  1. Let what go? Thunder had been previously banned from game threads. Yesterday, was bad on an epic level. I don't want that mojo again. Do you?
  2. It seems that I always catch you in a funk. It sounds like an excuse, a rationaliztion. Call the whaaaambulence!
  3. Btw. After yesterday's debacle with our best young pitcher on the mound, U.N. should be sanctioned and banned from making future game threads.
  4. There are 98 games left in the season. There is a long way to go and there is time for 2015 to be salvaged. They need to make some bold moves, and they need to make them fast.
  5. what do you know about running a big league club. This is all part of Ben's strategy. Just kidding. The blame has to sit with him. He built it. Ben was nothing more than a loyal assistant. He is out of his depth in the lead role. Not to be completely critical of him, I have heard that Theo has said that Ben always got the coffee order right. He has to be concerned that he will lose his job if we finish last again. Anyone in his position would be exploring every option to turn this team around and save his job. There is the possibility that he is as Spud said, "a dumbass motherf***er" and he doesn't realize that his job is in peril. There is also the possibility that the FO has lost so much faith in him that they don't want him making any big moves. Without some big moves, this team is dead and Ben should start circulating his resume. I have read that Theo has been having a big problem getting someone who can get the coffee order right.
  6. You have been beating the soft competition. When you face me, you get schooled every time.
  7. I think we could still turn it around. An ace pitcher helps prevent prolonged losing streaks. ER is a nice addition too. Also, Farrell should institute some fielding practice into the pregame routine. That had been the standard for decades. The hitting is starting to produce. The culture and expectation of losing needs to change.
  8. Adam, don't expect me to cry for your team over Altuve. Your offense is stacked. I'll give it my best shot with my pitching, because you will probably crush my hitting. I'd like like to go on a run after slapping down UN for the second time this year.
  9. For the record, imo, it can never be the fault of the fans, especially not Red Sox fans who are the most loyal ardent fans of them all.
  10. Lol! Thank for appreciating my contributions. I meant it to be sarcastic. I should have given the eye roll or something else to indicate the sarcastic intent. But there are some jackholes that actually believe that nonsense.
  11. The entitled fans in a landslide.
  12. I am not going to call you any names. There is a lot of frustration to go around. I think the players are giving full effort. They are just not very good. They are also very poorly coached and managed imo. If I thought that the players weren't trying, I'd be booing them too, but that is not what I am seeing.
  13. I call them as I see them, Pete. I am still skeptical whether he can hit big league pitching, but he has earned the shot and d'Aza is just not good enough to justify blocking his path.
  14. I still love the big guy. He can still hang the rock.
  15. Send him back to Cuba and get him a job in the rejuvenated Tourism Bureau.
  16. I am in a terrible mood watching this, and I probably need a reality check. Does anyone disagree with this ^?
  17. Today. He needs to go today. Why the f*** did he send the kid back out there down 6-1 when the team was playing like a heartless bag of crap and he just had a tough inning.
  18. Before the last play, I was going to post that we look like a little league team. The announcers said that ER had his first bad game. I call BS on them. ER did not deserve today s stat line. He had no team behind him. Period end of story. The team owes the kid big time. They played like total s*** behind him. I am f***ing furious right now. Going to watch another game to see real baseball!
  19. D'Aza was a waste of an acquisition. The guy is a dog. There is absolutely no good reason why Bradley does not have his spot. He is a better fielder by far. He is also a lefty batter with little power like d'aza. Why the f*** do we have d'aza!? Let's see what Bradley can do. Give him another shot. He has earned it. Even if he shits all over himself, d'aza is not that much better.
  20. It took a collision, a spiking and an impaling on the monster rivets for Sandoval to get a triple.
  21. Ben, one dumb ass mutherf***er! Lol! Love it.
  22. That being said, if we get swept by two division rivals in a row, Farrell has to get fired. He wimped like a wuss on the no call at second base. Remy and the rest of us thought he was going to get himself tossed, but he put his tail between his legs and slinked back to the dugout.
  23. Also, the more I see Swihart behind the plate the more I like him. He is not flashy, but very fundamentally sound, quick feet and a good accurate arm. There are bright spots.
  24. Still have to love what we are seeing from this kid. This is a very tough lineup that is red hot right now. He got a tough break on the no call at second base and d'Aza should have had the pop up by Martin. He was positioned wrong and he didn't come hard for that ball. If he slides, he gets that ball. The kid should have been in the dugout with only 2 runs.
