    You also don't take half of anyone's salary away.

    Ben was the only one with last place seasons though...
  3. Bellhorn04
    Agreed. A lot of the folks in the stands at Fenway now are just there because it's an event. But the NESN viewers are a different story.
  4. Bellhorn04
    Well luckily we have an owner who doesn't rest on the laurels, as recent personnel changes have once again confirmed.
  5. Bellhorn04
    I don't hate Lucchino either, not in the least. In fact I think he did mostly good things for the franchise.
  6. Bellhorn04
    For me there's just no comparison. The overriding themes of being a Sox fan were disappointment and heartbreak, until 2004.
  7. Bellhorn04
    It was a bit of a stretch. Let me be clear - I'm actually quite happy that DD is out and Bloom is in. I just think DD takes a little too much flak for what he did.
  8. Bellhorn04
    OCab did a fantastic job. His defense was lights-out in the 2004 postseason. Theo deserves a statue just for making that trade.
  9. Bellhorn04
    He really went downhill fast though. He was no Jeter.
  10. Bellhorn04
    I think the real question is, how much better off are we with JD playing 1B for 10 games vs. playing OF for 10 games.
  11. Bellhorn04
    It doesn't always work that way though. I was looking through attendance numbers last night after I posted that. The 2013 team actually drew less fans than the 2012 team.
  12. Bellhorn04
    I agree. But I think we also have to be prepared for something wishy-washy on the test results, which will mean we have to wait until actual games are played to evaluate him.
  13. Bellhorn04
    I'm not sure people realize how fortunate we have been to win 4 rings in 16 years.
  14. Bellhorn04
    True. We were very fortunate with how everything shook out with Nomar. He was not the same player after 2003.
  15. Bellhorn04
    It's pretty much all gravy for me now. From 1969 to 2003 I saw no titles. Now I've seen 4. Since Henry bought the team it's been a fantastic ride.
  16. Bellhorn04
    The only thing that's off limits on this board is politics.
  17. Bellhorn04
    I don't think the second exam has taken place yet.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Right. Obviously that's no help as far as signing Mookie as a FA.
  19. Bellhorn04
    Re-setting has no bearing on draft pick penalties. Those apply if you exceed the first threshold by more than 40 mill, regardless. That's why we got whacked with a penalty in 2018.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Hasn't happened yet. It was 'expected some time in mid-November'. Maybe they have to drag Chris there kicking and screaming...
  21. Bellhorn04
    God knows.
  22. Bellhorn04
    It's a drop compared to $350 million or thereabouts. It's certainly not enough to impact how much they're willing to bid for Mookie. IMHO.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Not per year. For one year or maybe two. The re-set benefits you for two years at most. If the re-set inspires you to spend like crazy again it may do more harm than good. Also, the current CBA expires after 2021. There are a lot of variables in all this stuff.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, I think we wouldn't really want to know who all was juicing in those days. My guess is plenty.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Flap was being facetious, methinks.
