You know you’re a crazy Red Sox fan if you believe that folks taking off en masse to watch the Pats-Broncos game caused the Red Sox to lose today. This is how the conversation went: They’re up? Two runs? Alright, I’m audio video – goin’ to bump my baL @ the Pats lolol…Moments later, Papelbon has a “regular ol’ thermonuclear meltdown,” and lays said egg (see photo). With Bull Durham on repeat, we can only see Paps and Theo having a monster offseason, so beware pups.
Anyone miffed to see that temp Wagner in the 8th instead of fireballer Daniel Bard? The kid was hot by the end of 7 (101 mph). Instead we got Tito’s wrote strategy that used to be formulated with more desperation. 2-time recent World Series winners, there are currently too many high paid pitchers needing to get playing time. And why not sub in Capt. Tek for defensive purposes? Who were we trying to rest? Bard, age 24? Shouldn’t have ‘Tek been out there win or lose? Phaw and phooey…the fix was in.
Since Terry was out to lunch, Paps looked seriously stiff probably from lack of use, thanks Sox O… speaking of which the Sox are 0-2 in postseason bids without Manny. Is it greed to feel discontent when they don’t make it to the Series (of all places?) or is it that Manny looks like The Babe more and more all the time? Straightaway quick, I’d go get that witch doctor KG to reverse the new curse if Tom Werner traded Manny to finance a 2010 screen adaptation of The Cosby Show. ttt
