  2. aq little too late to change pitchers, IMO the sox catch a break that it's not 8-4 on that at bat. lets do this, pena!
  3. He did have some pretty good cuts at the dish. He smoked one for his 2nd out. I think he'll collect a few hits over there in the NL.
  4. I think since I've started to read Soxtalk more often that you have overtaken CrimsonWeltall as the funniest poster/one-line-shooter on this forum.
  5. awwww he's all done after the homer. PADRES fans with the standing O for CR very nice.
  6. We were due for a pretty horrible road trip. We must really focus at home and win games at home just as badly as Detroit in Detroit and Minnesota in Minnesota. We have to become better then a .500 home team, which is about where we're at right now. We were about a .500 road team until this latest trip. You can't go 1-6 on every road trip so let's hope that was just a tough swing and get ready for a different team. Embody the "different location, different team" mindset just as some hitters do when a dominant starting pitcher is removed from the game. We can beat the Yankees, we just have to play very hard. They are playing very well and personally I think they should be due for a bad series at a time like this. One last thing -- we have to kick the asses of Detroit and Minnesota in OUR house. Toss them around like used dolls as they did us. Use this 1-6 road trip as a 'chip on your shoulder' to propel you forward.
  7. It's safer for cyclists to use sidewalks, especially if those sidewalks are bigger then normal. True, it is law for them not too. That I do not understand. What is more dangerous, a sidewalk of people walking with a few bicycles, or a road of people on bicycles with cars and trucks? I've ridden on the riverwalk in the Fox Valley area and it's so easy to tell pedestrians "comin' up behind you!" and they can accordingly give you space. Cyclists on the road are not so fortunate. The cars on the road might not necessarily be in a hurry, but the last thing those cars on the road want to see is a cyclists swerve and fall into or in front of them while driving. The fact that you have to pass the cyclists makes it that much more dangerous. Normally when I'm passing a cyclists I like to yield them plenty of room for error just in case. That's tough to do sometimes because then you must temporarily take up a portion of the left lane or the oncoming traffic lane... another situation most drivers want nothing to do with. Law is law and it should be followed, but I would not be opposed to changing the law so it's not illegal for cyclists to be on the sidewalks. There are a ton of cyclists here in Idaho Falls... most of them just use the sidewalk. We have nice sized sidewalks here, no one seems to get in trouble for using them (because everyone does), and most important no one gets stressed out or gets put into unnecessarily dangerous predicaments.
  8. There's 2 months yet. Losing a couple games now isn't bad, but my biggest fear is if it puts Detroit on a roll. I hate how sports are sometimes. The Sox are a far better team then Detroit, but a combination of bad luck and decent pitching from Detroit ended up killing us.
  9. Right now it's pretty much like "everyone on this team sucks ass except for Buehrle and Wise. And Josh Fields, too."
  10. The Tigers have had a lot of luck this series too... seriously. I think their collective team put a rabbits foot up its ass before this series.
  11. The worst part about this is it makes Detroit feel better. They will probably go on a roll and this series will be looked as the one that f***ed our chances of a division title.
  12. And we will probably load the bases with nobody out and fail to score. This series has been too reminiscent of earlier in the season. Plus a bad bullpen now too.
  13. what a let down perfect game and then a no-show against Detroit there is no such thing as momentum for our sox
  14. Gordon needs to be a bit more patient with bases loaded nobody out. Oh well... he's learning.
  15. This had better be ALL the crap... this is getting kind of ridiculous now...
  16. His luck this inning has been terrible. No luck at all for him today. A bunch of lucky Tiger bloops.
