The Sox are done!!!
I have to admit,
I fell into the big Red Sox trap before this baseball season, With the additions they made in the off season and with what Should have been the BEST starting pitching staf in baseball, and the lack of quality starting pitching the Yanyees should have had so far:confused: I though for sure the Sox would win their division easily!!! Oh well........................................:laugh s: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . JUST 1 MONTH TILL THE REAL SPORT STARTS UP:btu: :cheers: :btu: :cheers: OAKLAND RAIDERS FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just wonder if it's going to be Rich Gannon or Kerry Collins starting!!!:happy: :happy: :happy: :happy: Raider Ronnie |
Holy shiite and it isn't even the allstar break :eek:
You guys are hurt :laughs: |
Yup! Stick a fork in me too.....they downright blow! Francona will be gone end of season in my opinion....may be a little premature but with this payroll and a limited amount of time to make it pay off......the management team will not be screwing around! (Especially if Lou Pinella is available):D
Did I just hear someone kick-off!:D |
I thought the last Yankeez game was rock bottom. This is awful...
-spence |
yeah, and the braves game was under the rock.
|
Come on!!...what are you guys, French? You can't surrender this soon. Your season ain't over yet. Well, maybe it is, but it won't be as much fun bashing you guys if you just quit. I want you guys to start rooting again. Don't worry about the curse; it's probably nonsense anyway, right? It's been 85 years...you guys are way overdue. Look how good you look on paper....Now go have a cold beer on me, rent the 1918 highlight video and COWBOY UP!!
It ain't over till it's over. (but the smart $$'s on the Yankees...again):laughs: |
I definately think this is their year :rolleyes:
-spence |
maybe they could rid themselves of their demons by burying their bats and gloves(and maybe a player or two) somewhere in center field, shave thier heads( with the exception of nomahhh), and chant mantras.
|
They'd be better off if they buried Jeter and Mo.
|
?????????
|
????????
Yeah, that was a great freakin' game today!!!!!:af: Man, they suck!:smash:
|
they can't possibly be this bad, can they? i've never been about to raise the flag this early.:crying:
|
Wave it my friend.....they are so done! Francona should be replaced over the all-star break with a temporary.......unless they can get a good man in there at this time of the season......Pinella should be available at seasons end! Francona has no balls!:smash:
|
NO FAITH !!!!!!!!!:smash: :smash:
|
None....zero....bupkus! I am gonna let guys like you wave the pom poms until your arms get tired and you realize that this team is "well done"!:smash:
|
Last year wheren't they like 7 1/2 games behind the yanks around this time? Come now have some faith.
|
There you go SKD.....another pom pom waver for the ranks!;) Did you guys grow up here in Boston or are you new in town?:smash: Seen this too many times myself......growing tired of the Red Sox and baseball in general!:af:
|
i hate to give up more than anybody! it's just that i see no life, emotion, or will to win with this edition. i've followed them my whole life and i just don't have a good feeling about these guys. i sure hope to hell that they prove me wrong!
|
What made winning the superbowl or any game that you sit through where the team your routing for seems to be blown out(or underdog) comes back in the end..... OH SO DAM SWEET VICTORY! Then you meet your bud's..... and they stopped watching hours ago. I luv rubbing it in. Of course its so easy to jump on the wagon, buy a hat and t-shirt, and call your self a die hard NewEngland fan.
.............isn't this part of the reason why sox nation(USA...literialy) is what it is..... have faith, even in defeat, it feels good to route for the good guys $NOT$THE$EVIL$EMPIRE$. How many times have you said one more cast.....and that cast was a sweet big bass?:wave: It doesn't happen that often but it does happen. |
Redsox Nation is a myth created and perpetuated by a few highly visible Boston journalists, politicians and Hollywood types. It is 100% media hype, except for the New England region. Don't believe me? Check other regional newspapers,media outlets, on-line sports venues, etc. You won't see or hear a word unless they're playing the Yankees, or it's September and they're close. Then you see the same old farts come out of the woodwork all over TV and hear the same old, pathetic, wornout BS about long-suffering Bosox fans, yada,yada,yada. It's all very stale, lame and played out.
|
myth? why is it that at every away game i watch(all of them) i see and hear MANY sox fans? are they just perpetuating the myth?
|
MANY fans? They're transplanted New Englanders. And people looking for face time on tv.
|
I kind of agree. I just wish the Sox media, fans, players would just lighten up a bit on themselves and grit it out and play hard. Accept that when you do that, it doesn't guarantee that you are gonna win. Sports and entertainment are part of the TV sports package and it is a shame that all this swagger and posturing is a friggin act that is being exploited.
You have to keep gritting down and stop pointing so many fingers and BE Patient, etc. Influences such as wagging tongues and showboating (loss of focus) royally screw some games through errors and incorrect managerial decisions. The Sox are a quality ball club with a long history, I personally would like to see them turn it around have a WS winning season. Put all the bull#^^^^& to rest. Applaud the season, the players, the coaches and the fans. You guys definetly deserve it. It isn't easy to win a WS and you guys know that yes, it takes some hatred of other teams to keep the focus and assist in the grit of the game, and that is large part of the big picture of winning it all. The Sox better be learning. There is a ton of baseball left (85ish games). Don't forget to keep your eye on Tampa bay :laughs: We have 7 or 8 games against them in the next month and so do you. Some great ballgames being played lately. Yankees have to pcik it up and use the experience in their favor. Got lucky again. Divisional competition getting mostly beat while they lost. All about numbers. :( :( we gotta do better than that. Mets can hit the long ball baby. :eek: |
I for one am about ready to cancell my Red Sox "Fan For Life" membership card.......just can't take it anymore! The fragile egos of these multi-million dollar, overpaid pains in my a$$ has me at my wits end!:af: Let me tell you, when I was a kid, it was alot easier to enjoy the purity of the game of baseball because all we cared about was what was going on between the lines!!!! Nobody knew or cared about a players off field shenanigans (not that many of them had any). Thier family situations or contract negotiations........nobody heard any of that crap.......it is all wearing me down and I could really care less.......if they won the championship this year or not......I probably will not really give a crap one way or the other!!!!:af: The game just ain't the same!:smash:

BF, I couldn't agree more. typical examples last week at the Stadium: nomar sitting on the bench while his teammates were on the top step of the dugout, and jackass Manny with water cups taped to his ears egging on Yankee fans. Too many pouting, selfish, look-at-me, low-class players in all sports today.
|
Amen brother!;)
|
BF,,I am a 48 year old fan..Always lived around here...They do it to us every year..They always seem to suck part of the year and then turn it on..I guess me & Goose will be the only ones waving the pom poms,,,:bounce: ..GO RED SOX :D :huh:
Of to the Canal to fish in the rain...:cool: |
Hope you hooked up SKD....problem is when the Sox are hot its the start of the season and then they can't keep up the pace and they slide! The old saying goes, "It ain't how you start, its how you finish!". I guess we will have to wait and see how much gas they got left in the tank!:rolleyes:
|
good news! red sox didn't lose today!
|
LOL..afterhours..,,,BF ...They usually have a goodspurt then a bad one,,,And then a good run ...One of these years its gotta come togeather...Remember only half the season is gone...I know its not likely but why cant the Scankyees have a bad 2nd half..:wall: ..Its going to happen sooner or later,,The odds are with the Red Sox..:soon: :think: LOL
P.S..Didn't hook up at the canal but thankfully had the rain gear.. |
