ya and at least he swung at the pitch (which was just nasty)...our other strikeouts where looking which just sucks

I will admit i don't watch too many yank games....but it does seem like there are a ton of curtain calls at the toilet

Here you go again saying I don't understand the game and never played, so let's clear this up. I played, starting when I was young (farm system which was pre-LL) and played until college (LL, HS, ect...) I would have loved to see how far I could go, but didn't get a baseball scholarship and had to pay my way through school working 2 jobs while double majoring. I would have loved to keep playing, but I don't think I was good enough and couldn't be in school if i didn't work. (although it was hard when friends got drafted) I have no problem with someone admiring a HR (we obviously disagree) because if they hit it they deserve it. It's just like when someone makes a great play in a key situation and they celebrate, they can do what they want. If the pitcher feels he got disrespected, fine hit him in the back, butt, legs, ect... and it will work itself out; but don't throw at his head. I'm sure I've gotten pissed in the past when the yanks hit one off the sox and admired it...in the heat of the moment i am pissed, but i have no problem with them doing that. To put this to bed, let's call a spade a spade and admit that the reason Weaver was pissed was not because Papi watched it, it was because he just gave up a grand slam in a key moment of the game that ended up costing his team the win. Getting pissed at Papi was just a way to vent his frustration. Now I understand the game, and as much as you want to add in these phrases that you say i don't understand, the problem I have is with what you said initially: Please explain what you mean here because according to you I don't understand the game enough. This is where we disagree; you think it's ok to throw at someones head, and I don't. I would hope that your intention is to throw at his head so he'll get out of the way without injury...but sending a message. I disagree with this as well, because too much can go wrong when you throw at someones head. Maybe one day you'll mature enough to realize that you can send the message you want without endangering someones life, future, and livelihood. You may think it's ok, i don't...I've seen what happens when something goes wrong (both on TV and in person) and it's not worth it. This is hilarious. In an interview after the game Papi said that's the hardest ball he had ever hit at fenway and he thought he had a chance to 'beat the seat', ie the farthest ball ever at fenway, passing Williams red seat. So to him it was a chance at history....so i guess now it's ok with you since it had a chance to be a milestone

nice pathetic offense today. JT actually pitches well and we continue the offensive slump of the year

can't blame Lugo for that, it was sick.....and he swung at it which is better than the last 2 outs

can we please stop watching strike 3

"Put one in his ear" means hitting him in head, or at least throwing it there hoping he'll get out of the way. At least that's what it meant when i played,,,mabey things that changed...please enlighten me. As much as you would like to spin it, you were calling for papi to get one thrown at his head....and that's pathetic and shows you true character. As much as i dislike jeter, giambi, posada, ect....i never wish then getting hit in head (or thrown at...there's too much that could happen) Nice pathetic attempt at humor....just another examply of how much you actually bring to the board

Wow, a nice job by Gagne

No becuase you bring nothing to the board....nothing i have seen today. I could care less if you rag the signings, what pisses me off is your comment in the other thread.

Thanks dustin, this is the one guy who you can't give an extra out

Gagne got bailed out there by matthews swinging at a couple very high pitches....the changeup was good though

and Gagne continues to throw everything over the heart of the plate

and Gom continues to bring absolutly zero to the board

Exactly why I was asking why friggin drew was up there. I don't mind as much if you swing and miss, but to sit there and take the same pitch that was just called a strike is stupid

Deuce....come on Drew

I just tuned in, but Kelty looks to have had a good day. So why is Drew getting ready to pinch hit for him?

Your pathetic! I don't care how much you hate someone, (and we know you hate the sox...if the roles were reversed and it was vlad you wouldn't go to an angels board and rip them) - nobody deserves one in the head. If you think you were done wrong, fine...plug someone in the ribs. You don't EVER hit someone in the head on purpose. Let's also not forget that it was a monster shot down the line, it was close to going foul. I think if you don't want someone doing that, don't give up the grand slam.....and if you do win the next battle. Yesterday was the 40th anniversary of Tony C......there is no reason to alter/end someones career or life because you think they dishonored you. The fact that you support this shows you have zero class, so go away.

Couldn't catch the game tonight. I can read the boxscore, but how did shill actually look tonight?

I flipped it on yesterday when i got home just in time to see the catch in center. Great camera work by ESPN to show that the ball was def gone and the kid brought it back. I try to watch what i can...i didn't miss a game last year when Portsmouth, NH was the NE rep (my hometown and the team i played for back in the day) Here's hoping they bring it home!:thumbsup:

Just heard on WEEI that shill is doing a pretty cool thing. He is offering a BBQ at his house (at his expense) for 10 people that can come up with 50k to donate to the jimmyfund. If they do he will also match the amount (in addition to his donation already) in addition to hosting the BBQ

What really bugs me about this loss is that the offense (papi and manram in particular) finally come through when it counts, and we could build on this momentum......................then it's Gagne time
