  1. I feel like this thread is teetering on the brink of a cliff. Who wants a game thread?
  2. Wasn't meant to offend, or to put myself on a higher ground than others. I just remember a teacher telling me this once somewhere along the road, and thought I would share. More of a fun fact than anything else. No harm intended. But, just because you don't correct other people's grammar doesn't mean that I, or anybody else, shouldn't either.
  3. "Very seldom" is improper grammar. The use of "very" in that situation is superfluous. Just saying seldom would suffice
  4. My fault. I'm sorry
  5. I am both. And I don't owe you or anybody else an explanation of how how that can work. People at work have been bothering me for weeks about it
  6. I didn't say other teams, players, or coaches were on a moral high ground, I simply said that the morality of the Patriots organization has been called into question on multiple occasions over the last two decades. If it is a widespread problem across the league, to which I agree with your statement that it is, that doesn't make it okay. I'm a Patriots fan, so don't get any false ideas about where my allegiances lie. I just simply pointed out how the Patriots are a prime example of how people like to accuse foul play and cheating when a team has sustained success. We were doing that earlier in the thread when somebody mentioned how the Astros have made 5 straight ALCS appearances, so they must be cheating again. I guess I just poked the bear a little bit too much for those of you who can't stand anybody saying anything bad about your team, but then go out every single night in the game threads and calling for every Red Sox pitcher to be sent to the gallows when he walks one batter, or gives up 1 run.
  7. That's your opinion, not fact. I should also throw in trespassing onto the roof of the Bengals' stadium that one day to get game film. All I'm saying is they haven't had the best moral compass under Belichick. Have they done anything outright illegal? No. Have they gamed the system? More than anybody else, you could argue. I bet Gruden wishes that was all he did
  8. People said that about the Patriots. They weren't entirely wrong, but that's a story for another day.
  9. If we can beat them when they're cheating, I like our odds now.
  10. Again, I don't disagree with that policy. Just reporting the rule
  11. They got one on Sunday. I don't disagree with the point you're making, but unless one series is on the west coast (i.e. the NLDS), the series that gets more primetime games will be the one that they deem to be "better TV"
  12. But neither AL series was originally scheduled to play today. Today was supposed to be an NL only day, with Brewers-Braves at 5, and Giants-Dodgers at 9. That's why this game is being played early. If it were to go to a game 5, I'm sure it would be in primetime
  13. "Us" didn't include you.
  14. You're not wrong and I don't disagree, but can't you just shut up and let us enjoy this ride?
  15. Game 3 is perfect. I want him starting a home game
  16. Yeah when you mentioned that the other day it started feeling like 2013 to me. Not nearly as good as the 2018 team, but the path to a potential title would be similar. 100 win AL East team in the ALDS, and the Astros (presumably) in the ALCS
  17. Do we give Pivetta a start? I think he's earned it but if Cora wants to keep him as the long guy in the pen I totally get it as well
  18. I'm going to keep making game threads forever! Last night was quite the rollercoaster but worth it! I've felt something special about this team since the day we came back against Domingo German in July
  19. I've been doing that most of the season. I can guarantee you that you will enjoy yourself tonight
  20. My birthday is on Saturday. We are not losing until I'm 23. Book it
  21. Nothing better than driving home from work and seeing 20+ people in Red Sox gear walking to the T station. The city is alive
  22. TBD is only effective if Who is at first.
  23. McHugh is starting for Tampa. I like it
  24. Sale or Houck. Would be tough to find someone to start Game 5 in that case
  25. RHP Collin McHugh vs LHP Eduardo Rodriguez Please do not let this go back to Tampa. Finish them tonight.
