EXACTLY. I love Joe. But jesus, I do NOT agree with a lot of his managerial decisions. Why did he change the lineup for games 1 and 2?

and JESUS CHRIST, why does he wait so long to change his pitchers when they're getting SHELLED?!?

Joe took Derek Lowe out last night too early and then ran out of lefties.

Francona made a lot of bad moves in game two for the Bosox which he admitted.

damn, I can't type today

said he was "struggling with his emotions"

I'd be pissed if my manager said that about me.

Ahhhhh Derek Lowe. I remember him losing lots of games for us.

I just got home from school. Are we still getting creamed? And I didn't mean that in a good way.

Not being a Yankee fan, that little factoid escaped my notice...now I understand!!

If I was the Ray's manager, I'd show the team highlights of the '04 ALCS when the Sox were down 3-0 in the series, had gotten creamed (in a bad way... ) 19-8 in game 3, and were down a run in the bottom of the ninth in game 4...and completed the comeback of the ages....

....and this bit of history from someone who could NEVER be mistaken for a Sox fan....the Rays really need to finish this thing on Friday....

I think they'll finish it up on Thursday. They look like a team that is cruising. You can see the confidence the whole team has. Good for Tampa.

Oh shuddup!

JerseyKRS said:

Dice-K was almost unhittable in game 1. But then again, I thought Lester was unhittable in the LCS and look what happened to him. I definitely want the Rays to seal the deal tomorrow 'cos once you give the Sox an opening, they can run away with it as they have proven many times.

BJ Upton and Evan Longoria are KILLING Boston pitching!!!

It would appear that history is NOT going to be repeated tonight!! The Rays are parking Dice-K's shit all over Bahstin!! JEEBUS!!



Roh oh Raggy....them bastids done came back!!! WTF?????

I know how you feel....my Dodgers went out like prison bitches!! And after I plunked down $80 for a Manny jersey the night they got eliminated...

reneGade20 said:

Just like me...but it was a Damon jersey. Damn Johnny!!!

Holy Crap! The Red Sox came back from seven runs down in the seventh inning to win 8-7 in the bottom of the ninth. I bet CarrieLee is wetting her pants in ecstasy right now.

WOW!

Delaying the inevitable.....nice comeback win though.

GO BOSTON!!!!!

OMG!!!!!


I had shut that TV down.

fuckin' Red Sox! they are the come back team! woo hoo!

JerseyKRS said:

It's funny Jersey! I was watching the game after school saying "Oh God Jersey must be happy, 7-0 Tampa Gay....then holy crap! Just like the series against the Spankees and Indians we come back!

There are still 2 games left so I'll wait to boast then if we win...

CarrieLee said:

We went to bed right before the comeback, I woke up at 1 am this morning, couldn't sleep. Turned on the laptop and said "WTF?!!"



Oh cmon, I even gave you respect for the big comeback win!! This isn't the same team as the last two that won it all though, they aren't going to win the next two.

If they do, I'll eat my words.

Shit, it won't be the first time.

My UNBIASED assessment? The Rays bullpen has been lights out, they finally had an off night. It happens. And they left that shit right fielder in, they should have replaced him with someone faster. Longoria (who is going to be gold glove material soon) made a throwing error. Tough breaks. Scoreboard.

I just wanted to see the Fenway faithful look broken.

They did look broken for a while....but it was a great comeback. These are the kinds of games that I love to watch.

I must say, however, Boston is a bunch of ugly mofos...blecccchhh!! No wonder why so many women are single.

CarrieLee said:

Think of all the yahoo's that left the park early, you KNOW they're telling everyone that they were there "for the whole game brah!!"

JerseyKRS said:

I guess the first 3 innings were awful...thankfully I was in school and didn't have to watch.

JerseyKRS said:

This is why I didn't want to post last night until the game was OVER. I went to see a movie last night, came home and turned on the TV in the 7th. I saw the score 7-0 and started to do a little dance, but then of course Boston proceeded to score 8 unanswered runs! I think I reverse jinxed them.

The Red Sox suck.

I think it was hilarious how the announcers pretty much jinxed the Rays. Before Ortiz got into the batter's box they're like "He hasnt had a home run in 61 post-season plate appearances..." Then BOOM it hits one. Then Drew steps in and they're like "This is a good chance for him to show that Mickey Mantle strength!" And then he drives one

MajesticOne89 said:

They said that before EVERY one of his AB's.

and yeah, JD Drew has the strength of Mickey Mantle.

stupid TBS.
