More proof Amish people don't get it.
Amish people, who are supposedly very traditional, using paint ball guns? And this is all ridiculous. The guy passed what four times? He was starting to tempt them wasnt he? They shoulda stopped throwing at that car, he was obviously pissed...

Bulls***. Kimm did not make the right call. Even if Rowand had a shot at making it, you still don't send him. You then have runners on 2nd and 3rd with 1 out. One flyball wins the game. We didn't execute earlier, but who says we won't execute in the 9th? If we don't, then the players suck, not the managers or coaches. Exactly.

Maybe theyll beat the other two losers in this division (Royals and Twins) but what are they going to do in the postseason? This team doesnt have what it takes...

Lets not hijack my thread but I dont have a college football team. I like Penn State a bit but I only watch games for the football, not the standings or winners. I like the NFL...

Worst Umpiring of the Year
I hated it, but he was fair. He made that terrible call to Graffanino and then ejected Manuel who had his back turned (you dont do that!), but he still made the same call to one of the BoSox hitters and he gave Lee a pretty close ball-strikes call in the tenth. He made some mistakes but he was fair...

I even forgot about Rios. So there was still one flyball capable hitter on the bench...

Goddamn Bruce Kimm

This team is depressing
That game today made me puke. It was sad and depressing in every possible way it could be. First off, why the heck did Manuel leave Buehrle in so long? Buehrle was getting knocked around in the sixth. It could be argued he shouldnt have gotten out of that inning. Then he starts the next inning and ends up giving up a run before Sullivan came in. Bad managing. Then we had the two bases loaded, one out situations that we blew. Playoff teams dont blow those opportunities! Especially not when they have the heart of the lineup up like we did. Then why did Rowand get waved around in the ninth? What was Bruce Kimm thinking? Rowand was bustin his butt and it was obvious he was doomed at the plate. Now maybe because Harris was in there and hes not Everett with the bat, you wave him but if you hold him up, think about it. Rowand has speed, theres runners on second and third, one out and Harris at the plate. Since Harris isnt a good flyball hitter, you can put the squeeze on. I could see that working. Or if Daubach hadnt been completely wasted, you can bring him in and have him try to get one in the air. And of course, if Everett is in, just let him hit. That was stupid aggressive on Kimms part and it cost us. And how do you give up two homeruns to David Ortiz? Thats nothing to do with the managing, but two bombs, one go ahead and one game winning, to Ortiz is rather sad. And then there was Credes final AB. Great swing and I thought it was tied, I really hate when I get teased like that. He tried tho atleast. All in all, Im starting to question whether this team belongs in the playoffs...

The Sox arent playing better. The Cubs are easily. The Sox are just a loser team doing well in a loser division.
