My Carolina boys have to play Virginia, the 15th ranked Cavaliers.....sniff, sniff....hmm, I'm smelling an upset here.

nawww, that makes too much sense...come on Cerbaho

Don't fret....if baseball season doesn't end the way you wanna, theres always college football!!

Just to add a little more salt to the wound, KC winning 3-1 in the bottom of the 8th....gonna be a tie for 1st with Minny, KC 1 gm behind....this 2 game series hurt BIGTIME

I have the sneaky feeling that if we go beyond the 10th, Koch is gonna get a shot in this one.

Huh??? Its Rowands fault that he was sent home on that play?? How is that? He's the best defensive outfielder we have, Everett couldn't even hold his jockstrap in terms of defense.

thats Jose "Clutch" Valentin The guy only hits when you need it, and thats ok by me!

Jose's 23 straight hitless at-bat streak is now over.

Nice play Sandy...big out there.

And theres CLee, trying to get 3 runs on one swing.

Bah....0-2 pitch hit into LF for a single, Nomar scores...1-0 BoSox

Bad pitch up in the zone to Manny, single to RF, 1st and 2nd, 2 outs

Mueller flies out to Maggs in RF Nomar gets a single, between short and third man on 1st, 2 outs

no more half-assed offensive efforts for the rest of the season. can't afford them with Minny bearing down on us hard.

True, you never know when you'll get another gem from Colon.

Just didn't happen there. We'll survive.

now 6-3 Texas, 2nd and 3rd, 1 out for the Rangers in the 6th

NO!! an Armando Rios sighting.... :puke

What makes it worse is that it was Kaplers 1st HR since June 29th...blah!

Chalk another one to your sig, hsc!!

yes, but Roman that is his right....the beauty of a censor-free messageboard is that members can post what they want to. I ca talk about the fact that Everett has no clue whatsoever on how to play centerfield, and it doesnt matter who agrees with me. The best solution is not to read it if it bothers you.

hey man, check your image hosting site...the avatar and sig arent working...just givin ya a heads up

Ding, ding!! Expectations of Colon vs what he makes $$$ wise, thats the difference

I can't believe that race is even being used as an excuse here. The reason alot of us don't like Colon is because the guy SELF-ADMITTEDLY pitches better when things are going well. Thats bulls*** reasoning from supposedly one of the best ptchers in the game. His numbers with us this year are crap, considering what he is capable of doing. Buehrle is a battler in there, most Sox fans know that he will give up hits, doesn't walk too many, nor K too many, but he gets the job done most of the time. What identity does Colon have? Well, we thought he was a power pitcher who could be at times dominating. What we didn't know was that apparently he likes to decide his "dominating" performance time. Everyone on here knows Colon is capable of so much more than he has done this year, based on his abilities.
