  1. It should not be forgotten that the Yankees played the Mets in the World Series that year. They were a suck ass team. Most Mets fans can't name 5 players from that team and I'll spot them Mike Piazza.
  2. At least Manny was an offensive super power when he was acting like a dick. Even then, he still came close to wearing out his welcome a few times before he left town. Crawford is copping an attitude 1 year into robbing $142 million from the Sox? That doesn't bode well.
  3. Two World Championships in this century. Your team has 1. If you want to live in the last century, go ahead.
  4. The Braves are 4-6 in their last 10 games. To paraphrase Denis Leary, I'd give my left testicle to be 4-6 in our last 10 games. We are 2-13 in our last 15.
  5. They had better target and sign CJ Wilson. The guy is a horse.
  6. I tip my hat to the Yankee organization. If you had told me in March that the Red Sox would be the old injured team that would collapse and not the Yankees, I would have said you were nuts.
  7. We spent a lot more this past offseason than the Yanks and they still beat us.
  8. How close did the 2006 Cards come to blowing a playoff birth?
  9. Really...you think so? What has he been saying?
  10. It's one thing for the DH to be a little chubby, and actually Ortiz has been in better condition the last 2 seasons. Youk is too fat. Jenks is a cow who never got off his couch in the offseason, during spring training or the regular season. Drew is as soft as they come. He just disappeared off the face of the earth. Lackey is trimmed down this season, but his conditioning stinks. As good as AGon is, he needs to drop some weight or he'll be getting nagging injuries in a year or two. Lowrie is a physical wreck, and I am still trying to figure out how you break your back from pitching. Crawford was almost never injured with Tampa, but he pulled a hamstring in his first year here. There definitely is something wrong with the conditioning program. The real problem is that none of the starting pitchers are conditioned to go deep in games-- none of them. A quality start for the Sox needs to get downgraded to 5 innings, 7 runs. It's a joke.
  11. Expectation-wise, this is the bigger collapse. Everyone was assuming a playoff birth from spring training. I am not sure whether the 2007 Mets lost more games in the standings in September than the 2011 Red Sox. That's a close call.
  12. Tito will be gone and Theo will probably get 1 year to right the ship, or maybe they clean house/
  13. But I love my big brothers.
  14. Wow, Hellickson has given up only 2 hits and he is only tied.
  15. This had nothing to do with luck. Lester s*** the bed in his last 2 starts and lost. Papelbon gave it up last night and Beckett gave it up tonight. We lost 4 key games with our best guys. No excuses.
  16. It's the biggest in Red Sox history by far. I've seen nothing close in 45 years.
  17. Nothing is impossible, but in reality, we have nothing to throw at the Yankees this weekend... nothing. It's pathetic.
