And you an English teacher. I guess I thought you were more intelligent than you are.

Just telling it like it is. Truth hurts doesn't it.

58,000 posts since April 2016. You really do not have a life outside this board. No one wonder you get so worked up over the trivial. do you nerves a favor if I am so tiresome just put me on ignore. But you can"t because this board is your life, pathetic.

I can see how I would appear pompous to the simple minded and uninformed

You are entitled to your uniformed opinion as always.

There are many here who believe the ultimate goal for a major league team is have the best farm system. To hell with world titles.

If Henry does not authorize the money to keep Bogey and/or Devers then it will be a long time before Boston is competitive again.
-
It certainly is for the Red Sox

Shh! No one is supposed to know Bloom's plan is top secret.
-
Blooms plan is so secret he won't even tell himself.
-
Lou Merloni spoke to Bloom about his plan. Merloni said that after that conversation it wasn't clear whether Bloom was planning for Boston to be a serious contender in 23, 24 25 or whenever. Unless some one here has actually spoken to Bloom as has Merloni then I go with the latter's characterization of Bloom's plan or lack thereof.
-
I said I was agnostic about Bloom. But his deconstruction of the 21 team has proven disastrous. I think he has lost the confidence of the team. For me the question is does John Henry care?
-
I know you like to pick fights. If what I post irks you then just ignore me.
-
But perhaps not in Baltimore.
-
Why you insist on making an issue of something so trivial is beyond me.

I am not going to respond to every little inane non sequitur you post.

We were talking about other choices Boston sports fans have to spend their entertainment dollar. (Try and keep up.) In case you have not noticed ML soccer is drawing huge numbers in MLB cities such as Atlanta and Seattle. Their New England Revs team are drawing about 21 k fans per game to the Red Sox 32k per game. It should not be lost on anyone that the reason MLB is trying to speed up the game and make other changes to increase action is among other things because of the threat MLS poses in their competition of the publics entertainment dollar.

What has that got to do with the price tea in China

You all fail to recognize that there is now ML soccer. Look at what their teams are drawing in Atlanta and Seattle.

I remind you the Sox were winning. I remember a time when the Orioles packed Camden Yards. After years of Angelos neglecting to acquire quality players and Orioles attendance collapsed. If you think the same thing can not happen in Boston you are kidding yourself. I remember days when the Sox regularly drew less then 10000. It could happen again.
-
The Sox competed with the Pats because they were winning. I remember a time when the Pats could not draw flies. But once they started to win the world turned just like it did for the Red Sox after they started to win.
-
You said before. Take a look at the MLS attendance. There are several teams that regularly draw 40000. The Revs currently draw about 21000 per game . MLS attendance is up league wide. My grand sons attend MLS games regularly, not baseball.. I would not underestimate how quickly the Sox can fall out of favor especially if Henry does not field an entertaining team.

Devers made it clear he was not happy with the Vaz trade.
