That's because it's not. How can anyone be surprised he doesn't feel American. Very encouraged by his press conference today. Exciting times ahead.

Incredible isn't it? For what it's worth, while I don't always agree with your posts, you're one of the best posters on the site; always offering analysis and creating discussion. More people like you are needed, not less.

I've been reading this board for several years. Way before I joined up. I find it extraordinary that it is you that accuses others of creating issues. I have rarely found a more divisive, petty, immature and passive aggressive poster on any board, on any sport. Which is quite something given the age bracket you're in. Without fail, every day, the board is treated to the delights of "LOL!!! But they said it doesn't matter/it's random!!" Your snide posts almost number the same as your normal posts. I have no dog in this right as I don't see myself as from this or the other forum. Im just some body who likes to come and read other fans views/news. But you and Fred made this place damn near un-readable a few years ago. And you're still the same now. So for you to now complain about others (a lot of which offer a tonne more than you do in debate and information) is quite something. But you've commented before that you don't need to have your mind changed on things as you know you're right, so this post has little chance of achieving anything either.

Yeah I guess, and would hope! I feel pretty strongly that Chili has a huge say in our struggles this year. He's done absolutely nothing to coach these guys out of their slumps. A fresh start all round is a good thing. The players need it more than anything else.

Everyone talks about Farrell needing to go, nobody mentions Chili. This would be the guy getting the sack for me. Almost all the hitters regressed this year. What exactly was he doing with them? Maybe Pedroia was too injured to work out the kinks in the swings for the guys this year.

How the hell is this still only 2-1?!

Where have I said that one fan should dictate proper behaviour to another? Secondly, if you don't care, don't respond to my comments. Simple.

Haha, I think we all share the same hope. Whether we get it or not, however....

What a nonsense of a reply. Well done.

Nice Bogey!!

Yeah sure. Don't go out there and support the players when they are struggling. Only when they are doing well, huh? What a s*** attitude.

I'm pretty sure he's not trying to throw it there. His control just isn't there.

If the fans are only turning up when they are winning then they're no fans at all. If you can't be bothered to get behind the team in an elimination match in the play offs....

The lack of atmosphere once again is telling and empty seats everywhere. Bad weather or not, this is a pretty s*** effort from the fans.

Drop him to 7/8th, move everyone up one.

Too quick a turn around for Sale, I'd imagine. But then you have Porcello.... Rodriguez available, too. None are ideal.

Get in!!!!!!

We need to keep hitting and hammering them just to set the tone for the rest of the series. Badly need to reverse the invincible feeling/momentum that the Astro's have been feel.

This is beautiful. Crazy hit.

Price and Hanley have been constantly slated on this forum. They've come in huge today. Big day for Moreland too.

Jesus! haha! You just have to laugh.

One of the WORST atmospheres I've ever seen at a Playoff game.

Amazing how he continues to get misses on his high fastball, though. It's not exactly a secret.

Blew his knee out running up first base on his first at bat. He's cooked.

Sale has the strength of character to come back from the bad start/bad control.
