4/5 @ Cleveland

[yeszir]

Well said. I guess thats what I was trying to say. To me the big game is what I look at. To me Pedro is Peyton Manning unreal talent only won once. Schilling is Brady 3 championships.

 

Either guy is awesome.

 

You're obviously not a fan of Boston sports.

[Lackeyfan38]

I clearly am not!! I mean I give so much man love to Tom Brady and Curt Schilling. I mean how dare I! Schilling is the only player who time after time ass raped the Yankees,

 

I'm sorry I'm not Boston fan enough for you.

 

I Guarentee you if Schill wasn't a Redsox pitcher it be 93 years and counting.

[chrisohio1978]

I agree whole heartedly Guardians were filling their seats and owner is loaded and he traded all of his top players away for not much. Very sad was at josh's last great game in Cleveland game 5 of the ALCS and the air was let out of that franchise on that night and I loved it.

[boston22407]

No push-ups for me thru 1 game

[chrisohio1978]

see you tomo for a 9-4 victory while dice goes 6 and 1/3 giving up 3 and we bust out early up 5 nothing.

 

 

Race to the Series starts on April 6 we will look back and laugh at this bull

[Lackeyfan38]

This post is for all you Sox fans especially Yeszir and bigpapienfuego.

 

You guys are too spoiled. Yes I'm also a Redsox fans but it's no secret I like Hockey alot more then baseball. Point is as follows.

 

When you pay admission and walk into Fenway you over pay for a beer and maybe a sausage and pepper grinder and guess what happens? Mr Henry and CO. INVEST YOUR HARD EARNED SPENT MONEY into the team. How's that feel? Good doesn't it?

 

When the Redsox miss the playoffs you get a full page ad in the paper appologizing and promising to do better. You know what I get when choking 3-0 series and 3-0 game leads? I get a email stating my ticket prices have been increased! I get it right up my ass and cause I'm a f***ing idiot i re new the tickets

 

so please guys before you knock me admiring Schill and Brady understand that my franchise is truley a joke to our great city/state. Never ever take the Redsox for granted!! Your time and love is re invested.

My time and everything else bring me more Claude and more head scratching defeats.

[yeszir]

I'm just saying that if you want to convince Boston fans that Schilling is more valuable than Pedro, don't state that Manning is better than Brady in the process.

Umm? I did the complete oppisite. I said Schill is like Brady 3 rings each! You had it all wrong.

[BigPapiEnFuego]

What does Hockey have to do with anything? Seriously?

Mis understanding. Yeszir thought I said Manning was better then Brady. When I said the other way around.

 

And since you didn't get the main point I'll make it very easy for you. Bruins cups in my lifetime 0 Redsox 2. Schilling 2. Pedro 1. Pedro before Schilling 0. Get it? When I see winners I tend to respect them cause my team doesn't know about or have those.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

They're both good.

Exactly.

[suns]

Why would we get mad? Cheer all you want just don't go crazy if you win saying s*** how "We're going to be good this year after beating the Sox" or "I told you the Guardians were going to win". To be fair you think the Guardians are going to win every game they're bound to win some right? If you're so sure the Guardians will take the series put your money where your mouth is and lets have a avatar bet. You should be use to it already since you pretty much lost to every fan outside of the pats on talkpats. If you accept I'll even let you pick the duration of how long the loser has to where it. That'll make things a little interesting.

 

I'm I still allowed to back out of me saying I'm not gonna do this and actually do this?

[BigPapiEnFuego]

You're giving Schilling too much credit. Anyone who thinks that the 2004 world series win is because of him is a f***ing idiot. So much went on that year in so many different areas. For a lot of that season it looked like that team wouldn't even make the playoffs. Too many peope make a big deal out of that stupid sock thing(i'm not trying to diminish what he did). This isn't a football game where Brady can put the entire team on his back. This is baseball, everything needs to be working in unison for things to go right, and that's just what happened in the end of 04 and the last 4 games of those series. And Schilling wasn't some dominating factor in 2007.

 

Forget it though, not arguing this further

Lol really? You wait until after you win? That's not a bet.

Yeah Pedro would have pitched us home in game 6. He's done it so many playoff games in the past. Face it no Schill no trophy.

 

Lets not forget in game 5 he left trailing and Ortiz and company had to rally them back. Schill on one leg gave you 7 ip 1 er. I know you a huge Pedro guy. But if I have to win 1 game. Schill is getting the ball everytime over Pedro.

[example1]

I have nothing good to say about this team right now.

 

I wish I could fast forward 2-3 weeks when the team gets back to .500.

[italstallianion]

I wish that I could fast forward through various parts of life in general. Then again I also wish that I could travel back in time and kick Alfred Tennyson in the balls, but if I'll add that to the list of dreams that I'll never be able to accomplish.

Got to take it one game at a time. Can't worry about getting to 500 till a game is won.

Yep, we just have to deal with things as they come. Can't change the past.

 

You might go as far as to say it is ours but to do and die.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Actually, seeing as that is one of my favorite poems of all time, I think I found that signature that has been eluding me for so long.

I have no idea what you are talking about.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Of course you don't.

[italstallianion]

Phew, if you chose the one by Alfred Tennyson that I was thinking of, I'd have to kick you in the balls too.

[snydersminipretzels]

I think the Red Sox could have won the 2007 World Series without Curt Schilling. Maybe not 2004, but they were much better in 2007.

[italstallianion]

YOTN, I thought that you were going to use that poem as your signature?

[a700hitter]

In each of Schilling's starts, the Red Sox offense totally overwhelmed the opposing pitcher, except when he was pounded by the Guardians in Game 2, and when he held the Rockies to a run in 5.1 innings in Game 2 of the World Series.

 

Even if the Red Sox lose that Game 2, it's pretty unlikely that they lose that Series, because of the enormous talent gap.

We won twice with him and zero times without him.

[ORS]

We won twice with him and zero times without him.

In this case, this is a correlation/causation fallacy. They won for a large variety of reasons, and Schilling was a contributor, but they didn't win "because they had Schilling".

 

Arizona, on the other hand, is very ulikely to have won without Schilling in their series vs. NY, because he was at another level during that postseason. The Sox won with Schilling Lite.
