Thank you for doing this. I need somewhere to rant...and also somewhere to remind me that today's a new day and a new game.

 

WIN THE f***ING GAME, AND SHOW YOU HAVE SOME HEART. GODDAMN IT.

[TheKilo]

Seriously. No mojo in this GT. Keep it simple, and win the ballgame.

[zackredsox]

[Sox Fan on Cape]

Just win. I won't be watching this one. I'm off to the Cape in 12 hours for a week!!

 

Why is it when people say that the're going to the Cape, it sounds like their going to some primitive outback settlement. Trust me, we have NESN, cable, the internet, running water, and all the modern conviences. Don't forget to check out some Cape League action. Have a good time.

[ORS]

Manny now has 3 more GIDPs than homers this year. Cut the s***, you dingbat.

I'll be driving to the Cape during the game. I'll see all the other games, just not this one. I know it's not caveman village, I go there quite often there. I'll be catching a couple Cape League games too. Nice place.

[riverside sluggers]

Tito is giving Manny the day off because of "intestinal turmoil"? Wily Mo in left field. Dice-K wont have to face Ordonez, Rodriguez and Polanco as they all get the day off

 

With the bullpen being used a lot the last 2 games, Wakefield will be in the bullpen ready if they need him

[Youk Of The Nation]

Win.

[Youk Of The Nation]

f***ing Jeff Bailey again.

[riverside sluggers]

Not a good way to set the tone, Sox top of the order down on just 11 pitches

[zackredsox]

dam 1-0 tigers

 

this aint a good start at all

[riverside sluggers]

Dice-K has gotten 9 runs of support in his last 6 starts. Not any help that his offense behind him has scored just 4 runs in the last 23 innings, last 13 innings have been held scoreless

[a700hitter]

Sheffield was the one guy in the lineup that they should not let beat us. Where is the game prep that Varitek is so famous for.

[riverside sluggers]

I thought Wily Mo kills fastballs? Lately he's being K'd on fastballs right down the middle

[a700hitter]

Wily Mo K's. What a surprise. It's time for him to play a full season. If nothing else, he would shatter the single season record for k's.

[riverside sluggers]

Dice's fastball is sitting in the high 80s today

[a700hitter]

Dice's fastball is sitting in the high 80s today

He'll be okay if he doesn't throw any more strikes to Sheff.

[zackredsox]
