August 8th vs Texas

[Sox Fan on Cape]

Yea Tony G.. But are they gonna walk David ?

[RedSoxRooter]

The worst ones this year had to be the White Sox announcers. "Put it on the scoreboard, YEAHH".

 

*******s ruined the entire series. <_>

[Sox Fan on Cape]

Another Granny for Manny ?

[Sox Fan on Cape]

Guess not.

[schillingouttheks]

...That reminds me of Chuck Knoblauch way back when. He clearly didn't tag him, and gave no indication he meant he ran outside the base path.

[RedSoxRooter]

Well, 5-4 so far. Miller is really walking a tightrope.

[BeanTown33]

You guys have no idea how good you have it on NESN. I don't know what the Rangers' television announcers problems with the Red Sox are but they are always picking fun at the Red Sox and everything the do. Whether it's calling Varitek a cry baby (seriously) for a good three - four minutes or complaining about the grass behind home plate being too tall, it goes on and on. Food in New England is good but you can't get BBQ, Millar could have made that catch just coming in without the extra "style dive", the Rangers aren't afraid of David Ortiz because he's hitting .215 since the All-Star break (the next pitch was that 2-R HR from Papi, btw), kids in New England playing t-ball are going to end up telling their coach that they don't want in the game after the coach gave them the day off and would say "but Manny wouldn't play".

 

I'm serious. These guys must have some "beef" with the Red Sox b/c they keep putting down the Sox and their fans, and make comments about how the captain shouldn't "cry" (it was a few words as he walked away) when he gets a call against him. It's insane.... I swear to god when I switch the game over to YES for the Yankees game, it makes those announcers look FANTASTIC. No joke.

 

:rant:

 

damn that s*** sux. sorry to hear that. don and jerry are awesome. they crack me up. especially rem dawg and his doorags. its pretty bad when they make the yes announcers look good too. thats just sad.

 

that was a b/s call on papi. nice grab by miller but what a stupid stupid f***in play!

[schillingouttheks]

What was Miller thinking?!?!?! Plenty of time to look him back, then get the out. BASIC FUNDAMENTALS!!!!!

[schillingouttheks]

f*** 5-5...the fans boo Miller?

[RedSoxRooter]

I wouldn't boo Miller. He's not some scrub who sucks, he's a good caliber starter who's trying to come back from injury. He's looked tired out there.

 

 

Hey! DOUBLE PLAY!

[schillingouttheks]

Yeah, I'm not saying I would boo Miller, but some people when they're at the game don't really think about that, and boo based on nightly performance.

[schillingouttheks]

LMAO I just heard some fan yell "BOOOOO MILLAR, COME ON TOM BRADY GET A HIT!!!!" HAHAHAAH

[schillingouttheks]

lmao, and it worked. Maybe we should call him Tom Brady more often?

[BeanTown33]

tony g! 8-5 sox

[RedSoxRooter]

Mark Bellwho?

[rice for hall]

what a lineup cora petagine graffanino kapler are we fooling ourselves people this is not a championship lineup there was no way they could have ever traded manny without great repercussions

[schillingouttheks]

whoa whoa whoa, take graffanino and kapler outta there, bud. We won the world series with Mark f***ing Blowhorn, we can win it with Tony G too. Tony G is also better, and isn't striking out NEARLY as much. Oh yeah, and has an average over .300, I believe Blowhorn's was like .210 or something.

 

Kapler...don't even get me started.

[BoSox21]

ok relax, the playoff roster would have Mueller instead of Cora, Nixon instead of Kapler and Millar/Olerud instead of Petagine

 

and besides, as if the subs are doing so horribly too. who cares about name value, it's all about production

[RedSoxRooter]

Man, if this were Millar at 1b, there would be real boos coming down on Fenway right now...

[Sox fan in Tex]

schillingouttheks,

 

Yeah I also did end up sending the White Sox announcers a little something. If I was to send these guys an email, I'd be more elaborate, though.

 

But back to the game: Kapler was safe at first! C'mon!

[RedSoxRooter]

Intentional walk to.... Tony G?? :dunno:

[ORS]

More ammuntition for Bellhorn's Boo-Birds, Marky Mark can't score on that play like Tony G did.

[riverside sluggers]

god damn i tell you Tony G is the star of the game for the Red Sox, 3 for 3 raising his average to 306, scoring 3 runs, 4 RBIs including the bomb that got Sox the lead, an intentional walk, and a stolen base

[BoSox21]

I tell ya, Theo did it again with that deal for Tony G

[riverside sluggers]

oh yeah including chad bradford deal, jose cruz jr was just an unfortunate mishap tho

[RedSoxRooter]

Glad somebody brought that up. Bradford's been great so far.

[riverside sluggers]

bradford has done well very much so, i think his ERA along with Myers, both under 2.50--damn yankees beat white sox 3-2, mussina, who could be the last of the original rotation was a given it was gonna be a win for them----ok cool just 3 more outs, and remain with 3 1/2 game lead

[Sox fan in Tex]

What? Red Sox management makes a good move? Looks like joe won't be around here for a while to criticize ANYTHING. Great baserunning, we realize just how good these pickups are.... it's good to have Theo as our guide towards the World Series. :thumbsup:

[Sox fan in Tex]

The first thing I hear when I turn up the volume on the television for a second:

 

"You know it's getting late when Manny Ramirez is wearing his pajamas... wait that's his uniform. It's got to be one of the most baggiest uniforms in the game." --Josh Lewin, Rangers broadcasting announcer

[riverside sluggers]

speaking of bradford, guess who is coming to close out the 9th ---haha what is it about commentators for rangers, white sox, yankees, etc?... guess nothing else better to do since rangers have been held homerless thus far
