It wouldn't even occur to me to consider that they'll call a fair game. The Sox will surely take the series due to officiating. Why would anyone even question that?

[sam vincent]

this baseball show is pathetic. ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC. they've gone over the playoff scenario about 200 times every hour. HEY WE GOT IT WE UNDERSTAND. Not only that they've been repeating the same stupid @!&%ing jokes every hour and listing the WEEI weekend schedule. isn't this the @!&%ing baseball show? The callers have more knowledge than the hosts.

wondering if anyone has hear Meter's commerciail for Milton's? He touts his contrarian attitude in order to market Milton's as a place to shop. Someone should call Milton's and let them know they should get that spot off the air ASAP.

[Funkhouser]

I boycott any store/service/dealer that Meter pimps. Any business that wants that turd hawking their stuff deserves to go under.

Is it game time yet???????


Stuck at work :angry: but I have the 3" TV here. :D

Mike Adams has his faults but he is very sincere and at least he's polite to his callers. This is a million times better than the angry 50 year old virgin.  Sarandis was impossible to listen to and would only let those who scrubbed his nuts get a word in edgewise.  good riddance. Adams maybe a buffoon but at least he's sometimes entertaining and enthusiastic.

I say this without any personal knowledge of Sarandis at all, but I'm not sure his anger was truly who he is. His show has gotten progressively worse, presumably due to the information in the earlier post. The station wanted him gone, they probably paid him very little, wouldn't pay his guests and wanted him to "entertain' when all he wanted to do was talk about sports.

I don't condone him taking the show to lower depths, but I don't entirely blame him eitther. He is a genuine fan and a nice guy who was bullied out of the business by the lowest common demoninator. Sad that you can't make it on that station without a shtick or an attitude. It didn't used to be that way, and he fit in fine for a while. He's better off without the rest of them.

interesting take. agree with much of that, but ted was a downright a.sshole to his callers/listeners.

is the picture really bad for anyone else?

He was as shtick driven as the rest of them. Witness his refusal to take any call which dared to ask who a team might acquire/release in the offseason, which is a legitimate sports question.

I'm surprised the batters box doesn't sprout hair after his at bats...eff sheff, btw...

[sam vincent]

How Dare You!!

[Turd Furguson]

Not a good start given the shadows of the park and Randy Johnson on the mound.


Go White Sox!!

[baskerville holmes]

Didnt make it out of the 1st half an inning before Buck and Mccarver forced me over to the Spanish feed.

[Brian]

You never know what you're going to get with Wakefield. Hopefully he settles the hell down.

[rrsafety]

Horrible inning by Wake... :angry:

[Feejis]

2 of the runs are on Wakefield, 1 is on Renteria.

Not an encouraging start

[Div]

Note to Trupiano:

"Minimalize" = not a word.
"Minimize" = word.

:angry:

[buzzardluck]

I missed the Baseball show on eei...I sure hope Buck told the story about RJ being an amatuer photographer and how much he loves Boston's architecture...I'm welling up just thinking about...if somehow he could dovetail "Rancho Cucomungo" into it...wow

[Feejis]

So much for the umps being on the Sox payroll.

:angry:

[Miserable Fellow]

Damon with another stolen base.

Interesting that when the chips are down, the Sox are running and trying plays more than they have in the previous month.

[Turd Furguson]

Manny!!!!!

*Edit - this should be a tie game*

[buzzardluck]

MANNY!!!

[sam vincent]

what the @!&%!! YEAH MANNY!!

what's up with the fox broadcastholes??

[Feejis]

Semi-regular lineup for Guillen today.

Perez
Iguchi
Gload
Konerko
Everett
Rowand
Pierzynski
Blum
Ozuna

Podsednik, Dye, Uribe and Crede not in the lineup.

[Turd Furguson]

Olerud would have had that.

[sam vincent]

Millar !&%$. totally !&%$. that might have cost them the game.

[rrsafety]

Geesshhh... this is really bad....

What's the matter with these people??!!?? Is their sense of entitlement that bad?? Look only to the 1999 ALCS, morons, where bad call after bad call went against the Red Sox, and to rub it in later, umps were calling Yankee players by their nicknames. :angry: :angry: Yeah, nothing wrong with that.

And New York teams in every sport seemed to get officiating breaks more than others - up until the last few years, in my opinion. Why this has changed, I don't know, or maybe it's just my perception.

[sam vincent]

thanks millar you @!&%ing pile of dogcrap.

[Turd Furguson]

Its one thing for guys like Sheffield, Matsui, A-Rod and Jeter to beat you but to let Tino, Flaherty and Bernie hit the ball around you know you're in trouble.


So Millar cant generate any runs and then is responsible for 2 runs. Nice. We've been Millar'd.

[Jason]

wakefield doesn't have anything today.

They're doing what comes naturally. :angry:
Is it possible Joe Fluck reads this board? He made a crack about hitting the mute button "even more." Last night on here, there was a reference to that in anticipation of today's game. :)

Didnt you know, its their god-given right to have their beloved Yankees win the World Series every year. And if they dont, its either the umps or a conspiracy by Major League Baseball that prevents them from doing so. Dont you know, they have a storied history!!!

Nope the fact that Wake couldnt get a @!&%ing little leaguer out today will cost them the game. This game is over he has NOTHING

i'd rather blame millar, rationality be damned. :D if he catches that ball there are two outs, he gets the DP.

[sam vincent]

are they going to update the clevealnd game after every @!&%ing batter? give it a @!&%ing rest.

Hmm...it's still the regular season. Roberto Petagine may have had that, also. Terry may THINK it's the playoffs, but he's got a bench-full of guys who can field better, and they're available. Could it be any worse? In addition, Millar doesn't hit that well against lefties at Fenway.

[TjM]

Oh great Damon is up <_<

No chance Petagine gets a start in the biggest game of the year against Randy Johnson.

Olerud, maybe, but he'll be playing tomorrow and this sun seems to be killing the lefties on the Sox today at the plate.

Hey RJ - it is possible for a pitch not to be a strike you shiitbum. STFU!!!

[TjM]

If I hear Mcarver talk about how the Yanks always bring the whole infield in on mound visits Im going to find him and kick him in the nuts. And Pettagini is home (Serious Family emergency.)

RJ is kind of shaky himself, but you fear if he gets off the hook, he'll get better as the game goes on.

[Sea Bass]

I hope he walks Edgar and has a nutty.
