The Official 2010 Hot Stove Thread.

I stopped listening to EEI.

 

I hate Felger but I like the fact he is objective. He is not afraid to criticize his own mother.

Felger's retarded. He's the Goldhammer of New England.

I live out of town and can't get any regular Sox updates without downloading WEEI podcasts, sadly. I also listen to Felger etc., but I'm more used to WEEI.

I'm sick and tired of coming in second on signing big names.

 

Did someone else get Gonzalez? If not they didn't come in second.

[soxfan17881]

Shut up. They owe you nothing. You're not a priority.

 

Why the f*** do so many fans have this ridiculous sense of entitlement?

 

What makes you the expert? Why should they not want to please their fans?

 

They owe me nothing? Right.

[GoBruins2011]

Felger's retarded. He's the Goldhammer of New England.

 

Why is he ratarded? Cause he calls it how he see's it? With the exception of his love for Tuukka Rask (who sucks soooo much ass and should be banned from NHL arenas) He's pretty accurate.

[GoBruins2011]

Sox got Duckworth chill out guys

[WhiskeyBreath]

Felger and Mazz are terrible. Good thing they don't have any competition.

Why do so many people attack others for being pissed off?

 

Forums like these are for fans to talk about their team. Good or bad. People are pissed off, let them be.

 

Why does everything have to be an insult, even if passive?

[soxfan17881]

Sure. I'll be happy if they do manage to get him. But I'm tired of this. My opinion may not be rational or logical, but right now that's more than I'm capable of. I'm just pissed off and, yeah, I'll get over it. But the whole thing just strikes me a insanely stupid, and I can't help thinking that way for now.

We as fans owe them nothing. Thats why I refuse to give those stiffs in the front office a Penny. For now on the only time I watch NESN is for the Bruins games. As far as the Redsox heres to 75 or less wins and Henry selling team cause he's not making much anymore. JUST LOSE BABY!!

Somebodies listening to them.

 

They have been blowing the Big Show out of the water in terms of ratings.

 

I like both shows.

 

I like the Big Show for Celtics and Patriots.

 

I like 98.5 for Sox and Bruins.

Thank you for that. I don't give a s*** if anyone agrees with me. I'm not trying to talk anyone into my opinion I'm just venting.

True. I'm one of them. The Big Show is so bad I actually listnen to Felger and Mazz.

 

I feel the same way. EEI for Pats and Celts and the Hub for Sox and B's.

LOL I found this article funny

 

 

When SI.com’s Jon Heyman first reported that the trade designed to send Adrian Gonzalez to the Red Sox was killed by a contract dispute, my reaction was: “Wow, that’s crazy.”

 

But it’s not crazy. Not at all.

 

In fact, both sides were right to balk.

 

Adrian Gonzalez hit .298/.393/.511 this past season with 31 home runs and 101 RBI while playing solid defense at the first base position. He’s 28 years old, talented as any first baseman in the league not named Pujols and looking to cash in on his impending free agency.

 

So when the Red Sox made a mandate Saturday that Gonzalez sign a long-term contract extension before finalizing the blockbuster five-player trade, he asked for a deal similar to the eight-year, $180 million behemoth that Mark Teixeira signed in December of 2008 with the Yankees.

 

Remember, the Red Sox helped drive up that Teixeira contract. But they’re not wrong for choosing to not pay it now.

 

Gonzalez will be a free agent next winter and the Yankees already have a body at first base. The Red Sox can wait another year, enter the highest bid against little competition, and get their man without offering up four quality prospects.

 

This baby was doomed from the start.

 

Intelligent baseball clubs usually work cautiously and pay attention to all the details. The Sox employ some of the top minds in the game and were right to stay level-headed in negotiations. They’ll bring Gonzalez aboard next year and keep their farm system from being depleted

 

First off , if there not willing to pony up 8 years now , then they wont do it next year .

also , this move does not deplete the farm system ..

 

also , now with Werth gone, there is no big bats on the market

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

What makes you the expert? Why should they not want to please their fans?

 

They owe me nothing? Right.

Yup. They don't owe you dick. Their job is to do what's best for the team, not to please their fans, especially considering that the Red Sox fanbase is comprised mostly of total f***tards. You don't like 'coming in second on every big name', then take your hideous sense of self-importance as a fan to another fanbase.

 

The Red Sox have been the most successful team in baseball ever since the Yankee dynasty came to a close in 2001.

[mtbykr]

5-6 years? If that is true' date=' this team will NEVER land a Super Star quality player via free agency. f***in' joke if that is true.[/quote']

 

Cafardo reporting the sox were only offering Werth 4 years, with the possibility of a club option

[GoBruins2011]

Sure. I'll be happy if they do manage to get him. But I'm tired of this. My opinion may not be rational or logical' date=' but right now that's more than I'm capable of. I'm just pissed off and, yeah, I'll get over it. But the whole thing just strikes me a insanely stupid, and I can't help thinking that way for now.[/quote']

 

Your opinion is very rational. Lets look at facts not fiction like Dipre and others.

 

1 Second highest ticket prices in baseball

2 no hitting at all s*** defense s*** talent

3 s*** managment and no chance to compete in a division they are clearly 4th in talent

4 no bullpen aging pitching

5 only sign guys that noone else wants hello cameron and atchinson and scutaro

 

 

So soxfan7881 why should you support a piece of s*** business like that? Your right to be pissed Detroit even pissed on you due to them.

Can somebody please explain to me HOW THE f*** they think they are going sign these players by only offering 4 and 5 year deals?

 

I want to punch babies.

 

Its really infuriating.

The Yankees pissed on us in 2002 2003 2005 2006 2009 2010. What the f*** are you talking about?

Was just told by a source close to Adrian Gonzalez that he's still in Boston tonight in case a deal gets done

[MANNYHOF24]

We lose Gonzales and Werth on the same day. We had a chance to be the best team in baseball. Not anymore.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

The Yankees pissed on us in 2002 2003 2005 2006 2009 2010. What the f*** are you talking about?

And yet, the Yankees have won one world championship in that span, while the Red Sox won two.

 

I repeat, dunk your head into a pot of boiling water.
