Changes have been made. The lists are current.

Posts have been made. However, Manny Goes Boom has two invalid picks.

1+3+9= 11 ? Is this AZ math. ? In MA, it eguals 13. This is what I'll post.

I don't know where you are coming from, or what you're used to paying. But tickets, at face value are the most expensive in all of Major League Baseball. All games have been sold out for quite some time. Most tickets will cost you 3 to 5 times face value, if you're talking Yankee tickets, check the price of gold. As far as Box 95 goes, it's better than having no ticket at all, but bring some Ben Gay ( you'll need it because the seats face front not towards home plate ). If I were you I'd look at low row bleachers, roof box, or grand stand sections 14- 30.

Post has been made lists are now current.

Heads up guys. All picks have been posted to the "Official Lists" there are three of them all located on Page 1. Check the lists and the prior posts before your's until you see a post by me that says they have been updated and are now current. From this point yout picks will just be posted. If there is a duplicate the pick will defer to the earier post. There will be no ties. I think once all the posts are in this should be a fun contest.

There's seems to be some confusion here. You indicate a win by posting a 1. If you think its a loss post 0 or leave blank.

Sox.

Due to the fact that this week contains a Red Son / Yankees series, I thought I'd have have a "Special Contest". It will be open as soon as this is posted. Entries will close at 6:00 PM EST 5/22 ( I apologize for the late post, I've been busy with other things ). This should be fairly simple for you regulars. For each game ( they are individual yet combined ) pick Red Sox win or lose, Red Sox number HR's hit, and number of Runs Scored. These three numbers will provide a total. If you're correct on all three ( four including total ) for 5/22 you will win $ 50, if not, the prize gets carried forward to the next day 5/23. The same rules would apply to 5/23. It'll be worth either $ 50 ( the game day prize ) or $ 100 ( game day + carry over ). This will continue for the 5/24 game. So the 5/24 game could be worth $50, $100, or $ 150. If there are no winners ( closest doesn't count ), the prize total will be applied to another contest(s). Rules : ................You must be a Talksox member in good standing ( Mods + Amdin. welcome ). ................You must have 150 posts or more. ................There must be at least 20 entries. ................You can't duplicate a prior poster's pick. ................You can't make more than one entry. ................After the first few posts, I'll post an "Official List" on page 1. But it's up to you to check the "Official List" and posts to make sure there isn't already a prior post matching your pick(s). Prizes : ................$ 0, $ 50, $ 100, $ 150, it's up to you. Entry Forms : Copy and Paste. Game Date ......... Win..... + ...... # HR'S ... + ... # Runs Scored .......

"White Men Can't Jump"

I hope that as a Red Sox fan, you really didn't mean that you want to get to him untracked. The Sox could send him down to Pawtuckett for rehab.

That would make a great pick-up line !

My advise would be to definately take public transportation, have a bite to eat before you get there, don't screw around with smuggling items in, and just enjoy the game. The consessions aren't that bad ( over priced yes ) but your'e not there for the "dining experience". So and enjoy the game, get some dogs, sausage, popcorn, soda, ect. You don't get to do it that often. Memories are made of days like this.
