50-53 now against AL teams. We're suppose to actually think this team can win an AL division??

This is just a dumb team from top to bottom. If there were 2 outs then fine, take the chance. But no reason ever to get thrown out at home with less than 2 outs.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 21, 2010 -> 04:16 PM) Whatever happened to the old Sunday doubheader? They had getaway days back then, too. Murphy's Law dictates a lot of baseball, and little sleep, in a short period of time. 6:10 start of Game One. Let's say it's 3:30 game like many AL games, it ends at 9:40. Game Two starts at 10. Game Two ends at 1:30 a.m. Tomorrow's game is 1 p.m. Sox get to hotel at 2:30, assuming they don't drink, go to bed by 3. Sox wake up at 8 to get to ballpark by 9. Wow. Maximum sleep is five hours if all goes well. Extra innings? AL games arent normally 3.5 hours...

The next 10 days will be the best chance to get back a couple of games. After that, the Twins really have a favorable schedule. 3 vs LAA 4 @ Tex 3 @ Sea 3 vs Det 3 vs Tex 3 @ Cle 3 @ Sox 3 vs Oak 3 vs Cle 3 @ Det 3 @ KC 4 vs Tor

QUOTE (T R U @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 09:11 PM) I just think it was weak, they even continued on the ground for a little while afterwards with Sonnen looking like he didn't know why it was stopped.. Here's a good gif showing Sonnen going out for a few seconds.

QUOTE (G&T @ Aug 19, 2010 -> 08:55 AM) I hate the start of football because it marks the end to summer. Since I was a kid, football training camp meant I was heading back to school and I have hated it forever. I like football when it gives me another excuse to drink on a cold ass day in December. I use to hate NFL Primetime on Sundays because it was during that time I would have to take a shower and get ready for bed when I was little. Almost like the weekend was officially over and school was the next day. Now I'm itching for football once June starts. Outside of watching the Sox, I couldnt care less about watching a baseball game. Just give me Quick Pitch on MLB Network and I'm good.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 19, 2010 -> 02:47 PM) I got a feeling the Sox will win this game to drag us along for the ride for a little while longer only to break our hearts some time later next month. I can see that. If they lose tonight then I wouldnt be surprised if Minnesota wins this division by 10 games.

Thank you, may I have another!

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Aug 18, 2010 -> 07:47 AM) I often get annoyed when the mood gets very negative on here too, but it's hard to say anything after last night. There were just too many factors to overlook. The division race, the Twins again, the bullpen again, the whole Thome saga. I don't see how you can get on people for reacting to last night's loss. On the bright side, it only counts as one loss. The Sox still have a chance to win two and really nobody expected to win more than one in MN, so if they can can come away with one we still have a race on our hands. Anything less than 2 wins in the series and its pretty much a longshot. And they blew 1 win tonight. The Twins are mindf***ing this Sox team and both teams know it.

Well Tebow will be ahead of Quinn in the depth chart just because of the 3rd stringer rule.

It's a must win series. It's time to push the Twins around some. Losing another series to them would be a big blow.

this team is such a joke now.

horrible AB. Guess PK doesnt like straight fastballs.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 03:42 PM) So, 3 back of the Twins coming into a 3 game series in Minny. Basically, we play like we usually do in Minny and that's the division. Yup. Anything short of winning the series would put this team on life support.

Josh Freeman had a nice start tonight in the rainstorm in Miami. Went 4-4 53 yards and a TD. This is a 6-10 team at best but I like the overall direction the Bucs are going. Only thing that really bothers me is the lack of depth at QB. If Freeman goes down then the Bills will have a threat for the number 1 overall pick.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Aug 10, 2010 -> 08:36 PM) We need one of those I think. It'd be great to beat up the Twins, haha. They'll probably kick our ass in a brawl too.

I'm so tired of the "who would have thought 2 months ago we'd be here" point. Who cares, all that is in the past now. All that matters is where this team is now going forward, not where they came from.

QUOTE (T R U @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 09:11 PM) I just think it was weak, they even continued on the ground for a little while afterwards with Sonnen looking like he didn't know why it was stopped.. Maybe b/c he went out for a second and didnt remember tapping just seconds ago. Just like when you see a fighter trying to take down the ref after getting KOed.

Sonnen gets tapped all the time. His sub defense is horrible. There were a few times in the final couple of rounds where he was sitting up on both knees and letting Anderson control one of his wrists. It was just a matter of time before he was going to be in major trouble if he kept posturing up like that. As for the tap, I think Sonnen went out for a moment which might have led to the weak tap. He still tried to fight a little even when the ref was on him which makes me believe he wasnt totally "there". It did seem like Anderson held the arm a little too long after the ref jumped in which is cheap. Give Fitch one last shot at GSP and then cut him. He is boring and adds nothing to the UFC. JDS looked alright but I dont see him beating any of the wrestlers(Lesnar,Carwin,Cain).

I wouldnt say Sonnen got lazy at the end, he just got caught. That is what happens to him.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 7, 2010 -> 09:12 PM) Did AJ at least limp off on his own power? Yeah but that really doesnt mean anything. When I broke my ankle I still walked on it for about 3 miles.

hopefully its just twisted...
