They said that before EVERY one of his AB's. and yeah, JD Drew has the strength of Mickey Mantle. stupid TBS. It was funny though! I'm hoping they get to the World Series now...I can't stand Matt Cassel and it's so hard for me to watch football these days Celtics????? | |

This comeback is positive proof of the existence of the Sports Gods...sitting 'round their 1000 inch HD flatscreens up on high in the Coliseum...waiting for mortals to offend them....like a TBS field reporter talking to the Rays GM about a Phillies-Rays World Series....in the 6th inning.... ....and then, the wheels fell off.... kinda makes ya wonder.... He was like a cock who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow.

Fenway is so much fun. It still has character and doesn't feel like those new stadiums do...I can't explain it. I hope they never build a new one! And even if you don't have tickets and you're at a bar near by you'll have a ball! Pun intended! | |

They will play Tampa Bay...whoever wins the series will go to the world series. I have a feeling Tampa Bay will win, I was hoping Chicago would go all the way this year. Tampa is very good but man, they start fights with everyone. Of course I love my Sox and are rooting for them but I think its time for another team to have all the glory. Just my opinion! it's time!! GO RAYS!!! 'why y'all trying to say goodbye? I didn't go anywhere, I'm right here, im all around you,always..'

And if in the event it ever is closed for a new model, the people of Boston will actually throw a party in its honor, unlike the loser Yankee fans. Why is it that all you Sox fans do is worry about one upping us? You even finished AHEAD of the Yankees this year. Worry about your own sucky ass team. BTW, there were plenty parties thrown there. After 160 postseason games, that tends to happen. I went to Fenway park. It was cool, I mean, because it was so old. Not like it has some rich history to be PROUD of. This guy says it all: Fenway Park is a fucking dump. Period. I'm sure it was wonderful in 1912 or whenever it was built, but now it's an awful structure, with uncomfortable and poorly-placed seats, many of which don't even face towards the infield. To make up for how small it is, and therefore how limited the revenue is, the Red Sox add new seats and "luxury boxes" to it each offseason. The new seats are in the most distant part of the park, with the worst view of the game... namely, the "Monster Seats". And yet the Boston fans eat them up like they're wonderful. The luxury boxes are literally trailers that have been secured onto the top of any load-bearing structure that could support them (more are being added as I type). You know, when a redneck builds an addition onto a trailer in a trailer park, and therefore makes it a "permanent" home, we chuckle. When the Red Sox do that at Fenway park, we call them "luxury boxes". It really is as if Red Sox fans are abused wives, who don't understand that they deserve better. And I want to be clear: as much as I'm a Yankees fan, I have tremendous respect for the passion of Red Sox Nation. And I want to say to Red Sox Nation: you deserve a good stadium to see a baseball game in. Hell, as far as I'm concerned, you deserve the second-best stadium in baseball. You certainly don't deserve to have the oldest, most cramped, most dumpy piece-of-shit in the game. Yet, whenever I say to a Red Sox fan that they should build a new stadium, the instant reaction, every time is: "But where would you build it? We can't just put it out in the suburbs... and there's nowhere to build it here." And I always have to ask: "Have you ever walked around the Fenway Park area?" It's nothing but ugly one or two-story warehouses, for blocks around. It would be incredibly simple to purchase as many of those warehouses as required, change the zoning, and build a new stadium right next to the old one, and then tear the old one down. But, again, in Boston, the thought of tearing something down just doesn't even exist in the realm of what's possible. And that's the problem. And Fenway is the ultimate symbol of how Boston thinks of everything. And that's why there's almost no renewal there. And that mentality just permeates everything and everyone. I also had sex in the bathroom on the upper level with my Yankee hat on and spilled my seed on it's floor. Maybe that will help Ted Williams, Carl Yastrzemski, Jim Rice and Dom Dimaggio finally win SOMETHING in whatever alternate universe they're playing in now. | |

I lived in Boston all my life, until I left to marry a Yankee fan. (!!!) We cling to what's old, to the way things have always been. We are slow to tear down the buildings and monuments that have been a part of what we see, live and breathe every day. Our city, unlike New York, which is constantly growing, changing and evolving, is like a part of our anatomy. You don't see a lot of plastic surgery on Boston people, either. If our bodies are getting a little old and saggy, we don't think of ripping parts out and replacing them with new ones. We embrace the strength that comes with enduring the ravages of time. It's one of the things I really love about my city, and one of the things that, if you're not from there, you just won't understand. The Normal Whores Club | |
