this is it

[MrHunters]

the final whooo ra. If you listen to any sports channels lately, most have already packed it in for our team. I have to say, I can't disagree with them. You hear references to 2004. Back's against the wall, time to "cowboy up" (so glad that expression is gone), but I just don't see them doing it again. Of course who saw it coming the first time, right?

When are you going to call it a season.

0-1?

0-3?

0-5?


I'll probably close the book on this season when Francona gives Beckett the hook.

Good news is, Celts are just around the corner and they look pretty exciting.

[MrHunters]

well he has already said he's starting keilty for drew. so there's a plus.

but i don't get why he's staying with crisp.
a)he's gone after this season so why worry about is "feelings"
b)he hasn't done squat all season, he had a few good weeks but that was pretty much it
c)he just plain stinks.

Dead Men Walking......

In the words of Manny,
"It's not the end of the world"

[afterhours]

wtf did'nt he slide?????? nobody told him to???? pretty bush....

[MrHunters]

or put a good hit on anyway....

i've never seen a more automatic two outs than lugo and crisp... it may as well be a double play every 8th batter

[spence]

I don't understand this non-HR call on Manny...

How the heck can a ball exit at nearly same angle it enters if it hits a vertical surface?

i.e. it can't...I'd like another run please

-spence

[MrHunters]

if it was still in the yard it would have bounced down.

and i was wrong... not only are they a double play combo they are now a triple play combo, if that is even possible.

bunt, bunt, pathetic swing - k
double play -

boy im glad terry little is STIcKing with his guys!!!!!!!!!!

[MrHunters]

you know he's sitting on the bench thinking "at least i can bunt"

[MrHunters]

maybe that lovers quarrel will light something under their arse.. but its tek and my two favorite players again!!!

[MrHunters]

guess not. bring back willy!!!

[Surfcastinglife]

wow those curveballs by beckett have been so nasty tonight. and a low pitch count to boot. too bad he cant pitch every night ;D

[MrHunters]

if they don't put him in tonight, that's just plain stubbornness.

we ain't out of the woods by any stretch of the imagination.

Does anyone know the stat for being down 3-1 and coming back?

Teams have come back from 3-1 and 3-0 holes 5 times in the LCS, and two of those were by the Sox.

Against the Angels in 1986, and down 0-3 to the Yankees in 2004.

That was the worst game I think I ever heard McCarver do.....he couldn't get ANYTHING right last night.

"Beckett Retired 6 in a row.......No wait a minute he's retired 10 in a row........well actually if he gets this guy it will be 10 in a row"

WTF I can look that confused for 1/2 the money he's getting.
