Ya know what Kip, we must always like the same players. The two Kip fans and two of the lone Konerko supporters. He roped that one down the line earlier in the game but got robbed.

I have nothing against Manuel other then the way he manages games. I have no doubt that he is a good person and I wish him the best of luck.

That is the best freaking razor. I switched from my cheapo disposable razors to the Mach 3 after they sent me one for my 18th.

I really should just pin this damn topic. Its not like it will ever go away, at least not this season.

If the Sox get swept in four the season is over. The main goal then is blowing this team up. I don't want to watch everyone go away as free agents and this team to really suck next year. Then again, could it be any worse then this year? Tigers end the inning but they score four runs.

That works too. I'm gonna call the organization tomorrow. Who exactly would I talk to? And would it actually be worth my time?

I want him on the first plane to Kansas City.

Not a bad idea Mario...look what you've got me into. I'm gonna start an official post on Soxtalk that says Fire Jerry Manuel. All I want are names on it. Does anyone know an email addie to send it to and we could send the thread over to them with all the peoples name and reason to fire him.

Time for Family Guy!!!

This is the time to get the absolute s*** knocked out of you. Then maybe, just maybe it will lead to an absolute blowup of this team or at the very least a new manager.

Thank goodness I got baseball tonight on. I don't want to watch this crap.

I'm starting to think JR just doesn't want to pay Backmans airfare. Maybe if we call him up and say we'll pay for it, then we could have him as the manager.

I think we need a new one that says Heartless Bastards and has a Sox logo in the middle of it. And if any of the Sox hit a homer and one of you guys catch it, I say throw the damn ball back. Maybe then they'll realize that homers don't mean crap if your only swinging for the fences. Show me some singles, doubles, opposite hits, bunts, sac flies, and good baserunning and I could give a damn if they ever hit homers. Did I mention good pitching. Sox should acquire Ponson and give up whatever hitter or hitters the Dodgers want to get Odalis Perez and then move Colon.

Oh, they can be ousted to say the lease. All I need is a call from Jerry to tell me I'm the GM and I can promise immediate changes. I'll be going in with a mission to blow this s*** up, and get ready for next year. Heck, I still think after blowing this team up, and getting a new manager, they could still win the central.

Im' sick of hearing. The guy just pitched great against us. Yet the SOB hasn't pitched a great game the entire season. He hangs a bunch of pitches but they do crap, and then they go out and say it was a well pitch game. Today was a joke in the first inning against Maroth. All the Sox were trying to pull outside fastballs/changeups that were out of the zone (Alomar did have a solid at bat; liked the bunt attempt). I do like Everett and actually Konerko though.

The best part of firing him is their is a shot the next guy can put some life into this team. We know Jerry can't, so what the hell is the point of keeping him. If this team is still playing like crap and the Sox don't blow this thing up, firing the managers, trading a lot of the players, then I'm gonna be pissed. Damn It I need to vent. I'm gonna have to buy me a punching bag, if I'm gonna keep watching this filth.

Well, I've been preaching for small ball since the start of the season. I always said it was hopeless for JM to be a small ball manager, even though he claims he is one. Through six seasons with the Sox, since 2000 this team has played absolutely no small ball, and every year the fundementals continue to get worse (Especially in regards to small ball). Gimme a break, what has this guy done to keep his job. I'm not saying the players are doing anything to keep their jobs.

or perhaps we could just fire JM? But that would be too easy Common sense says he should of been gone at the break at the very latest. He has had 6 years with this team (I think). 2000 was great, the years before that were fine. 2001 was dissapointment, but I'll blame injuries. Last year and then this year are jokes. Both of these teams had the talent to win the division and floundered and played crappy baseball.

Not with Jerry as the manager. Why don't we just hire Jerry Springer, at least then we'd have some boxing matches to entertain us during the ballgames.

If you think about it, the only time this team ever scores is when they score about 5 in and inning and then go to sleep the rest of the game. Never do I see two and three run innings unless a homer is involved. Its a freaking joke. Can the manager, and can the players. This is a lost cause.

Kip, I think you say it all in that post. :fyou the Sox.

I decided to watch Rush Hour 2 on TV instead of the filth of the Sox. Of course I keep flashing back to hope to see something happen, all I saw was Colon continue to get squeezed and then hit. This is so pathetic. Its time for a closed door meeting where some tables and chairs are thrown. I'm thinking the SOx need to get in a brawl with the Tigers tonight to wake themselves up.

I'm a Bulls fan, I just don't have time for other message boards.

Screw a doubleheader I don't want to put that kind of pressure on the pen. I just want to start the second half on a winning note today. I don't care what KC, Minnesota or anyone else does, I only care what the Sox do.

Great to see Rauch made an appearance.
