April 4th vs. The New York Yankees: Opening Day

[Dojji]

So...confidence in Papelbon?

 

Absolutely. but not without a bit of irrational skepticism.

 

I would love to see some vintage Papelbon tonight.

[Youk Of The Nation]

They're like all the planes taunting King Kong

[ORS]

So...confidence in Papelbon?

It's about as strong as the chances of a cheeseburger making it through the night in the same room as Joba and CC.

I'd still rather watch, but I have to say that the new MLB At Bat thing is pretty nifty.

So...confidence in Papelbon?

 

Definately, hes had all off season to think about his last appearance.

[ZonaSoxFan]

So...confidence in Papelbon?

 

Can I have nervous confidence? Is that even a thing?

It's pretty slick, and GDA doesn't cost that much.

[yeszir]

At bat should come free if you buy MLB.tv

I call it cautious optimism.

[Spudboy]

I never got why the red sox play Sweet Caroline in boston.

 

Me either. Maybe he should have sung Kentucky Woman.

So true. But so not the point. Ha.

 

True.

 

Sweet Caroline isn't that great a song. I wouldn't even care about the song if it wasn't associated with my beloved team.

 

Contradictory. But I know what you mean. It's all marketing anyway.

[Dipre]

Pretty sure it comes with Premium.

[yeszir]

Pretty sure it comes with Premium.

 

....which I have. Hmmmm.

[Dojji]

if Scutaro's like this on a regular basis, I could learn to love Marco Scutaro.

[soxfan17881]

That is the case.

[suns]

Me either. Maybe he should have sung Kentucky Woman.

 

Not a song as far as I know.

[italstallianion]

I think this is the most activity that this site has seen in a while.

[Dojji]

Well DUHH, the season just started dood.

[ZonaSoxFan]

According to Wikipedia, which I realize can often be wrong, Sweet Caroline is played simply because the audio girl liked it and played it. However, so did Red Sox Nation.. so it stuck.

[Dipre]

....which I have. Hmmmm.

 

Either i'm crazy, or i'm using it right now.

[yeszir]

Dammit how do I get at bat if I have premium

First game doesn't count, they like to promote their new apps and junk with early season promos.

[italstallianion]

Even so, I didn't expect this much traffic. I've seen posts from people I haven't seen in ages. Usually I'll see something like 50 or so new posts at most, but today the counter got over 500. I hope this keeps up throughout the season.

They've kind of merged it with Gameday Premium. There's a little place in gameday where you can switch over.

There should be a link on the MLB main page.

[Dojji]

Joba getting tired already. Speaking as a fellow member of the morbidly obese community, that just happens when you can't keep the pounds off.

Offseason traffic always tapers off. We won't see 500+ post game threads every day, but there's at least something to talk about now.

[suns]

Ells should have tried to bunt his way on.

[Dojji]

COME ON PEDROIA RAP ONE OFF THE WALL! LET'S GET SOME BREATHING ROOM!

Pretty sure Premium users have MLB AB. I'll try it again tomorrow.

[ZonaSoxFan]

My gramma just looked at the TV when Ellsbury was up, and said: "Ooh. He's cute. I hope he doesn't spit...............And that he hits the ball. I like it when they hit the ball."

 

Maybe you had to be here, but it was pretty awesome.
