  • Okay, lets talk some 2010 Red Sox. How many wins are we getting from Dice-K this year? Is he going to work his ass off and stick to the pitching routine given to him and achieve his potential as a top 5 pitcher in the AL? Or will it be the same old routine with the shrugging shoulders, walking guys and giving away games in the 3rd inning?

    The news about him hiding his injury from the Sox so he could pitch in the WBC is very troubling and it might end up pissing off Theo enough to cut the cord on our Japanese friend, but I think he'll be given his fair shot in Spring Training (later this month!!!)

    The bulk of regular season games go onsale Saturday. With the exception of yanks, monster, and RF roof seats. Not that it matters because no one ever gets good seats, or seats at all, playing the virtual waiting room game. The fact that the sox are in bed with ace tickets is fucking terrible!

    I didn't try this year, but I got good seats last year doing the virtual waiting room thing.

    I got tix for the first two Phils Red Sox games in June. Will be driving up from Philly to watch my Sox with nothingman44. And I have tix for a game on the monster still to be determined.

    I'm still sick from dropping a homer by Youk last year on the monster.

    OH MY, GOD, YES. I just want to say this is the best thing written by anyone ever.

    http://www.the700level.com/2010/01/dont ... .html#more

    Really? Because if you read the column it is in response to, Simmons doesn't say one thing about how he's currently a suffering fan.

    Simmons wrote ...
    I was thinking about her three Mondays later, after the NFC Championship Game, when I was sifting through e-mails from devastated Vikings fans, and I realized that, for some readers, I apparently have turned into the "Sports Whisperer." They channel me as an outlet for their pain.

    Why me? Because I have a column and an e-mail address. Because, as a Red Sox fan, I suffered through a lifetime of losing lowlighted by two of the worst defeats in sports history. Because I once wrote the "Levels of Losing" as a way to quantify sports pain. Because things worked out for me; the Red Sox eventually won titles in 2004 and 2007. If any stranger could understand your anguish after a heartwrenching loss, it's me. You don't even have to trap me in a car and blare Coldplay. Just send me an e-mail.

    Suffered ... past tense. Not sure what the Philly writer is getting all bent out of shape about.

    Simmons documented his 'pain' long before The Pats won in 2001 and the Sox in '04 ... It's not like he just started writing about it. He had his web site since the mid 90s.

    Seems like the article you thought was "The best thing ever written by anyone" is someone with reading comprehension issues.

    Old news? Tell that to your fellow Yankee fan who posted the Sox are "20 behind" ... indeed, because that's not talking about the distant past.

    You can't have it both ways.

    which, I tipped my cap to yanks fans for.

    nice to see some yanks fans are back to their ways ... after bitching about how Sox fans were so arrogant.
