Sutcliffe and Repsin just gushed about the Sox

[Greg Hibbard 690]

During the Orioles/Red Sox ESPN game

 

They talked all over two abs about how the Sox were the story of the year, basically ignoring the play-by-play

 

Both had Guillen as the manager of the year too.

 

I'd like to say I'm one of those cats who doesn't care what the national media thinks, but dammit, I do in some ways. And it was nice to see us getting some tick on another game.

 

We've gotten the shaft year after year, even in 2000, in terms of coverage and recognition. For me, part of this year (obviously not even close to the biggest part) is my "about damn time" year.

 

Funniest moment:

 

Repsin: "I like how Ozzie handled the Frank Thomas situation in a low-key manner"

 

uh, no Dave.

 

Sutcliffe immediately contradicted him by relating how Ozzie challanged Frank, but it was so smooth on the air you would've thought he was just adding to the thought

 

anyway, it was really cool to see

i saw that, no shocker, the only contending manager for the manager of year to this point would have to be frank robinson

[Greg Hibbard 690]

oops it's Dave O'Brien, not Dave Repsin....ahahahha

Do they give an award in each league or overall?

Each league has their own reward.

Each league has their own reward.

What's the reward? I know the AWARD is a trophy and bragginf right for managers!

 

Anyway, it is nice to see people FINALLY recognizing how truly talented and incredible this team is.

No, our team sucks and we need Jason Schmidt.

[WilliamTell 115]

Wish I could've heard it but I'm glad the Sox are getting props from them.

It was cool driving to mizzou for orientation we had the cardinals game on and when they were reading the scores of the day, the mentioned the sox and then went on to talk for about 5 minutes about how impressive they were...so while we aren't getting national press...don't think we aren't noticed..

 

btw...st. louis' radio announcers were great, i enjoyed listening to them.
