Alright, I don't know what the deal is, but I've gotten a few PM's about this so I'll address it. I haven't had much time to read the game threads this week due to work, I didn't even watch the games today and last night so I'm not 100% sure what is going on.
Regarding game threads, we have "rules" around here that have been around since the site was created, they've been broken a few times, and it happens, they're sort of like unwritten rules. The Game Threads can be started by anyone as long as the Red Sox lost the previous game. If you start a game thread, and the Red Sox win, you make the next game thread until they lose again. If you make a game thread and they lose, anyone else has the chance to make one. If you don't follow these rules it won't result in anything drastic such as a ban like some people have been mentioning, but it would be appreciated if we followed this as it is a tradition and is for fun. The personal attacks regarding some members who don't/didn't follow these rules aren't necessary however, and that needs to end now. We (mostly) all root for the same team and I get this season has been frustrating at times, but lets just all calm down, try to respect the tradition and enjoy the games without attacking other posters.
