[MissMillie]

4. what kind of pistachios?

Hell in a Nutshell?

[NewHampster]

5. Shaw's branded

Great for my Atkins diet

[NewHampster]

6. Millar first pitch and the lineup

the sox have to win now

[flvegan]

7. I heard that Beckett is in line to help after Dice K if need be.

First pitch, Ball 1.

Go SOX!!!!

[bicentennial_baby]

11. He bettah be...

Only my super secret bf can redeem us, if need be :D

[NewHampster]

12. All hands are on deck

[redwitch]

14. hope they don't hafta use Beckett.

We need him for the first game of the big series. Seriesly!

[flvegan]

18. I hope they don't hafta

But I like that they can if they need to. He'll only put in a couple innings hopefully. Dice looks on tonight.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

19. Dice was pretty damn good first time around.

Looked a little jittery, but I think his success gave him some confidence to settle down and really bring it later on tonight.

*crosses fingers*

[flvegan]

22. He's got Japan watching him big time.

I'm sure that's gonna weigh on him a bit tonight.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

28. Yeah, the Faux dipshit announcers were commenting on such.

9:30 AM in Tokyo right now. :D

[redwitch]

51. No pressure dude, just all of Tokyo is takin' the day off to watch you.

Yikes! Clearly he is ok with it!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

52. Yes indeed; another good half-inning from him!

Lookin' good so far, Dice-K!

[bigwillq]

8. Let's Go Tribe!

:bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

10. Amen to that!

:bounce: :bounce:

[rockymountaindem]

9. Verily

Let's kick some ass, Boston!

[NewHampster]

13. Boston loves to play in snow

[WritingIsMyReligion]

17. Hell yes we do!

:bounce:

[rockymountaindem]

45. Except you're not going to have the ref to make BS "forward pass" calls in baseball

Of course, anybody who beats Oakland is fine with me :)

[NewHampster]

54. Will they plow from the mound to home at Coors field?

[rockymountaindem]

62. No

They will merely play with a bright orange ball.

[NewHampster]

67. Can't wait

[WritingIsMyReligion]

15. 3 UP, 3 DOWN!

Nice K, Daisuke!

:woohoo:

[Marrah_G]

16. Great Start!

I can tell all ready it is going to be a GREAT night.

Can you believe the weather? Absolutely perfect!

[NewHampster]

20. It is great but a little snow wouldn't hurt

[Marrah_G]

29. Snow?

Hell, my grass is still green and I haven't turned on the heat yet!

[NewHampster]

40. I lay out in the sun today

[Marrah_G]

41. Bizarre huh?

[NewHampster]

43. Global warming

[Marrah_G]

47. Ya think?? n/t

Pretty soon we are going to be the place everyone moves to for the good weather year round. YUCK

[NewHampster]

21. Youk Youk Youk

[Marrah_G]

23. God is now up!

[johnnie]

24. The Sox, second best team money can buy

They spend over twice as much as the Indians and yet they have to go all 7 games in the playoffs against us..LOL. I'm pretty proud of our scrappy team.

[Marrah_G]

26. awwww

:nopity:

[johnnie]

30. Well, Ortiz is worth it

He was just swinging at the air..lol.

[Marrah_G]

33. I love Ortiz

And really, your Idians had a great year. I just have my pempetive bitch hat on tonight :hi:

[NewHampster]

27. You should be

Great year

[NewHampster]

25. Where's Matcom?

Starting his own thread again or somethin

[WritingIsMyReligion]

31. ???

Ortiz, that was duuumb. Please don't try it again. Thanks.

[NewHampster]

32. First time I've seen you. where is your church ;-)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

34. Haha.

I'm in Greater Portland, Maine. It is INTENSE up here tonight. :D

[NewHampster]

38. I'm in New Hampshire, duh

fun here too.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

39. Love the BoSox, all the way!

:woohoo:

[NewHampster]

35. Manny Manny Manny

[WritingIsMyReligion]

36. Yay-uh on the BOUNCE!

First blood.

[flvegan]

37. 1-0

[rockymountaindem]

42. I see Drew is back in form

Oy.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

46. I hate to hate on boys in the middle of play.

But that disappointed me. I hope Drew can break out again, but I'm not going to hold myself to it.

[NewHampster]

48. Hey. Whadaya want for 70 million?

[WritingIsMyReligion]

50. No shit.

:P

[A-Long-Little-Doggie]

88. That was so freaky...

I was just reading your post when Drew drove in run #6 in the bottom of the 8th!!!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

44. Rally Killer strikes again.

And DAMN, I was hoping for a li'l something more like last night. Ahhh, JD Drew....

[WritingIsMyReligion]

49. 3 UP, 3 DOWN again.

Let's draw another drop of blood, BoSox; just keep it steady.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

53. Keep them bats burnin', boys!

Tek and Ellsbury! All right! Let's capitalize, boys!

[mvd]

56. Eh.. another double play

They shouldn't be like the Eagles were today - should have had 2-3 runs in one of those innings. With the Phillies not there, I'm rooting for the Red Sox. I know Francona and Schilling from their days with the Phils. Good luck tonight. :hi:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

57. I'm just glad they're getting anything, and (so far) keeping the Indians subdued.

I don't want fireworks; I just want a victory. I'm also paranoid as hell. :D

[mvd]

58. That's true - victory counts the most

When I watch baseball, though, I hate when my team leaves the other team in the game. Maybe Daisuke will pitch a gem. :-)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

60. That would be good.

And yeah, stranded/squandered runners bother me, too. I just want points, and as many of them as is possible. :D

[bluedigger]

55. Go Sox!

2-0 in the second and the Fenway Faithful are raucous!

[faithnotgreed]

59. can anyone tell me what the crowd has been chanting

when were up (aka when the indians are pitching)?

thanks ever so much

[WritingIsMyReligion]

61. It's either "hey-ho!" or possibly "West-brooook!"

My dad thinks they're trying to taunt Westbrook.

[faithnotgreed]

63. i agree with your dad but cant make out what exactly it is

i almost had to check to make sure it wasnt byrd somewhere

thank you

[WritingIsMyReligion]

66. I keep hearing it and thinking Youk's up to bat.

:D

[BlueJazz]

64. I think it's either "Westbrook" or "FuckBush"

[NewHampster]

65. Dice K is HOT Woo HOO

[WritingIsMyReligion]

68. Yayuh--that's how to hold 'em back.

Mid-third; let's get just ONE MORE RUN again, boys.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

69. Chippin' away, sacrifice after sacrifice.

3-0 BoSox.

[Highway61]

70. Yes............

[johnnie]

71. Is part of the $145,000,000 used ot pay of the umps?

Lofton was safe.

[DS1]

72. Keep up the pressure, BOSOX

[Tektonik]

73. Daisuke is losing it in the middle innings like always

GO INDIANS :applause:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

74. FUCK YEAH Pedroia!

Just a li'l more, a li'l more...

[DS1]

75. what happened?

[Seabiscuit]

82. Next up: the Rockies!

Sorry, Cleveland, but: game over.

[Marrah_G]

86. RAWRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[WritingIsMyReligion]

78. Dusty gets a two-run off the Monster with Ellsbury on third.

Gotta love dem rookies! 5-2 BoSox.

[NewHampster]

79. The Boston Heebie Jeebies

nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

[NewHampster]

80. ahhhhhhhhhhh

[intheflow]

81. ARGH! I can't find the game on any of my 200 cable stations.

:wtf: You'd think the AL playoffs would make prime time in MT. :shrug:

I'm a die-hard Red Sox fan, living in Rockies territory. Glad I found this thread!

[DS1]

83. It was on Fox at the bar

[edbermac]

84. It's on FOX.

[intheflow]

85. Oops! Found it.

I had looked for it before it started. :dunce:

[redwitch]

87. Go JD!

He has earned his post season pay for sure!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

89. Hahaha, don't smash into one another or anything, guys.

GO TEK!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

90. AND DUSTY COMES THROUGH AGAIN!!

Fucking YEAH, baby!

9-2 TO RED SOX NATION!!!

[DS1]

100. New England steamrollers the sports world this weekend

what a ride

[WritingIsMyReligion]

104. Fuck yes! BoSox, Patriots DESTROY the Dophins, BC is #2 in the nation.

Happyhappyhappy!

[Marrah_G]

91. Have I mention I love my Sox?

[WritingIsMyReligion]

93. Say it again, just for the hell of it.

I LOVE MY RED SOX!

:D

[JTG of the PRB]

92. Whew... Sox looking pretty good right now... 9-2 in the 8th.

Looks like the Indians are going to fall a little short...

[WritingIsMyReligion]

94. *knocks on wood*

:P

[johnnie]

95. Oh well

I guess I'll just have to watch the Rockies kick the Sox's ass. They would have kicked ours, but we ain't gonna go.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

96. Hell, I wouldn't mind losing to the Rockies.

They're a strong team, and I can never be too hard on deserving underdogs.

I do, of course, hope that in the event we end up in the Series, we don't go down in flames. :P

[johnnie]

99. You will

:)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

97. Youk wants a bite! 11-2 Sox.

:bounce:

[intheflow]

106. Unbelievable!

:bounce: This 8th inning will go down in BoSox lore!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

109. For sure!!

:woohoo:

[Oeditpus Rex]

98. HEEbus, he crushed that mutha!

:wow:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

105. You know it, Oedi.

LOVE THAT DIRTY WATER.....

:D

[Oeditpus Rex]

108. Y'notice Cleveland started to fall apart

right after they held Lofton at third?



It's the little things.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

110. It is, it is.

And I was scared, honestly scared there at the end of Dice-K's run and throughout Okajima. But then we got to the 8th and the BoSox blew the lid right off it. What an inning!

[Oeditpus Rex]

126. I think when Cleveland didn't tie it in the seventh

that gave the Sox a boost, not to mention changing the face of the game.

I'd like to hear Skinner's reason for holding up Lofton. That ball was hit hard, but, the tying run with one out in the seventh, in Fenway, on the road? :shrug:




No, not that Skinner.

On the other hand, I'd like to hear his explanation, too. :D



Edit: Oh, heebus, what a way to win it!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

134. Coco Crisp!

Gosh, I hope he didn't wreck anything doing that!

:(

:bounce:

[HEyHEY]

101. OHHHHH BBAAAYBBBY!!!!!!

[redwitch]

102. So, ya think Gagne will pitch the last inning?

Hubby wants to know. He's a trouble maker! :-)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

107. Tell the husband to put a sock in it.

:P

[redwitch]

111. LOL

Where's Matcom? Probably in a Boston bar drunk as a skunk and whooping it up. Wish I was there!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

115. Haha, no shit.

Where are ya, ya magnificent bastahhhhhhd?

:P

[Marrah_G]

112. You mean "put a SOX in it ! "

[Marrah_G]

103. I'm gonna go out on a (really thick) limb here and say....

IT'S ALL OVAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

And just for WIMR: I LOVE MY SOX ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

[WritingIsMyReligion]

114. I LOVE MY SOX!

:P :P :P

:bounce:

[Ekirh]

113. "Casually walks into thread"

Woah there was a baseball game

I'll make a late prediction and say the Red Soxs will win it...

I hope I'm right ;).

[WritingIsMyReligion]

116. I hope you are too!

:hi:

[Ekirh]

117. Yah I know I'm quite late lol . .

I couldn't get the channel to come in . . . but I'm waiting for the drunken celebratory cheering from my best bro as soon as it's officially over. . .

"braces self"

[WritingIsMyReligion]

119. Hahaha, fire up the drunken decoder!

:toast:

[Marrah_G]

118. OMG you are truly a visionary!

~blinks in disbelief~

:toast:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

120. Oh, fer....

Just end the inning so I can go to bed.

[redwitch]

125. We can't go to bed.

We have to go pick up our French exchange student. The bus driver got lost and they are 2 and a half hours late. Yay SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

121. Haha Manny, Ellsbury gets it in left.

:loveya: that rookie.

[intheflow]

122. That was just amazing!

:loveya:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

124. I LOVVVVE HIM.

:D

[WritingIsMyReligion]

123. ONE MORE OUT......

:bounce:

[intheflow]

127. Changed my avatar in celebration!

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

That was a fucking amazing catch to end this game!

[NewHampster]

131. Coco is awesome

[Marrah_G]

132. I hope he didn't hurt himself.

[NewHampster]

135. He is fragile

[NewHampster]

128. Bring on the Rockies

WooHoo

[Marrah_G]

[DS1]

136. sweet.

bedtime.

:hi:

[NewHampster]

137. good night

[Marrah_G]

138. Yup...work tommorrow is gonna be hell with little sleep

Night Everyone !!!

[intheflow]

140. Move to Colorado.

It's only 10 pm here. Of course, I'll be too wired to sleep for another couple hours. And then, it's hard to get regular season Red Sox games here, so never mind. :)

[Marrah_G]

141. Noooooo.... I'll die here in New England

Colorado is a very,very beautiful place to visit though. My brother ran a rafting company in Durango for a decade or two.

[intheflow]

144. I have grown to love the lack of humidity.

And the snow melts quickly, even on October (!) days when it snows, like today. But I know I'll end up back in New England (lived in MA from childhood to my mid-thirties). I have always pictured myself retiring to Maine. :)

[Marrah_G]

145. It's gets into your blood. n/t

[bluedigger]

139. Bring on the Rockies!

Couple of great fielding plays to seal the deal!

I reckon those Indians 2007 AL Champions shirts will be available for a significant discount on ebay about now...

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

:applause: :applause: :applause:

[Marrah_G]

142. Oh snap!

:rofl:

[Bombero1956]

143. recently I read an article about what happens to those clothes

They end up in third world countries.

[bluedigger]

146. Like Cleveland?

...

[DS1]

147. oooof!

:yoiks:
