  1. I meant INS... I think-- Immigratiuon and Naturalization Service?
  2. Crap! That's the one game I'll miss while I am down there. I'll be picking up my kids from the airport for the evening game. I really wanted to see his debut.
  3. He's a condescending prick. I see him turning ever more bitter each year. He's starting to remind me of Dick Young the NY writer that got so embittered that he personalized his battles against NY sports figures. He helped run Tom Seaver out of town. That is his legacy. Maybe Daring Dave will succeed in running Manny out of town and we can watch him break Bonds all-time HR record while playing for the Yankees. We'll never be able to run Shaunnessy out of town, because he is a hack writer that could never get a better job than the one he has. Why can't he enjoy the fact that he makes a pretty good living watching and writing about baseball. He's as bad as the rich ungrateful athletes that he writes about. At least the athletes have talent.
  4. It's more likely that you beat something else with your right hand.
  5. I don't need a reason to hate Yankees. The pinstripes are enough. I'm just stating a fact about Gehrig. He was a star professional ballplayer that lived with his mommy into his 30's. That makes him a momma's boy in my book.
  6. I'm at the point where as much as I would like Clemens arm in the rotation I think his return to Boston would be like a circus sideshow. I wouldn't shed a tear if he remains retired.
  7. http://redsox.bostonherald.com/redSox/view.bg?articleid=183604 This has to help. He needs to be fit. A short, fat second baseman with no pop and limitet skills was not going to cut it. Carrying less weight should help him with his range and speed.
  8. Wakefield has performed well in long relief in the past. He would definitely help the pen.
  9. He was a momma's boy that caught a real bad break.
  10. You can't trust a word that comes out of his mouth.
  11. I like dead Yankees, so Joe D. (although he was a scumbag while he was alive), Mantle (a nasty drunk) and Gehrig (a pathetic Mama's Boy) are all okay wih me. I must confess that the Scooter made me laugh and Berra was a star who was totally devoid of arrogance and ego, so I always liked him. He went way up in my estimation by refusing to set foot in Yankee Stadium until the Boss apologized.
  12. Whatever he had left he left on the field in'04. He was never the same afterward. Thanks Keith. You were outstanding that year and especially in the post-season. You were the glue of that post-season staff.
  13. Jacksonian, you have a strange obsession with Beckett.:dunno:
  14. Good for them. For many years the KC Royals had that honor... didn't they? That's select company.
  15. I guess this is good news if we are going to face a team of Kangaroos.
  16. Good riddance.
  17. I'll keep Beckett. He's a young stud that has already had a significant amount of success in the majors. His rough spots will turn out to be learning experiences that will only make him better. Young pitchers don't usually succeed unscathed in the majors. I would expect that Wang will experience some rough spots as the league adjusts to him. Adjustments by the hitters are inevitable. The guys with staying power can make additional adjustments to stay ahead of the hitters.
  18. The truck leaves for Ft. Myers today. I leave 2 weeks from Wednesday. http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/extras/extra_bases/
  19. Hinske isn't an average OF. He's not an OF. The fact that Hinske will make the 25 man roster reflects how weak the the bench is. This guy was tossed in the garbage by Toronto.(Edit)
