  1. He can't even convince his girlfriend to marry him. Lucky guy!
  2. Yup. And I say we keep Hanigan. Move Swihart to 3rd or 1st.
  3. I'd keep Taz too if I could. He has been the Sox workhorse out of the pen for years.
  4. Yeah I did not like the fit he threw with Farrell but I have heard zero about anything else he may have done to be labeled a cancer. Even Hanley has been silent on that front. I call ******** Doc.
  5. I'm just pissed that I missed an opportunity to hit BP against Roger!!!! Seriously, Verlander is toast. If Porcello can keep from s***ing himself this game is winnable.
  6. I have been saying for many years that there should be a Constitutional Amendment prohibiting business owners from making their own TV commercials.
  7. Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!! What a self promoting puke he is.
  8. Didn't Springer break a bone in a hand? If so, he may not have so much power when he returns this season.
  9. Yup. But the pitching is a much bigger problem to fix.
  10. Other than his hissy fit with Farrell I have no problem with him.
  11. I'm not talking about any particular wage group. Certainly not minimum wage. If anyone goes off to work and does not earn their pay because they don't feel like working hard than that is an indictment of their character and their upbringing. Anyone who hires that person with the knowledge that they are that way should fail. But I was brought up in a time when work was valued. People were less likely to feel entitlement. Come to think of it, I never worked with anyone cut from a cookie cutter, either. If billionaire owners want to pay lazy ass athletes to f*** off instead of working that is their choice and their problem. They are both loosers.
  12. Nah. I just don't feel that it is necessary to repeat myself.
  13. Truthfully, I have the game on TV in the background if I'm not sitting there watching every play. Instant replay is my friend!
  14. I can see your points. Although as someone who has been a manager of people for a very long time, I think that "motivating" employees is largely over blown. They should come to work prepared to do the best that they can do every day. I have no way of knowing if Farrell is a poor motivator. But I do see stupid and sloppy play. Maybe he needs a little more Billy Martin in him.
  15. The defense of both seems to be. But otherwise, no. But why ask that question? Are you assuming that anyone here is advocating replacing either or both with replacement level players? I certainly am not.
  16. This is why I stated earlier that about this time next year many more people would agree with what I had said. I see a mistake now. No sense in waiting to correct it.
  17. Or maybe the people that decided to hire them?
  18. I've said my piece.
  19. Overall Miley has been what we expected him to be.
  20. I second this idea.
  21. I do not know. However the Sox have resources to get anyone that they want. I don't see this team contending for a tittle next season. I say continue to develop the younger players. One thing that I would consider doing is moving Swihart to 3rd or 1st. He should be able to make that transition without much pain since he was an infielder and has the arm and overall athleticism. Plus it would help prevent him from breaking down and may possibly accelerate his offensive development.
