  1. We’ve already gone over this many times over, and I have said many times how far I would go for Bogey.
  2. My opinion on the farm is well known. Woo Sox uniform, and Red Sox uniform are two different things. What counts in Worcester doesn’t count in Boston. Prospects are on the farm, and players are in Boston, so when Cases puts on that Red Sox uniform then it matters what he does until then doesn’t matter to me, so at this point we don’t know how good Bloom has done. Good for the farm doesn’t mean it will translate to good for the Red Sox. Now who drafted Mookie, Bogey, and Raffy just to name a few did a great job.
  3. I agree we fans don’t know what else we could have gotten for Betts, but the point being we did not get back equal value, and what are the chances we get back any kind of equal value for Bogey, JD, Evol, and Raffy if it comes to that. That’s a lot of value if not replaced close to equal then you end up worse off than you were before. I understand that getting something back is better than just letting them walk out the door, but to me it all shouldn’t have all come to this.
  4. Tampa doesn’t even have many fans to begin with, but agree with the rest, but those are big differences.
  5. That’s the problem that Boston isn’t Tampa.
  6. You mean like lowballing Bogey? So I guess you could add the players to the media, and fans. A.B.B.
  7. I think Bloom is just a puppet anyway. I think he was told to hire Cora back, and to trade Mookie, which he pretty much botched in his returns. Now I’ll give you he doesn’t have a very big allowance from JH, but Bloom has had 3 years to work on all these FA to be, and all he has done is to lowball Bogey, and Raffy, and if a fire sale has to happen, and does happen it has to start with Bloom. No prospects they get back will make up for a Bogey, Raffy, or JD just like Dugy does not replace Mookie.
  8. We finally agree on something that what works in Tampa won’t work in Boston, and Bloom’s not the man for the job anyway. It took you awhile to get it, and welcome to the A.B.B.
  9. I enjoy it myself, and I’m usually on the other end, buts it’s kind of amusing that it doesn’t take much to get them going.
  10. When you come right down to it I don’t think there is any need for name calling, or gutless comments etc just because someone has a different opinion that some others don’t like, but it happens all the time.
  11. I’ll try. Then maybe I’ll be able to tell that JBJ is hitting the ball better now, because that dam old eye test isn’t good enough.
  12. You mean like a cult following? That explains it all. A.B.B.
  13. Gutless, Disdain, and naive, and the hits just keep on coming. Come on man! Is that all you got? A.B.B.
  14. This is the fourth time you’ve mentioned talk show callers that you said you didn’t want to hear about. Amusing that you can’t help yourself, but because I’m so naive I guess that’s understandable. A.B.B.
  15. abb. Anybody but Bloom. What I should have said about DD was I was kind of a fence sitter. He made a couple of good trades for a closer, and a starting pitcher, but then turned around, and made a bad choice to resign Sale. I don’t think he ruined the farm though.
  16. Price I’ll give you, but how come Bloom hasn’t produced anyone to take Bobby D’s place? Budget? Who else on the Buget doesn’t belong there? Farm you’re right Bloom hasn’t produced anyone from the farm. To close I was never a DD supporter, or criticizer either.
  17. Outside of the Sale fiasco what else is DD responsible for that has caused the current situation?
  18. Media, and fan base is a whole different game in itself in Boston compared to Tampa.
  19. Who said anything about not criticizing Bloom at all? I never said that, but as usual over analyzing something. I on the other hand think Bloom is way over his head in Boston. Are you with me? Give me a hell yea!
  20. The P.B.A don’t have a very high membership outside of the few charter members on here. It makes them feel good though.
  21. More than one on here have said Bloom, and Cora got the Red Sox to 2 games of the WS last year, and I’m fine with that logic, so following the same logic Bloom, and Cora have made the mess that the Red Sox are this year. Sounds good to me.
  22. You keep bringing up talk show callers that you don’t want to hear about. Well they’ve talked about this on the Red Sox pregame show, and during the game broadcast by the announcers just like they have about where Whitlock belongs on the staff, so I guess they are all bad people too. Anyone who shares a different opinion than you you don’t want to hear about, but that doesn’t change the fact there are many many out there.
  23. Their slipping. Does John Henry know that?
  24. Playoffs? Did someone say playoffs? You don’t need talk show callers to know this team is a mess from Top to bottom.
