield Game 6

if necessary...

Beckett Game 7

I don't know what to think of Wake going tomorrow.

I am officially in panic mode.

But I'm naturally that way.

I have faith in Wake. I just hope our offense doesn't want to ground into double plays tomorrow.


But weather reports have it raining all day out here tomorrow. There is a very good chance it will get called due to rain. This would then allow Beckett to make a possible game four appearance.

[SoRight24]

I am officially shitfaced now.

[smeritt]

Yea a rainout would bring this life new series. Of course you still get CC in game 5 in Cleveland soooooo IDK. But Beckett in game 4 Schill game 5 Dice K game 6 and Beckett game 7. Gotta hope

[timg1414]

does anyone have a mp3 of the song okajima okie doke by mr. yoshie? i was at the game on saturday and heard the song and thought it was hilarious. just curious if someone has it floating around here

[bothedmbfan]

You're mom says she wishes you were never born, fucktard!!

Your mom says she wishes she never decided to have you stop going to school after you got your ass kicked in second grade.

[dowling25]

well that wasn't fun to watch tonight. it was pretty shitty actually. i wish varaitek would of done something earlier in the game when the bases were loaded in 2nd inning!

I hope Wake pitches well tomorrow. I think if they went down 3-1 it still wouldn't be over. Beckett Schill and Dice-K to end it. I have faith ever since 2004

[rickyh24]

this is pretty much hat i was going to post

[rickyh24]

i really don't like coco crisp, he does nothing...the red sox could have a lot better out there....he was up in some key situations and couldn't deliver just like all year long

[rickyh24]

whats up with the music selections by fox? the other night the Indians were down by like 5 runs and they kept playing "Cleveland rocks" tonight the sox are down 4 and they finally play "dirty water" i don't get it..why don't they play the songs when the appropriate team is ahead?

[rickyh24]

i would seriously sacrifice his fielding to play ellsbury right now....your not losing much on the deal...

[Hudak-Budak]

I don't think you should be making light of peoples' grammar after misspelling Valium.

[Hudak-Budak]

Dice-K's line for tonight:

7 IP, 8 H, 3 R, 6 Ks, FTW...

It's too bad you can't edit posts after five minutes.

[Hudak-Budak]

Also, not only are we going to end Wakefield's night early tomorrow, we're going to end his career. Say goodbye, because he's going out on a low note.

[dowling25]

yeah i bet they get rid of coco this offseason so ellsbury can play.

i mean coco is sick in the field but otherwise no power and no really good at bats! fucking grounding into a double play with bases loaded.

[dowling25]

Gear down, turbo. Travis and I have already talked about this. The Boston thread is more active than the Cleveland thread, so this is where we're coming for the series. Don't get your panties in a bunch because it looks like your World Series hopes are all but over.

yeah but dice-k is shaky....im just as confident in wake as i am with him....and if the series is 2-2..im very confident from there on out

[rickyh24]

but my point was after wake its beckett again

[Hudak-Budak]

yeah but dice-k is shaky....im just as confident in wake as i am with him....and if the series is 2-2..im very confident from there on out

Dice-K was 15-12, 4.40 ERA. Westbrook was 6-9, 4.32. He's just as shaky as Dice-K.

[rickyh24]

Dice-K was 15-12, 4.40 ERA. Westbrook was 6-9, 4.32. He's just as shaky as Dice-K.



yeah i know...westbrook is shaky too..i wasn't trying to say he wasn't

i was trying to say i have as much confidence in the sox #4 as i do their #3.

im not gonna lie when i changed my sig tonight...it hurt...

Game 6 is 'if necessary' at this point too! :)

i really don't like coco crisp, he does nothing...the red sox could have a lot better out there....he was up in some key situations and couldn't deliver just like all year long

I would shop him around in the winter and see what you can get. Ellsbury is your future, he impresses me far more than Crisp ever has. I would start the year confident in Ramirez, Ellsbury, and Drew/Keilty in the OF. You don't really need Crisp IMO and that would free up money to invest in other players.

if it were me i would shop around drew and crisp...its unlikely for drews money someone will want him...

but if they could free up that money would not be a bad thing . they need to start thinking about replacing schilling and maybe ever varitek (as much as i hate to say that about either guy)...or maybe even spend big money on some other center fielder and put ellsbury in right for a year or two..

[GavMan33]

Let me say this; all you Red Sox fans are much more calm after a Sox loss than the Yankee fans are after a Yankee loss. Not sure why that it though. The only reason there's been shit-throwing in this thread is because Cleveland guys come in here and pick shit. So +1 to the Boston fans to not getting negative :thumbsup

And to be quite honest, even if you do fall behind 3-1, which is entirely possible, you are by no stretch out of it. You win Game 5, then go back home for 6 and 7. And I wouldn't put money on losing Game 4.

[Lcsulla]

I doubt anyone is picking up Drew's contract unless you subsidize the hell out of it. I doubt you'll sign Schilling back, not a prayer with Bucholz MLB ready and waiting. Lester should fill in for Wake if he goes so there's no real loss in the pitching department. You'll probably want Varitek around to tutor his replacement to be honest, that is a tough call. CF is tough too, Jones and Hunter are available but I am not sold on either of them, not at the price they'll command. I think Ellsbury in CF is a solid bet and you're paying him peanuts right now.

theres always faith

[Lcsulla]

Bob, we are less calm because half the time we don't even know who is starting our next game or whether he'll make it out of the second inning. Is it going to be a senior citizen or a kid who hasn't shaved yet! Solid starting pitching keeps people calm. :)

[smeritt]

Next year I will be much more calm to be perfectly honest. Wang, Pettite, Hughes, Chamberlain, Kennedy. Me like.

Wow. I never thought someone would talk disrespect to a person / player like Tim Wakefield. This is one of the classiest guys in baseball. He has never been about the money and only wants to win. The guy just put together one of his best seasons ever and is 41 years old! 17 wins! I think we pay him 4 million a season. Clemens cost 17 million for what, 6 wins. Plus, Clemens is an ass. Even if this is Wake’s last start you can’t say this guy is going out on a low note.

[dmbgodagirl41]

Is it wrong that I wanna punch Dice-K in the face?

Is it wrong that I wanna punch Dice-K in the face?
I hope not, because I'm with ya on that one. But I'm much more upset with the lack of clutch hitting last night. I mean come on, bases loaded, no outs, and no runs scored!!! Give me a break. How many men were left on base, at least 12 I think. :BANG They all deserver a good :twak and a :violent and even a :twenty4

Ugh, yeah, both. I can't really say it was Dice-K's fault, 100%. But fuck, if someone was paying me 50 MILLION dollars, I'd freaking win every game in a damn Tu-Tu if they wanted me to.

But yeah, Sox gotta get on that O. Great pitching is KEY but without the sticks, you ain't got shizzle.

Wang, Pettite, Hughes, Chaimberlain, Kennedy. Never thought of it that way. Good stuff :thumbsup

Basketball is my #1 sport, college hoop since the post-2000 Knicks have been a joke. But UConn? Really? I can't stand Calhoun or Auriemma. And yeah, the Celtics will definitely be better this year. But nothing like those teams of the early to late-80s (well, except the same club's teams of the late-50s to the late-60s). It's a shame I was too young to comprehend the history there :shrug

And in terms of the 2004 ALCS. That will never happen again in baseball. So be proud that you are the one team in the one year to pull that off :mad

True, but even if we lose tonight we wont' be down 3-0 ;) so a comeback would still be possible. To quote the very infamous Yogi Beara "It ain't over till it's over". :D

[dowling25]

all righty. lets pull it together tonight sox. i say that coco goes and ellsbury plays or something because i like coco fielding but batting sucks.

[LaDude]

all righty. lets pull it together tonight sox. i say that coco goes and ellsbury plays or something because i like coco fielding but batting sucks.

What could we get for Coco? Maybe a bag of balls?

What about Ellsbury for Santana? Assuming we could lock up Santana to a long term deal. I love Ellsbury. I'm just tossing this trade out there.

[jmudmbphan]

are you insane?

[SoRight24]

We are NOT trading Ellsbury, and plus it would take alot more than that to get Santana.

[UNC41]

We are NOT trading Ellsbury, and plus it would take alot more than that to get Santana.

For sure. The Sox could start with a package of Buchholz and go from there.

[LaDude]

We are NOT trading Ellsbury, and plus it would take alot more than that to get Santana.

I would trade Ellsbury and Buchholtz for Santana.

[ProudestAnt]

Is it wrong that I wanna punch Dice-K in the face? Dude gives up 4 runs through 6 innings and you want to punch him in the face? That's the best outing he's had in months. Typical front-runner ignorance...

[ProudestAnt]

I would trade Ellsbury and Buchholtz for Santana. Manny + Lester + Ellsbury...

[SoRight24]

Manny + Lester + Ellsbury...

Who plays left then?

[ProudestAnt]

Who plays left then? Sign somebody?

[SoRight24]

Sign somebody?

Fair enough.

I agree with not giving up Buchholz though.

[dowling25]

Manny + Lester + Ellsbury...

don't like that trade at all. just my opinion i guess. too much to give up.

[ProudestAnt]

don't like that trade at all. just my opinion i guess. too much to give up. Too much to give up for Johan Santana? Too much to give up for the ability to partner him with Josh Beckett and Dice-K? Too much to give up to have first shot at signing him to a long-term deal? Eh, Manny at the end of his career, Lester is a 3 guy MAYBE, and Ellsbury is a great player, but he's a year away at least from being a full-time guy...

[SoRight24]

I think we should make a go at Andruw, and move either him or Coco to left.

Although you could argue that Coco is too good of a fielder to play left.

Thats of course if we gave up Ellsbury and Manny.

[thom hudson]

beckett + santana + dice-k would be lethal

[ProudestAnt]

I think we should make a go at Andruw, and move either him or Coco to left.

Although you could argue that Coco is too good of a fielder to play left. The only way Coco moves is if we bring in someone like Hunter, but even then i think you leave Coco where he is...

[ProudestAnt]

beckett + santana + dice-k would be lethal That's three potential 20 game winners. Siiiiiiick...

[SoRight24]

beckett + santana + dice-k would be lethal

Seeing that just made me all giddy inside. :lol

Seeing that just made me all giddy inside. :lol
because of the immense skill of those 3 being on one team?

Eh, Manny at the end of his career, Lester is a 3 guy MAYBE, and Ellsbury is a great player, but he's a year away at least from being a full-time guy...

yeah i don't really care about lester coming back. however ellsbury looks to be a real good player. and manny even in his older age is still a great hitter. i like johan and all but i don't know about that.

[dowling25]

i wouldn't mind going for andruw either. i think he could be deadly in fenway. i guess we'll have to see what happens with everyone.

and what do you guys think about lowell, keep him or dump him]?

[thom hudson]

jones batted .226 last season. i dont think he could be deadly anywhere at this point.

unless the sox are going to make a move for a-rod, i wouldn't let Lowell go anywhere.

[LaDude]

i wouldn't mind going for andruw either. i think he could be deadly in fenway. i guess we'll have to see what happens with everyone.

I think you gotta keep Lowell...but at the right price. He could be looking for big money after this season.

[SoRight24]

jones batted .226 last season. i dont think he could be deadly anywhere at this point.

unless the sox are going to make a move for a-rod, i wouldn't let Lowell go anywhere.

I have a feeling Andruw will turn it around.

But Bora$$ will want too much for him. Like usual.

[dmbgodagirl41]

I still wanna punch Dice-K in the face.

[groton]

I still wanna punch Dice-K in the face.
:lol

[dowling25]

yeah andruw i think could definitely turn it around. and hopefully boras is not asking for too much. i mean look at the season andruw had. what could he possibly be asking for.

[SoRight24]

yeah andruw i think could definitely turn it around. and hopefully boras is not asking for too much. i mean look at the season andruw had. what could he possibly be asking for.

Boras will find a way to get a big payday for Andruw.

He has ruined baseball.

[UNC41]

Manny + Lester + Ellsbury...

I don't see this happening ...

It's completely against what the Twins franchise does to trade for a 35 year old left fielder and pay him more than a quarter of the team's allocated salary for the year. I'm confident every serious discuss the Twins have will begin and end with two elite prospects.

Also, have the Red Sox given anybody a no-trade clause since Manny signed his contract? I read he didn't have one, but if they gave one to someone else than one is added to Manny's contract. If so, I can't see him accepting a trade to Minnesota.

[dowling25]

yeah what an asshole.

Lester + Ellsbury + Ramirez is not a bad hit I don't think. But let me throw this out there. You'll have to sign a decent hitter to protect Ortiz. What does his contract look like anyway? Anybody know? I imagine Lester and Ellsbury aren't making much, but you'd be saving a lot of money unloading Ramirez. Maybe you can use that money to sign Lowell to a 3-year deal to be a cleanup hitter, then use the extra to sign another good bat. If J.D. Drew comes around, there's another lethal lineup. Couple that with Santana + Beckett + Dice-K, the 116 Yankee wins from 98 is in severe jeopardy....

[dmbgodagirl41]

:lol

I'm just making sure everyone knows that I still want to.

[LaDude]

Can the Red Sox use that new rule to replace Gagne on the ALCS roster?

[groton]

I'm just making sure everyone knows that I still want to.

Yeah I know

[groton]

only if he was injured and who would you add ?

[LaDude]

only if he was injured and who would you add ?

I'm sure we could find something wrong with him! Or just have someone take him out back...:)

I'll take Tavarez or Snyder at this point.

[dmbgodagirl41]

So a guy I work with has season tickets to the Sox.

He told me that if the Sox make the World Series, he'll give me two tickets to whatever game (not 7 if its in boston and goes to that) at Fenway for Brady in our league.

Fuck that guy. What the hell!

Wow, he is taking fantasy football to a whole new level.

Isn't that HORRIBLE?! :lol I started laughing and he said "no, seriously" and now I can't!

I said that I can't do that because the bragging rights for the next year is so important to me. Then he said "I'm gonna find your mom and tell her you turned it down".

She'd be so pissed :lol

Do you also cheer against the Pats if it benefits your fantasy football team?

[LaDude]

Dougie's going deep tonight!

[dmbgodagirl41]

Do you also cheer against the Pats if it benefits your fantasy football team?

:lol what makes you think 1/2 my fantasy teams aren't Patriots players? ;)

But no, I'd never EVER cheer against the Patriots. Unless it result in a Menage-Brady in my bed.

[SoRight24]

I would forfeit the rest of my games in Fantasy for World Series tickets.

[dmbgodagirl41]

I would forfeit the rest of my games in Fantasy for World Series tickets.

But you don't understand the magnitue of bragging rights that comes with winning this league. During the draft EVERY one of the guys was making fun of me, telling me to pack it up, and to get ready for the ass raping.

I'm currently 6-0 winning every week by at least 150. I won this past week by 205. All the guys are teaming up and doing trades to somehow beat me.

It's close. Sox world series tickets.....shutting some douchebags up and getting the RESPECT.

what to doooooooo.

Here's how I would imagine conversations to go ...

Guys in your league - "Katie, we smoked you . You suck at fantasy football because you're a girl. Yada, yada, yada."

Katie - "I traded Brady to tank in this league so I could go to the World Series. It was the time of my life. Have you ever been?"

Any guy in his right mind would immedietly shut the fuck up. You would have life bragging rights.

[LaDude]

Last year I traded Brady for a handle of Captain Morgan. I thought that was a good trade! World Series tickets! You have to take that deal!

Plus - if your team is really that good, and keep winning by 150 points, you don't need Brady!

[dmbgodagirl41]

shh take it
and take me with your Extra :)
:lol no offense, Greggo, but my mother would seriously punch me in the face before selling me to gypsies if I didn't take her. Or, I would take my grandmother....or I would give them two the two tickets, because they are the HUGEST red sox fans that I know. My gram would have to go, yeah. She's 86 and LIVES for the Red Sox.

:lol sadly, that is how it would go. Or rather than "because you're a girl" it would be "because you got lucky by drafting LT, Brady, Moss, Braylon Edwards, Houshmandzadeh, Jones-Drew, Chicago D, Stover, Adalius Thomas, etc. Who would have thought they'd be good?

Yeah but what if they lost? There are so many factors! AAAAAAAHHHHHH!
(And to be honest, the world series kicks off the day after I get home from surgery, so the likelihood of me actually going is pretty much non-existant anyways :shrug. Maybe that's why I feel this way, cuz I know I couldn't go even if I did take it.)

I totally understand
I took my Mom too Game Three of the ALDS in 05 her first time ever at Fenway whata bad game to take her
so If i got WS tickets I'd have to take my Grandfather he been to WS games
but never a Redsox One he went to 84 San Diego vs Det(with my Uncle)
and 98 Padres vs Yankee's(with Me)
Both was loses

[LaDude]

I just did some research on my history in the ALCS:

Oct 17 1999 - BOS 2, NYY 9 (0-1)
Oct 11 2003 - BOS 3, NYY 4 (0-2)
Oct 13 2003 - BOS 3, NYY 2 (1-2)
Oct 14 2003 - BOS 2, NYY 4 (1-3)
Oct 12 2004 - BOS 7, NYY 10 (1-4)
Oct 16 2004 - BOS 8, NYY 19 (1-5)
Oct 13 2007 - BOS 6, CLE 13 (1-6)

1 and 6!!! I should stop going. :confused

The good news is I'm not in Cleveland tonight! :)

[dowling25]

well now talking of tickets. so my boss at where i work knows the umpire Tim McClelland. They are actually pretty good friends, and my boss and my dad are good friends too. They have been getting tickets from McClelland to the World Series for the past few years. When the sox went to the world series in 04 my dad had cancer and couldn't go.

now McClelland is getting them tickets for the american league ballpark. So i'm hoping that the Red Sox win because my dad is a huge red sox fan and would love to go this year.

i am praying for the sox to come back.

[thebestauntie]

Katie I don't understand why you get so much grief from guys regarding knowing about sports. I've been a sports fan most of my life and I can't recall a time when I got the "you don't know anything because you're a girl" thing. :shrug

[LaDude]

Here we go! GO SOX!

[LaDude]

Paul Byrd - worst delivery ever.

[thebestauntie]

Certainly one of the most annoying deliveries!:lol

[SoRight24]

Well this is just fucking great.

1-0 and now they have 2 on and nobody out.

Damnit Wakefield!

[maya]

:hug trav man, it'll be okay!

[SoRight24]

Let that shit go through Wakefield!

Fuck you, Indians! :BANG

[smeritt]

Natural reaction. I feel for him

[thebestauntie]

I'm staying up for this, why?

[SoRight24]

I'm staying up for this, why?

I have no idea, this is such bullshit.

What happend to our offense?

[SoRight24]

Natural reaction. I feel for him

I know it is, but damn! :BANG

[thebestauntie]

I have no idea, this is such bullshit.

What happend to our offense?
I don't know, they took an early vacation. It's pissing me off. :BANG :BANG

[smeritt]

I can't yell at pitchers for that, I'd do the same thing. Especially when you're on the ropes. As a pitcher you want to make every out to prove you're worthy. So you catch that ball its a potential double play. Natural reaction.

[SoRight24]

Wonderful.

3-0.

[SoRight24]

Our pitching has gone down the shitter, obviously.

The only one we can count on is Beckett.

[thebestauntie]

I can't yell at pitchers for that, I'd do the same thing. Especially when you're on the ropes. As a pitcher you want to make every out to prove you're worthy. So you catch that ball its a potential double play. Natural reaction.
I don't blame Wake for trying to go after that ball, yeah it's natural reaction. You do what you think you can to make the out. It's the friggin offense that's making me crazy!!!!

[SoRight24]

I don't blame him, I am just frustrated!

The Indians are catching all the damn breaks! :BANG

[SoRight24]

We HAVE to hold them to three runs here.

[SoRight24]

Game fucking over!

:BANG :BANG

[thebestauntie]

This is disgusting. I'm going to lay down now.

[justinandimcool]

Wow. That wasn't a break. That was just a rocket.

[BellybuttonKid]

Never been a fan of Delcarmen...

[SoRight24]

Fuck this shit man.

I am so highly pissed off right now.

[jmudmbphan]

Boston is just have one bad blow up inning in all these L's

[BellybuttonKid]

Boston is just have one bad blow up inning in all these L's

Nice coherant sentence...


Get lost.

[jmudmbphan]

its the playoffs and boston has the 2nd best offense in the league

:confused

[jmudmbphan]

Nice coherant sentence...


Get lost.

grammar police on the scene.

and, no.

[BellybuttonKid]

and, no.

Maybe you can send me some more pms trying to harrass me?

[BellybuttonKid]

grammar police on the scene.

and, no.


I think it's funny that you are here and you don't even add anything constructive to anything anyway.

[SoRight24]

Fuck you, Delcarmen.

How hard is it to get one fucking out??!!!

[BellybuttonKid]

grammar police on the scene.

and, no.


I think it's funny that you are here and you don't even add anything constructive to anything anyway.

[chr35919]

unfuckingbelievable.

[justinandimcool]

I bet Beckett could've prevented this.

[SoRight24]

Hey, how about you focus on the hitter instead of the runner on first base jackass.

[chr35919]

wakefield looked good for awhile...

[chr35919]

I bet Beckett could've prevented this.yeah, but then what about the next game?

[SoRight24]

yeah, but then what about the next game?

Well we're about to not have to worry about their being a next game, if this keeps up.

[BellybuttonKid]

I'm still glad we have Beckett going tomorrrow...

Who knows how he would have done on short rest, and Wake did good for a while, Delcarmen isn't supposed to SUCK this bad though.

But Im glad we have Beckett going tomorrow against CC rather than Wake or Schil or DiceK

[crashintome202]

I bet Beckett could've prevented this.
beckett can't pitch every game...

[SoRight24]

GOD FUCKING DAMINT Delcarmen.

Get that assclown off of the mound.

[justinandimcool]

beckett can't pitch every game...

He pitches Game 4 on three days rest and does a half decent job...gets full rest for Game 7. As opposed to Beckett pitching Game 5 with no shot at pitching Game 7. I don't see how you could go with the latter, especially witih Wakefield struggling, but apparently Francona did.

I'm sure it's been argued in here.

[crashintome202]

or the red sox can hit an old man throwing 84 mph junk... its up to them

[SoRight24]

Byrd shut the Yankees down.

[justinandimcool]

or the red sox can hit an old man throwing 84 mph junk... its up to them

Yeah. But it's best not to rely on hitting in the playoffs, especially with Byrd's performance against the Yankees (and in the regular season). It's just in the best interest of the Sox to start Josh Game 4. It prevents a matchup with CC, (who is still good, by the way), and gives Boston the opportunity to start Josh again (one of the best playoff pitchers of our generation) for Game 7.

Wakefield isn't even 100% healthy. Not to mention his ERA is through the roof. I feel it was such an obvious decision.

[GavMan33]

1) This game is far from over

2) I'm shocked that Delcarmen pitched that long. The home run was left up in the zone, and hit hard. The pitch to Lofton was up in the zone, and got hammered. At that point they had to have known what was happening. The guy just didn't have it tonight; the Red Sox should have recognized it, and put someone else in....

EDIT: Like I said, this is far from over. There's 1 back for you....

[SoRight24]

There is a start!

YOUK!

[jmudmbphan]

I think it's funny that you are here and you don't even add anything constructive to anything anyway.


I pointed out that the red sox are playing well, yet seem to let it fall apart for just one inning each of their L's..

and you told me to get lost...hmm....

[SoRight24]

Come on Papi!

[SoRight24]

Hell yeah!

Back to back!

[justinandimcool]

No one said this game was over :lol

[SoRight24]

This is exactly what we needed if we had any hopes of coming back.

[jmudmbphan]

cleveland bullpen is nasty

[SoRight24]

Lets go Manny!

[aeroshady]

wow back to back to back

[justinandimcool]

Dude...that's like...amazing....man.

[SoRight24]

FUCK YES!!!!!!!!

Back to back to back!

[GavMan33]

OK, I like being right. But now this is starting to piss me off.....

EDIT: Out of curiosity, is this the same order the 4 in a row came off Chase Wright? I kinda think it is....

EDIT2: Eh Buck just said it. Varitek was in on that

[justinandimcool]

This makes me appreciate 7 run leads more. Man. Cleveland people should be counting their blessings...for each an every one of those runs.

[SoRight24]

Nice work JD.

[SoRight24]

Well that was quick, damn.

Hey, we got 3 of them back though!

[aeroshady]

If the Red Sox find a way to win this game it will be crushing to the Indians.

[SoRight24]

We can not let them score ANY more runs though.

[SoRight24]

Lead off walk.

Come on Lester, we have to hold here.

[SoRight24]

How the hell did I know Lugo would hit into a double play?

He is so useless...

[aeroshady]

Sox are fucked. They should put in Elsberry

[justinandimcool]

Pwned.


Lugo is always worthless in big games.

[GavMan33]

Did you guys just hear Buck blathering about the first 4-5-3 DP in postseason history? Who the hell cares?

And that was as good a leap and catch as you'll ever see

[SoRight24]

Juliout(s) NEVER comes through.

He has hit into more DP's than he has turned this year.

[justinandimcool]

Did you guys just hear Buck blathering about the first 4-5-3 DP in postseason history? Who the hell cares?

And that was as good a leap and catch as you'll ever see

That's kinda cool :lol 4-5-3

I pointed out that the red sox are playing well, yet seem to let it fall apart for just one inning each of their L's..

and you told me to get lost...hmm....


Was that before or after you went out of your way to find me and pm me trying to look for an argument?

[demar727]

Manny is a great example why i hate cocky baseball players


hit the fucking ball and run

dont just stand there and watch the ball

it would be funny to see the play hit the fence and not go out




btw.. he looks like carter

[SoRight24]

Yeah, that was a nice catch by Assdribble Cabrera.

[GavMan33]

That's kinda cool :lol 4-5-3

Hi, my name's Justin. I'm easily amused :lol

I assume you're talking about Manny? In which case I guess vaguely he does. But I like Carter a lot better, and he looks better too. Manny just looks like a bum....

[SoRight24]

Shut the fuck up and go to the dugout Kenny.

[justinandimcool]

Hi, my name's Justin. I'm easily amused :lol

I'm amused by YOUR FACE.

[demar727]

Shut the fuck up and go to the dugout Kenny.

question..

what if that was your team?

[SoRight24]

question..

what if that was your team?

They are up by 4 runs.

And it was strike anyways.

[GavMan33]

I'm amused by YOUR FACE.

Damn kid. Where'd your sense of humor go off to? Orange Juice is already draining you of your patience?

[demar727]

They are up by 4 runs.

but like everyonein this thread said


the game isnt over yet

[justinandimcool]

They are up by 4 runs.

And it was strike anyways.

Eh. It's part of the game. Besides. 4 runs on the Red Sox doesn't feel too safe right now if I'm Cleveland.

[SoRight24]

Why am I the only fucking Sox fan in here?

:lorraine

[justinandimcool]

Damn kid. Where'd your sense of humor go off to? Orange Juice is already draining you of your patience?

:lorraine

So I'm having an off day. When did you become so mean?

Everytime Xavier loses a game you'll never hear the end of it from me. :devil :evil

[GavMan33]

:lorraine

So I'm having an off day. When did you become so mean?

Everytime Xavier loses a game you'll never hear the end of it from me. :devil :evil

Relax baby, just bustin balls. Sorry for your bad day, we all have them. Hope you feel better....

[SoRight24]

That should just about do it.

[justinandimcool]

Relax baby, just bustin balls. Sorry for your bad day, we all have them. Hope you feel better....

:lol Thanks. I will. College applications just stressful that's all. This game has cheered me up though.

[aeroshady]

well I know everyone will be talking about 2004, but I am a realist...this was it. Unless the Sox come back in the 9th they are done.

[smeritt]

You best not be going to USC boy. We might have to almost beat you again next year!

[neumdogg]

You best not be going to USC boy. We might have to almost beat you again next year!
Don't talk to a future-Trojan like that!

[smeritt]

Not my fault Stoops let you off the hook. Hey were down with 40 seconds left. Lets throw little doink passes behind the line of scrimmage. You were scared and you know it

[BellybuttonKid]

Lowell, WHY would you swing at the first pitch especially if it wasnt perfect????

[BellybuttonKid]

Greeeaaat, Drew is up...

I bet he'll roll his wrists over and dribble to 2B, or he'll half swing and pop out to the left side...

[justinandimcool]

CC Sabathia looks like Shaq.

[justinandimcool]

Hopefully I can get to USC. But the applications are almost done :D

[SoRight24]

This game is over.

And unless we pull another miracle out of our ass ala 04, so is this series.

[chr35919]

absolutely pathetic.

edit: i feel like a yankees fan last week.

[aeroshady]

Once again Baseball is dead to me. On to Hockey.

[justinandimcool]

I feel just as happy for Paul Byrd as I do for Todd Helton. Such great guys to root for.

[SoRight24]

The Bruins are 3-2, things are looking up for hockey.

[aeroshady]

The Bruins are 3-2, things are looking up for hockey.

I am going to the home opener on Thursday I can't wait!

[SoRight24]

I am going to the home opener on Thursday I can't wait!

That is awesome man, I wish I could go to the Rangers game on Saturday.

That would be sweet. :thumbsup

[yankees26mlb]

if the indians win they will have quite a claim.....beating both the yanks and sox in the playoffs in 1 year

[aeroshady]

That is awesome man, I wish I could go to the Rangers game on Saturday.

That would be sweet. :thumbsup

Going to that one too haha, last year I went to the B's first 8 home games...I live so close to TD Banknorth Arena that I a can't stay away haha.

[chr35919]

Once again Baseball is dead to me. On to Hockey.don't give up quite yet...
