2. Ellsbury's steal was Francona's way of saying
to the Yankees, 'We pwned you this weekend.' The glow on his face after that play was priceless.

15. Too late on that one, too. That's been laid to rest.

Good luck finding many souls in this area that aren't thrilled to see the smeghead 3,000 miles away. ;)

You can pick on the B's if you want. They haven't had any success in awhile. Even this year, while it's nice beating the Habs, isn't successful....yet. :P

5. 10-0 at home. 2-6 on the road.
10 straight at home and still just in 2nd place.

Go Jays!

6. Hooray for feasting on the Central Division!
It's going to be a rude awakening for the Jays when that free buffet gets turned off and they've gotta face real competition.

7. Uhhh...yeah
If you say so.

Let's see what happens when the bumsox head back out on the road.
Which is...their next nine games!!!

As an aside - Let's check the Sox wins

Oakland 1 win in 3 tries
The Orioles
The Twins (They're in the Central I believe)
The Yankees (Who always suck in April and May)

I'd hold off dissing other teams' schedules for a while.

9. The Orioles and Yankees were both doing fine
until they faced the Sox. That stuff that went down at the beginning was just a slow start. I'm going to wager that's in the past now.

10. Okay here we go...
Baltimore
vs the White Sox 2-1
vs the Rangers 3-3 (That's the Rangers that are 4-5 vs the awful AL Central, but 3-3 against the 'Doin' fine Orioles)
vs Boston and NY 2-5

11. You're arguing against yourself
If the Orioles are so bad, having them with a winning record against the White Sox and Rangers doesn't reflect well on the Central Div. where the Jays have played most of their games. The fact that the O's tanked against the Sox and Yankees proves that the Eastern Div. is where the action is. Jays record: 0-0. We'll see...

12. No I'm not
I don't think the Central Division sucks

You do.
