  1. This is a hilarious read. I thought the SOSH people were supposed to be level headed "smart" posters. I mean I know their viewpoints are going to be unconsciously biased towards the Red Sox and vice versa for us, but some of the things they are saying are just plain ridiculous. They think that not only do the Sox have all the leverage, but they have significant leverage. Nah, I don't think so guys. The Sox have some leverage -- time. What motivation do they have to resolve this quickly? Or before opening day for that matter? They can come out and announce Cherington is the GM and Epstein's role is being sorted out, or he's a special assistant, or whatever they want. Meanwhile the Cubs have no GM. The Sox can say "take it or leave it" indefinitely. The Cubs don't have that luxury. sure, they can go with bush for a year and the sox get nothing.
  2. and they'd make a huge mess even bigger. it sounds like something someone made up.
  3. red sox fans are meatballs. most have never been out of boston, so they'd have no idea how fans are in another part of the country.
  4. it's your brain, it's not working properly.
  5. Report: Area man can't figure out if it's cute or sad that Carlos Pena doesn't know his contract has expired already.
  6. brett jackson paged while shopping at Aldi.
  7. it's funny how both lucchino and henry have to be backed into a corner and threatened with beatings until they'll even say the word chicago.
  8. why say that? what a raging anus.
  9. i could live with castillo playing every day. but soto is a nice piece i'd rather have for actually trading for prospects.
  10. i think it's just a way of saying koyie hill can't hit.
  11. So if Theo is such an idiot, why do we have to give up anything for him? Because he's under contract with the Red Sox. I should rephrase, why should we give them anything of value for Theo if he's the only 'idiot' in that organization to sign Crawford to the deal. Forget that Crawford was a very good player with Tampa Bay before this season. Not saying he was worth that contract but the Red Sox have the financial ability to overspend on players. A comment like this should hurt some of the Red Sox leverage though. I agree, but Boston doesn't. So here we are... where is that?
  12. i would want to distance myself from that deal as well, that was a meatball contract. i don't know if theo was trying to be ironically funny with that signing, but it wasn't good.
  13. that's a scary thought, from all reports, Paea has no business on a football field.
  14. i would much rather have marshall.
  15. I'm not pretending. Then that's depressing. You are like this normally? i don't think you understand what he was saying
  16. Even quade? even bruce kimm
  17. if theo gets hired today, i would be happy with anyone as manager.
  18. CC trying to be clever and cynical at the same time is just depressing
  19. do they even know anything about our system?
  20. Not following that. that definitely doesn't make any sense. They are just jealous that their baseball team has as many leaks as the titanic, while the Cubs are stealthy. Or they could have very good reason to state their claim. I doubt a team is just going to throw this out there without some kind of proof. You'd be surprised what the Boston media would throw out there just to see if it stuck. This isn't the 1920's and you can no longer take everything the media says at face value. In fact, the general rule should be to not trust anything you hear in the media until multiple sources confirm it. the liberal media
  21. CC is on the mutha [expletive] prowl, haters
  22. i've heard lucchino sleeps 1 hour a night. he's a great man.
  23. I think you underestimate the stupidity and insanity of the Boston fan base. Chicago has its idiots, NY is incredibly demanding. But Boston has all the idiocy of Chicago plus the demands of NY. every single boston fan is a meatball, even the smart ones.
