Good series sox

Yes it was awesome.

Too bad it turned out like it always does. I'll be 35 in about a week and I'm now convinced that I'll never see the Bosox win it all.

Bring me the head of Grady Little.

managing blew it for both the sox and the cubbies. Shows how valuable the man on the bench is.
 
If grady little isn't fired by the end of the week then they should burn the whole organization...I didn't think I could ever see a manager do such stupid things...

Hey, Pedro's not TOO TIRED...he's only given up 2 DOUBLES...lets put him up against Matsui while our lefty specialist is ready...good idea!

That was ridiculous managing...he gave it away.
 
7 fucking games of back and forth fighting. im am so tired from these games. they drain all the energy out of ya. GG boston.

was aaron boon considered a superstar? no he wasn't. They get players to compete. Other teams do it to, look at Arizona 2 years ago. They don't even get to the playoffs without their hired guns (johnson and schilling). It's a shitty argument and amounts to little more than stamping your foot and crying.

Bingo. If he goes to the bullpen as soon as Pedro gave up a hit in the 8th I think we'd have won. After they scored the runs off Pedro to tie it, the bullpen went the rest of the 8th, 9th and 10th without giving up a run. I know this is over simplifying it but I can't help but imagine Embree coming in to face Matsui and the bullpen getting those outs with a 2 run lead instead of with a tie game.

The New York Yankees have a payroll of $180 million, the average payroll of a major league team is $80 million. "They didn't buy it" my ass.

That's really great, stop fucking whining now. Other teams try it and other teams don't do it. The yankees have built the revenue to do this, so they can do it consistently. Arizona couldn't keep it up or they would have done the same thing. Same with the marlins and their title.
 
It was a good game and good series. I'm a diehard Sox fan but I'm not gonna hang myself over this. Best team won and it's not any one persons fault. GG's Yankees but I hope the fish beat you.
 
Are you trying to say the Marlins and Diamondbacks are proof that you can buy yourself a world series? Way to make your point, douche nozzle.

This is exactly why a salary cap is needed.

No, i'm saying that you people have a double standard. You say the yankees always do it when others are trying the same thing and sometimes succeeding. Never hear about them though.
