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.

Almost none? I guess the new basketball arena & the thruway are imaginary developments?

And no, I don't live in Boston. I live about 30 blocks from Yankee Stadium.

Damn.

That dude threw GAS to Drew, didn't he? Not sure that was really strike 3.

Top of the ninth now.

oh, and a shout out to the idiot who wants to bring up payrolls...triva...which team had the highest payroll to win a World Series??? The 2007 Red Sox. Congratulations, loser, you have seen as many championships as the Twins, Marlins and Blue Jays...except it didn't take them 90 years to win them.

What a sorry bitch you are!

I'd be hurt if I gave a fuck about your opinion.

Justaphase said:

Oh my god. It's just sports...get a grip! Dang...

oh life can be so nice! Wonderful world, paradise!! Good bye and good riddance to Shrek, The Midget, Goatboy and the other losers on the Red Sox!!

Justaphase said:

If you want to think like that my friend...I could easily ask you...where were the Yankees this year? Oh yeah..sucking ass!

MoniGram said:

The Sox only won 6 more games than the Yankees this season.

JerseyKRS said:

But we still did better than them

CarrieLee said:

Fenway is a jewel in Boston's crown. It's not named after a bank, or a razor blade, & it has a history to it that none of these new stadiums will. 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.

There was a big party for Yankee Stadium before the last home game there. It was packed with fans and many former players were there.

It was a shame that they conspicuously neglected to even tip a hat to Joe Torre...that was bad juju.....

reneGade20 said:

I agree that was wrong. Mattingly was acknowledged, but not Torre and they are on the same team now. Part of the ceremony should have been devoted to Yankees managers.

It's interesting that people responded to Justaphase's posts by slamming the Yankees. Nowhere was it stated that this person liked the Yanks or was from New York. For all we know Justaphase could be an angry Angels fan.
