  1. Sign a RHH OF, a starting pitcher, and a couple of relievers. Cuddyer/Beltran, Jackson/Buehrle, several options.
  2. What you did was gloss over the post i made and place a convenient strawman. Please.
  3. Yup, let's watch all of those FA ditch the Sox and take half the money to go to the Pirates because of a lack of manager.
  4. Oh noez, the other click members (clones). Time to run for the hills!
  5. You've been shown, yet disregard it. Look for something better to do, as in, find something else to bitch about.
  6. We all know LL's running the team. What i'm trying to convey here is that BC is a rookie GM who should have little to no pull but held up the hiring for a long time because his input is valued. LL's the big boss, but Cherington's his own man. If this situation was handled incorrectly, that's all on JH's end.
  7. What defies common sense is your unwillingness to understand that you don't know anything about the inside workings of the Red Sox. If you had concrete evidence to the contrary it would be one thing, but it's just keyboard diarrhea from someone who thinks too highly of himself. Get some new material, and tone down the annoying s***. Pour some water on your glass, so it's at least a quarter full.
  8. That's not how it works. It's not a black/white situation, and there was a middle ground they had to find. If he didn't have any pull, they would have hired Valentine right away. Simple as that. He's a rookie GM, not as much leverage as Epstein, but he's not a complete puppet either.
  9. And the truest as well.
  10. Yet according the reports, this took so much time because there was a fracture between who Ben wanted, and ownership wanted. He has enough power to drag on a negotiation like this for such a long time.
  11. Keep waiting. Also: "Look, a manager!" "What will they whine about next?"
  12. The idiot member of the "whine clique" all jumping on another poster who's tired of their annoying s***. Unsurprising.
  13. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Fp5_e5aPqUY/SVkWA1zJUbI/AAAAAAAAG-4/mKu3y1vyEbY/s400/deadhorse2.jpg
  14. This is something the Red Sox should seriously consider.
  15. If The Red Sox had offered much more money he would be a Red Sox today.
  16. Even though Papelbon himself didn't allow them the chance to match the offer? (This came from Papelbon's mouth). Solid logic. Also, Papelbon wasn't the Red Sox' "Ace". He was the team's closer, and one that can be replaced at that. The sky is not falling. Yet.
  17. Well if you go by the guys out in Cali, he's a head-case and his elbow is screwed up. The Sox were one of the teams interested by the way, meaning they probably passed.
  18. Players go where the money is. You can have a class-act organization, manager and pitching coach, but if you don't have the money, you don't get the player.
  19. INSIDE INFORMATION!!!11!!! WRITERS NEED TO STOP STEALING YOUR MATERIAL!!! COPYRIGHT LAWSUIT!!!! By the way, this is a good example of an actual opinion that isn't being passed as fact. Kudos on the improvement.
  20. Oh no, you've never passed opinion as fact. Nooooo.
  21. BUT IT'S ALL A CONSPIRACY!!!11!! I GOT INSIDE INFORMATION FROM SHANK!!!11!! You're the voice of reason on this board.
  22. I'd tell you the same thing. You've done nothing but regurgitate media babble and the thoughts of your clique. What a hypocrite. Read my thoughts above. They are mine and mine alone, no clique or outside help needed.
  23. How do you know they haven't made up their minds and we're merely on a formality stage? That's an instance of "i know what's going on". Remember Tito? They chose him mid-November but announced him early December. Problems communicating from you instead of reading from me perhaps?
