    Wait, his name is Chi Chi? What is he, a f***ing panda? We have the only Panda in professional baseball.

    Lightning/Rangers was a no-win for me, but I am glad NY lost.

    The Gunners won the Cup and Manchester United didn't win the league. I have to say it was a good season.
  4. Northern Star
    There haven't been many people on game threads all season, and now I think a bunch of posters have quit on the team. Not that I can blame them.

    At least he came cheap.
  7. Northern Star
    Because they had realized how much they overpaid him and how much he stunk. Course, leave it to the Red Sox to make him look good.

    It's about time someone tried to clean up FIFA, God knows Blatter won't do it. He could at least save us the self-pitying denial of any wrong when the game has become more corrupt than politics on his watch. His reelection is a disaster.

    I'm an atheist this year.

    I think the point is he's making excuses on the fly ball outs due to the way he's pitched. Just shut up and make adjustments. It's what you're paid to do (and what the hitting coach is paid to help you do).

    I was just reading today how he was a switch-hitter (and a good one) but doesn't seem to be able to fix Panda's problems.

    Except that this is Boston. Ain't nobody got time for that. I am a big believer in developing and not giving up top prospects for older players, but you're likely not gonna develop three real top pitchers all at the same time, so once in a while, you gotta pay out.

    There was a point at which Pelfrey appeared to be done.
  14. Northern Star
    He'd still have to come back and be showcased at the major level, unless the Sox suck up his remaining salary and throw him in on a trade centered on someone else.
  15. Northern Star
    I don't like long contracts to pitchers, I'm dead against it, but if the Red Sox refuse to give out any, they are gonna be left behind. The market is the market.

    I don't care what Ben's plan for the rotation was, you don't destroy a rotation and successfully rebuild it in one off season. Not with the pieces he used.
  17. Northern Star
    You make your own luck. Primarily by making the ball miss the bat.

    I had faith in Kelly but it's gone now. Can he be sent down? Because he's not making any adjustments. He's not figuring it out up here. Putting him in the pen might limit the damage, but I don't want to give up on him as a starter just yet.
  19. Northern Star
    It's the Twins. Every night is scrubs night.
  20. Northern Star
    Great signing.
  21. Northern Star
    In fact, the subjects are killed, cremated, and then the ashes are beaten with a baseball bat.
  22. Northern Star
    I feel like we beat certain subjects to death here, one is the quality of the team. It's pointless for me to rehash my opinion, I'll only get the usual rebuffs and around and around we go. Regardless of the potential, or lack of, the roster as it was put together, we are where we are.
  23. Northern Star
    I'm not saying don't be a fan, you always root for the uniform above all else, but I can't see actively giving money in exchange for a purposely bad product.
  24. Northern Star
    Red Sox are not the model I'm talking about here. The Pirates of a few years back fits better, where they were pocketing revenue sharing and drafting "signable" duds with their top draft picks, on their way to a nice round 20 year losing streak.
  25. Northern Star
    Oh ye of unshakeable faith.
