  1. We can all have our opinions regarding what was said and done but when we start assuming that we we really know what happened we are making a mistake. That is meddling. Once again, it should have been dealt with on the plane and ended. It is none of our business. Two grown men perhaps will at some pint sit down and discuss what happened between them. The best thing a fan can do right now is stay out of their business and do what fans are supposed to do.
  2. Actually there were quite a few people here that absolutely believed that this offense was suspect coming into the season.
  3. It is a joke and should be a non-story but with so many people thinking that our hitters are just underperforming so, it has become a scapegoat theory. There must be something wrong with them. That terrible incident on the team plane has to be the reason we just can't hit. It is once again a joke. They aren't that good. I applaud the moves made by DD and his efforts to build up our pitching core and solidify things defensively, but many of us did not have the great faith that by not replacing Ortiz our little hitters would be able score the runs necessary to win at this level. They have to work twice as hard to score.
  4. saw that too - i agree - lack of something for sure
  5. Like your style -
  6. man you r quick on the trigger
  7. man that kid sucks at third doesn't he - where's Marrero when we need him - lol
  8. Meant to say - all of this blat
  9. All of this beat about going over the luxury tax is a bunch of crap.
  10. thanks for agreeing with what I said earlier in the week - give the guy a shot.
  11. I get the biggest kick out of the people here who post that this story represents such an egregious affront to mankind. I like Eck but I don't know him. I don't know Price either. This is between them. They are big boys. If Price is as good a teammate as players say that he is then what about it? We keep Eck and let Price go? I don't like the media in general and they are primarily responsible for this silly story gathering steam.
  12. I just listened to Pedroia's interview. He is a man - he stood up like one - he answered all questions as well as he could. he says he is the leader. he says that Price will talk with Eck when he sees him. He says that Price is one of his most favorite teammates ever. He says that the team is not distracted and that they love each other. he says that they are focused. I am a fan - that is it - I am ok with him and what he said. Actually I am more than ok with it. A non-story - yup- leave it alone. That statement really is meant for the media and not for us. Move on!
  13. Once again, I don't disagree with really anything that you have said here but I'm going to hold the line I'm walking on all the way - This was a story that we did not need to know anything about. It became news because it was not handled properly from the beginning. Management gets a big fat 0 for the way they handled this one. Everyone is in an uproar and no one other than the people on the plane no the real facts of the story.
  14. Why was this not handled from the inside? Why do we have to be privy to this?
  15. So very accurate and with the right person in charge such an easy fix. Sorry Johnny - it ain't you babe. The inmates are officially in charge.
  16. I just have to find a cliff up here to launch myself over. I can't take it anymore. Whatever shall I do? LOL
  17. Can you imagine the s--- storm we would be having if he was fat too!!! That would be great.
  18. I am with you 100% on this. If this is really a factual story then I would think that Farrell will be fired. Almost anyone who has ever coached and been in charge knows how much control they actually have. In the asylum, someone must be in charge. If someone is acting like a fool, they need to be told that - benched or traded if it continues. There really doesn't seem to be much respect being shown for any type of authority here because there really has been no obvious authority figure. I liked how Farrell appeared to give Pomeranz hell a while back - he deserved it. Look what he has done since. One thing I think I know though is that if Price was pitching tonight NESN's ratings would be right where they want them to be for a change. I wonder if Shaugnessey would have been paid a little more by them for what his story has done. (easy - my idea of a joke)
  19. Couple things here for me. Eck is a big boy not some soft little no counter old guy. We all it seems love him. He has a job and he is doing it. I would be absolutely stunned if this old guy (what a joke that is) is bothered much by this one. Oh and I'm pretty sure that Mr. Rice would have his back for him if need be. Neither David Price nor anyone else (yes even our current strong man Hanley) is going to intimidate many people and certainly not Eckersley. Secondly - oh my goodness - David Price might get booed tonight. How awful. I wish that he would shut his mouth but if pitches lights out - oh well maybe another story will come along that can get all blown out of proportion so that more people might have an interest in this group of little guys.
  20. It has gotten to be a ridiculous non event. Everything that I read about it yesterday said that Eck was owed an apology and that he got it. I never got the impression that Kennedy was speaking for Farrell or Price. For himself and upper level management. Reading the latest headlines and just the the headlines seem to indicate that he thinks Farrell and Price should apologize. I don't think that that was what he said. I think that you are right on about someone trying to actually drum up some interest in an otherwise uninteresting team. I don't think that media cares at all whether the report is accurately reported or not. Create some news - that is it. ******** - just play ball. Eck is a big boy - He can handle this just fine.
  21. Just out of curiosity, who those 6 other guys? You've got some info we would all love to have shared.
