  1. My first remembrance was Gowdy, Ned Martin, and Art Gleeson. A little later Mel Parnell came in, and Johnny Pesky for awhile. Ned Martin broke in the Rem Dog who was terrible in the beginning.
  2. Ned Martin was pretty good also.
  3. Abraham said Both DD, and GM Fuld had smiles on their faces when the selection was made.
  4. Always on here!
  5. Heck no! I’m in the minority more times than not especially on here, but not out in the real world like the gym. I don’t think it has anymore meaning at the gym, or the bowling alley than it does on here. Get out more often you might like it, but then again probably not.
  6. Yes a good story it is, and I’m excited to see how it turns out.
  7. Not always, so it’s a case by case basis, but for this case I think it’s correct.
  8. I just think it’s will be interesting how this will all turn out, and who will benefit if it turns out to be a success story.
  9. I’ve heard a lot more fans go with that story than your repeated version. I wonder why that is? Must be a better subscription, and circulation.
  10. A story that lots have run with though.
  11. It has everything to do with your question. Just, because Song hasn’t pitched in three years doesn’t mean he doesn’t know how, or can’t now. Like others have said this is in the vast unknown category, and I’m anxious to see how it turns out. Suspect to prospect to Big leaguer, or suspect to reject.
  12. Bottom line is Bloom hasn’t done a good job, and the WL bears that out, and has made many blunders along the way tough job, or not. Like I have said many times the only way to silence the critics is for the Red Sox to get better in the WL column, and into the postseason. Anything less is a failure tough job, or not.
  13. Did Song forget how to pitch, or something?
  14. You write the story to fit your narrative, but just not everyone shares your narrative, which isn’t surprising at all.
  15. I don’t think the Red Sox got screwed in anyway here. They knew when they drafted Song it could be a long process to get Song on the mound in a Red Sox uniform. The rules are the rules. Now if you want to change the rules for military personnel going forward that’s fine. The Red Sox just didn’t want to take the process to the end to see if they had anything good, or not.
  16. Larry made him leave.
  17. No! All we really need is a competent one.
  18. M&M are not Don, and Jerry, but definitely better than OB, and the parade of ex Red Sox players who just yuck it up. To me not a good one in the bunch.
  19. Bloom was handed a winning team 4 years running, and a WS win a year before. DD wasn’t fired, because he was bad at his job, but because of a falling out with JH. Bloom will be fired, because he was bad at his job. The impossible situation Bloom was handed is just a theory of yours that you have spewed since Bloom was hired.
  20. Henry was more fun back in his sports talk radio appearance days.
  21. It’s obvious to most, but not on here that Bloom is not as good as you think he is, but of course your red glasses are tinted more by being a groupie.
  22. I wouldn’t have added any player in 67, but I would have taken one away with a guy named Gibson.
  23. I think this sums things up pretty well, but only to add that Bloom doesn’t help out with good PR either.
  24. Guilty as charged, but then again I’m not all that interested in the backend of the 40 man.
  25. So the trade deadline, and staying over the tax line was Henry’s plan? I just don’t think that Bloom is nowhere near as good, or baseball smart as lots do on here. There is more to it than just reading computer printouts.
