Go Sox!!

oh no i understand the game...plus "publicity" has nothing to do with anything EVER.Just look at something like American Idol it had lots of publicity and it really sucked.

Greatest.Series.Ever
If the Sox win tonight, it will be the Greatest.Comeback.Ever

Not if they go down in 4 or 5 to the NL champ. And no matter who wins (in either series), that's likely.

Game 7 comming up. What a series this has turned out to be. Kurt pitches with a bad ankle and a lot of guts.

I think "bad ankle" understates what "a lot of guts" he had.

If I correctly understood what I read this morning, they gave up on the masterwork Reebok and instead, the doctors pulled and stitched folds of his skin directly into his ripped tendons to strengthen it up with additional "meat."

A totally (disgusting) and temporary measure.

And gutsy?

He was bleeding through his sutures before the end of the 2nd inning.

If the whole team had his heart and Ortiz' calm, professional approach-- sweet Jesus.

oh no i understand the game

I tend to doubt it. These are some of the greatest games ever in any sport. If you fail to see that, then you don't understand the magnitude of what's happening. So why not stay out of the thread if you have nothing to offer except negativity.

the doctors pulled and stitched folds of his skin directly into his ripped tendons to strengthen it up with additional "meat."

I read that this morning. That's straight-up nasty. Plus I have been reading Chaositech lately so I'm sure that didn't help. Curt is harcore.

Didn't know that doctors had done anything to the tendons. All FOX was saying was that he had pain killers shot into it. As usual FOX had the wrong information. It was nice to hear Fox go from a very pro-Yankee broadcast in game 1 to an almost middle of the road broadcast in game 6.

i am continually amazed how yankee fans think Fox is pro-Sox and Sox fans think Fox is pro-Yaks. sad.

I woulda talked more trash if the boards were up during the game, but unfortunately they werent, and you Sox fans wont get to mock me any extra.


Bringing in Pedro was an awful move, not only did it put this game at risk, but it completely screws up Pedro for the WS. If ANYONE can explain what the point was, let me know.

As for the guy who said "if youve seen one baseball game youve seen them all" WOW. actually, if you watched more than one, you would know that the actual baseball cliche is that you will see something in every game that youve never seen before.

And what I've learned the last few day: well, since I already KNEW that it wasnt over till its over...my lesson is

the current generation of Yankee fans are AWFUL.
and they really don't deserve a WS.
the way the quit on the team this year should be punished.

The evil empire has fallen!! The Red Sox are going to the World Series!!

 

[Sialia]

WOOT with lots of WOOTness in it!

I agree with you 100%. It was wrong for a couple of reasons:
1. If you win it screws up the game 1 start of the WS.
2. It brings a lifeless crowd back into the game with the "Who's your daddy" chant.

Glorious. Go, us!

Apparently Pedro typically always throws some pitches mid-way through his rest, just to keep his arm loose. Today happened to be that day, so he asked to be put in. It shouldn't jeopardize him for Saturday and the World Series.
