  1. i'm hard pressed to root for anything ny especially the s*** bag queens faggots who come out of their homes every 15 years to tell us how theyve been mets fans since 69. f*** em that being said theyre not the yankees so its not so hard to take
  2. good point jsing although theres not a huge market for this guy he will probably get at least a 2yr offer somewhere i say if the price is right we should get involved
  3. that would be the balls Annie sanchez and hanley as co mvps?? their 15,000,000.00 payroll equels 60% of arods salary their fans dont deserve it locked in a pennant race and going head to head against the team in front of them the had seats open behind home plate last nite really sad because that team has really been special this season they should allow loria to leave miami,perhaps merge with tampa bay and then you may have a team
  4. honestly i have no problem with pedroia however from a competetive standpoint at this hour he cant hold loretta's jock so why should we dump loretta and expose this kid to the fire which is the disgruntled redsox fan base? im not sure what lorettas salary is or what the normal salary for a 34 yr old 2b makes but as far as im concerned he should be resigned thru 07 and let pedroia work his way into the starters gig in 08....as it stands now hes completely lost
  5. well david eckstein is a very nice ballplayer with a hard nosed approach and an old school work ethic as far as pedroia ascending to ecksteins level?? he'll need a couple hundred points on his avg to hit .289 ecksteins slugging a mean .328 and does in fact have a homerun AND a triple and 21rbi and we want pedroia to live up to this guys #s??...if all works out well great why would we consider dumping loretta when its painfully evident this kid is overmatched this year?? loretta is what he is an allstar 2nd basemen who can turn the double play and has a pretty good bat with no power
  6. the media went along with the CLA MERIDETH CANT HANDLE IT ride as if they were partners with the sox wait a minute doesnt the ny times own part of the sox? doesnt the ny times own the boston globe?? hmmmmmmn any wonder why these guys have gotten a free ride despite the incompetence of the front office this year??
  7. sure he doesnt im sure the baseball decisions are made by john henry,,weasel werner and the 17 other bloodless sycophants who make up the board of redsox nation. i think henry brought theo back by popular demand but lets face it larry has been with henry et al since day 1 hes the baseball man in the 3 piece suit that makes the day to day decisions regarding payroll free agents and potential trades... im not sure about the draftees im sure the 3 general managers have their fingers in the prospect end of the business theo?? after he came crawling back he's now reduced to the fredo corleone of the sox family destiny has him fishing with al neri some time next summer i fear
  8. larry needs a scapegoat larry isnt going anywhere if larry has another 125M season end on august 10th then theo will be on the cross next summer imo if you want a patient fan base that doesnt hold their gms accountable take the pirates job
  9. agreed riverside anyone worth anything had becks on their radar cla meredith is having a seanez circa 05 type season in san diego ya gotta give the kid credit as the boston media and associated ballwashers had written him off as a head case who was ruined by tito that being said i wonder how he wouldve done here
  10. i believe thats our point as well mosox
  11. us and the other fans who actually enjoy watching major league baseball as opposed to the pawsox pitchers that we've had to endure during this miserable season a few years? another season of kason gabbards and lenny dinardos and the masses will torch his mamas house in brookline
  12. and this is the problem with prospects 90% of them are at maximum value before they even see a MLB field ask yourself is lester worth more today than last year at this time? what about pedroia?? hansen?? all have played 2 have contributed,1 went 7-2 with a decent era in the heart of a pennant race all have lost market value in my opinion of course lesters thing is a tragedy and its freaky but is it any more freaky than taking a soft liner off the elbow that ends your career?? or burning your hand on a candle or falling on a glass and ripping your tendons in your hand or pulling the car over on the southeast expressway and never talking again?? all the above happened to sox prospects over the years so i tend to look at prospects with sceptical eyes because ive seen em come and ive seen em go and most dont do what theyre capable of doing for whatever reasons ask me again if i'd do the becks deal knowing the #s that sanchez and ramirez are throwing up there and i'd still do it in a heartbeat im of the opinion that becks is a future cy winner or at least an all star 1 off season with veritek in his face and i think he'll be fine
  13. i almost died in the carrier dome during the sweet 16 hoop tourney there it was 10 below 0 i was sick as a dog and drunk on brandy and i climbed that god forsaken hill by the time i got to the building i was completley out of breath then i had to climb up to the cheap seats.....i was looking for a paramedic 1/2 way up the stairs barbaric and for the record syracuse ny has the worst weather in the nation outside buffalo
  14. i dont really blame theo for being a puppet its larry playing george steinbrenner that f***ed things up lets not give theo too much credit or blame hes a figure head and a puppet on a string for the most part larry liked beckett because he embarassed ny larry wouldnt know anibel sanchez from anibelle morales of bennington street hanley was known to be the best product they had they delayed bringing him up from what i understand because they worried about his maturity and what the consequences wouldve been if he was to hang around manny all in all you cant fault the front office for going after becks however just once i'd like to see the f/office make a good decision on what prospects we keep and which ones are untouchable because the ones we've moved have played very very well and the ones we kept?? lets just say the books still open
  15. if ive said it once ive said it 500xs but in case you werent paying attention ""im not naive to what arroyo is and i am of the mindset that he'll improve as well hes 28-29?? hes got a rubber arm hes fearless hes won in nyc and hes cheap"" i saw arroyo and the sox beat ny and kevin brown twice in the same week in may 04 i dont think arroyo won either decision but he gave up 2earned in 7ip? in the bronx i dont remember his line from the weeknight game in fenway but they won that too it was him that got arod out in the playoff game with arods patented slap it was him that drilled arod that july that got arod bitch slapped by tek and the sox motivated once again keep in mind that every 5th day which over the course of a season is 40 games,we used the likes of gabbard snyder dinardo johnson pauley and the other assorted waiver wire s*** bags...i dare not ask what our record was also keep in mind what a brutal strain that your bulloen takes when every 5 days you need 6 pitchers to complete 9 innings sure the injuries may have stalled us anyways,what happened this summer was almost amusing it was so bad however if we did have a 5th like arroyo?? how many more games do you think we wouldve won rather than surrendering 20% of them and taxing our bullpen like we did?? 230innings of 4.5era wouldve panned out a lot better than the 5th man by commitee that the front office sold many of you on for the sake of wily pena and cheap too my man..1.7M per?? around there?? 2 arroyos make a seanez real cheap he loved it here and the boned him in the ass and sent him to the queen city the next time a player is about to do a hometown discount for the sox his agent will point to arroyo and say DONT YOU DARE remember arroyo.
  16. and with a 4.50 era where does this put him in the rotation?? thats better than becks and better than the latest additions of jarvis??(gotta be s***ing me)snyder dinardo the cut jj johnson and kason gabbard.....maybe gabbards era is lower after the other nite but you see my point hes on pace for 230 ip and an era of 3 in the nl central.. 16 ip 2 earned this month he tossed a 3 hit complete game gem the other nite i loved the guy and i reiterate its the #1 reason we're out of the race with a 120,000,000.00 payroll before the patriots even kick off
  17. not 30 seconds ago i got off the phone with a coworker from syracuse he actually lives in clifton park but hes a huge orange fan theyre not optimistic for a good season
  18. I AIN'T AFRAID NO MORE AFTER A WHILE YOUR YOUR CHEAP TALK DON'T EVERN CAUSE ME PAIN SO LET YOUR BULLETS FLY LIKE RAIN If you can guess what song this is from, you have my eternal respect im not sure its either carol king or janice""17"" ian
  19. and what was sparky lyle when he was traded to ny?? he was a middle guy back when middle guys were considered expendable. arroyo would be our #2 right now with becks struggling and the rest of the horseman of the apocolypse pitching like s***. see arroyo eats up innings so you dont have to use our 3-4-5 starters the same nite as we did last evening. im not naive to what arroyo is and i am of the mindset that he'll improve as well hes 28-29?? hes got a rubber arm hes fearless hes won in nyc and hes cheap considering the scatine that we've had out there since april i think the arroyo deal is the single biggest reason we'll be watching ny in the playoffs this year and perhaps next year as well this of course is all depending on how well the sure things like paps lester hansen and babe pedroia play out youre optimistic?? im positive but not optimistic about our shot next year either funny how things get exposed over a 6 month season
  20. it maybe our worst trade since sparky lyle went to the yankees for danny cater maybe the cecil cooper for george scott or the larry andersen for bags deal 7starters?? let this be a lesson theres no such thing as too much pitching
  21. i think atlantas running #s have a lot to do with a qb who runs for more yards than he passes for but theres no denying denvers offensive line play over the last 10 years
  22. for whatever reason the man has yet to play in a full season despite playing for the perrenial losers in cinci over the years....has his health been an issue or does he do the manny and play whenever he feels like it?? in any case he should be on the field for the rest of the season if hes healthy if hes not healthy then shelve his ass and get him ready for the spring nixons gone he better be i have no idea why tito insists on using him as hes on the slow boat back to dixie next month...im not sure where he ends up...any thoughts as to who wants a .300 hitter with no speed power and constantly banged up? a guy i know roomed with him in trenton and said nixon was the tuffest man in the organization,now he goes on the dl every other time he swings and misses i smell roids here anyways im not a fan of pena but i want to be...christ i need to be i think hes too aggressive and easily k'd as evidenced by his k #S he needs to develop patience and this is possible at age 24 but not likely and if hes in right field? im under the impression we may have 3 new starters out there next spring
  23. becks era last year in miami was 3.38 with 166ks over 176 ip hitters went .246 against him these are the only things that you can translate comparing becks in the al east to sanchez in the nl east isnt proper
  24. you remember wily mo?? the man who was to replace manny with 55 hrs and 160rbi while hitting 390 any wonder why the kid hasnt had 400abs yet?
  25. strange summer indeed man im not 1 for curses either speaking of curses wheres wily mo been??
