  1. since I am at college now and can't see the games can somebody tell me how hard Schilling is throwing tonight?
  2. Is this a serious question?
  3. I think you are right. But I am not comparing playoff failures here, I am compairing pure statistics and saying that if Brady had been with Harison and Wayne, James, and that offensive scheme for a prolonged period I think that Brady's stats would be very comparable. If the Colts had the Patriots D for all of those years they probably would have won multiple superbowls. My last point is that I just would rather have Brady in the last two minutes of the superbowl down 6, and yes this is a bias because I have seen Brady do it so many times and he gets the job done almost everytime (last year against the colts was the only time I haven't seen him get it done) I think everyone deserves to fail at least once don't you?
  4. This is the most rediculus comment I have ever heard.
  5. Seriously I bet stuff like this happens all the time, the Pats unfortuantely have gotten caught twice now. We still would have blown out the jets anyways so it doesn't really bother me what so ever.
  6. I think Manning has more talent. However, Brady also hasn't had Harrison and Wayne to throw to his entire career. I think if you put Brady in the Colts offense the last 4-5 years, Brady puts up similar numbers. We will actually get a taste of what Brady can do this season as he finally has a great wide recieving core to work with. With the weapons that he had yesterday he looked almost unstopable. I know Branch, Givens and Brown made a nice trio, but lets be honest that is no Wayne, Harrison, Stokely. I think that has to be a huge consideration when comparing the two QB's.
  7. As it stands right now, I say the sox playoff rotation should be Beckett, Schilling, Wake, then DiceK. I would actually almost rather have Lester pitch in the fourth slot right now as opposed to Matsuzaka.
  8. So-so start for Dicek tonight. The FB looks marginal at best in the first inning.
  9. This looks like its going to be a dead game thread tonight.
  10. Brady may not have the talent or the stats, but given one game to win I take Brady everytime. If I had to win the most games in the regular season, the choice is always Manning. There is just something about Brady that makes him different and thats why he gets the football in the "if you had one game to win" category.
  11. It was reported last night on Nesn that Manny will miss about 10 days. You are right though, who really knows? This could end up lasting the entire season, which would make this divison race much more of a dogfight IMO. This offense absolutely has to have Manny Ramirez in it, for it to be a good unit.
  12. I predict we are going to make Joba wish he was still in the minors right here. (my predictions are generally wrong).
  13. I need to know what someone eles thinks of this subject, is a fist pump by a pitcher after a strike out any different at all then watching your homerun?
  14. Lugo has been one of our best hitters since mid July.
  15. Tell me how admiring a homerun is any different than when a pitcher does a fist pump after a strikeout. It is absolutely no different. Seriously it was a huge homerun for a struggling hitter. I could care less what Ortiz does when he is going around the bases, I think Jered Weaver should pay more attention to his pitching and less attention to how the other team reacts to certain plays.
  16. The fact of the matter here is this: The Red Sox will always have enough money to buy FA offensive players. Their offense will always have a chance to be great with the resources that we have. On the other hand, Ace pitchers come around much less frequently than great hitters. The Sox made a great move my aquiring a pitcher who is still only 26 years old and could possibly end up winning 20 games multiple times. Pitchers like Beckett are at a premium and the Sox have to still be confidant that they made the right deal.
  17. Beckett not an elite pitcher? Last year was a huge aberation. Seriously have you watched Beckett pitch at all this year? He has four dominant pitches this season. He has the 96-97 FB, the nasty two seam FB and a great curveball and a very improved change-up from last season. He throws all of his pitches for strikes so the hitters can not sit on his heat like last year. Beckett is the AL Cy young this season and it would not suprise me if he win multiple Cy youngs as a Red Sox. Face it Gom, Beckett is better than Halladay now and he may be one of the top three pitchers in baseball. Seriously, Beckett has been way better than Halladay this season.
  18. Do you really think this was Tito's descion? I really think Theo has told Tito that he has to throw Gange out there as the new main set-up guy, which wasn't a bad idea when he first came here. Obviously that has failed and I think they both will agree that Gange should no longer be allowed to pitch in critical situations.
  19. It really is too bad that Douggie had to go down today. He was starting to hit a little bit and Wake was getting into a nice groove. This injury will inevidibly affect his performance on the hill.
