    I don't think anyone says shit because what would it accomplish? His career died, he is retired, and he is not HOF worthy. He never played on a championship team or in the World Series. He is actually rather forgettable and if people have forgotten that is no surprise.

    There was a time not too long ago when a season like this one would have sent the entire region into a depression. Not anymore. 2004 was the breakthrough, but 2007 and 2013 are what really changed things. Now a down year feels only like the anomaly that it is. They'll be back. :-)

    True Dat! After 2004 I was good for 10 years then 2007 I came down for spring training and met Manny R they won again and 2013 @ Fenway. Hmmmmmm I think I'm good till I reach my end.

    This is one of the greatest commercials ever filmed. Just perfect for the moment back in 2004.

    Is it any surprise, at all, that Reinsdorf had Boston play along with his little game trying to get Werner elected as Commissioner? Of course the small market Boston Red Sox would want a hard ass who hates players making money as the Commissioner

    That was really well done.

    I didn't have as much of a problem with the Mo ceremony as everyone else but they knocked it out of the park today

    No sox fans on here since the beginning of August? I know you guys had a bad year, but wow!

    If recent history is any indication (down year in 2006 --> WS in 2007, terrible year in 2012 --> WS in 2013) watch out for the Sox next year.

    Just sayin'.

    If you steal our Panda, I hope Zito can do something deny you pissers the Kung Fu nickname.

    I'm also worried that Sloppi will get him on the juice. :-$

    Did I get it right by calling you "pissers"? That was kind of a shot in the dark. I do know you like "wicked."

    It is "pissah", and it can either mean something is very good or very bad. That said...no one I know ever says that. It became part of the stereotype without ever having been in widespread use, as far as I can tell. Wicked strange if you ask me. ;-)

    I've heard a fucking hilarious parody of Boston Guy calling a local sports talk radio. True or not, there is a definite perception of Boston Guy.

    Sox sign the young kid from Cuba, Yoan Moncada. 19 years old. A year or two from Fenway if you believe the reports.

    Though, he should've been made to go into the draft.

    Ortiz in great shape to start camp. Yoan signing should be a good one since he can play many positions on the infield. Sox look ready to compete in the very tough East division.

    It should be a fun year.

    Not sure how good the AL East will be this year, but it will be tough because i don't think there's a dominant this year.

    Dusty's eventual replacement. No amount of "I think I can" can overcome age and the aches and pains of playing so hard.
