  1. Better than my post about giving Pandas a bad name? I take umbrage.
  2. There will be none of your good natures mockery. It will not be tolerated. LOL!
  3. Every team in both leagues were wearing the same uniforms. I was switching back and forth from game to game and I had no idea what team was at bat or in the field.
  4. I can see them wearing this stuff during Battong Practice and Spring Training (like the St. Patrick's Day green) and still being able to market it. Just keep it out of the regular season games.
  5. i had to turn off the sound and put on the radio and sync it with the Directv feed.
  6. They are driving up the price.
  7. Also, he has given the Pandas a bad name.
  8. Besides his performance, he was criticized for his lack of preparation which was valid and obvious from his complete neglect of his conditioning. All of the criticism was and is valid and not at all beyond the pale. I had not attacked his character until he quit on the team and left with his $50 million. That demonstrates to me a complete lack of trying to honor his contract and yes, a lack of character.
  9. i did that last night and kept having to adjust the TV using tha pause button to sun them up. It is very hard to get them synced up exactly.
  10. Maybe they want their bullpen to really stink.
  11. I hate looking at anything other than the traditional uniforms, but I can live with the occasional throwback uniforms of the 1970's. As a kid, when I went to the games, it was a big deal to see the professionals in their traditional uniforms. All of my memories of the great moments involve our Sox playing in the traditional or 1970s uniforms and the opposition in their traditional uniforms. I don't like the Memorial Day, 4th of July, camouflage, Mothers Day Pink and Father's Day blue uniforms. It is like watching a softball game with those uniforms. I think that if I was a kid and it was my first game at Fenway Park that it would be a disappointment to see the team in one of those uniforms. David Ortiz in pink hitting a walk off home run just doesn't look right in a highlight reel. If Chris Sale pitches a no-hitter, posters of the last out will not look right if he is wearing one of those red, white and blue uniforms with Stars and Stripes. I think it dilutes the brand and it does nothing for the enjoyment of the fans. Isn't the whole endeavor about the fans' experience. It is just another example of baseball executives making misguided business decisions. Frankly, some of these uniforms look ridiculous.
  12. Price has not been the target of much criticism by the Press or the fans. He has not been booed at Fenway. Most people were just fine with 18 wins 200+ strikeouts and 200+ innings. That is a good solid season. Most of the negativity around Price has been initiated by him. Big contracts are no longer shocking and most fans don't care. I also don't think that the racism issue in Boston is really an issue for the professional athletes in Boston.
  13. I have broken my big toes a couple of times. It doesn't take that long for the swelling and discomfort to subside. By the 2 week mark, he should have been free of swelling and discomfort. He's just not a very good player.
  14. Price is an Ace stopper and he pitched like it tonight.
  15. I don't think that I have ever seen a catch like that in that part of the park because the wall starts to get pretty high there.
  16. Wow!!! That was some kind of catch by Bradley!!! I was sure that was out and was cursing Farrell right before the catch.
  17. Ellsbury has hit Price fairly well over his career. .. I think.
  18. It looks like Price might be gassed. It might be time to get him out of there.
  19. And because he has been overly sensitive to any and all criticism and has acted like a jackass on several occasions.
  20. In this respect, Judge has become the new Jeter. There were so many games that National Broadcasters paid homage to Jeter for the entire game.
  21. Young is having a terrible year against LHP. If he can't hit lefties, he is worthless to us.
  22. We need some HR pop even if it comes with a low batting average. Fraziers OBP is .330. That is good enough.
  23. No, We have no one who opposing pitchers fear.
  24. Our lineup against LHP isn't good.
