Pretty sure this thread hasn't been posted yet. Lets keep it light on the douchebagness - You know who you are.

 
Youkilis is such a pansy.

Youkilis, hitting .200 with three RBIs entering Monday's game against Tampa Bay, told reporters before the 11:05 a.m. ET series finale against the Rays, "I was confused by those remarks. Everyone knows I play the game hard."Valentine spoke out on WHDH radio on Sunday night: "I don't think he's as physically or emotionally into the game as he has been in the past for some reason."
And the you get this
"I don't know what Bobby's trying to do, but that's not the way we do things here," said Pedroia. "Maybe that stuff works in Japan."

The two biggest #######s that took on new manager roles this year, Bobby V and Ozzie.... Only took both of these clowns a 1/2 a month to start showing their true colors.

Bobby Valentine :lmao: What a crappy hire for the Sawx.
 
:shrug:

Youkilis is sucking this year. I have no issues with the manager calling out their underperforming players.

This year? :confused: 9 games in out of 162. New manager coming in and starts taking public shots at one of the more stand up vets on the team after 9 games. What the hell could go wrong? :tfp:
 
Mark Melancon just had one of the finest outings I've ever witnessed.

TOP 8th:

M Melancon relieved M Albers.

I Kinsler doubled to left.

E Andrus walked.

J Hamilton homered to right, I Kinsler and E Andrus scored.

A Beltre homered to center.

D Murphy walked.

N Cruz homered to center, D Murphy scored.

J Thomas relieved M Melancon.

No outs registered. Two walks, four hits, three HRs, 6 ER.

:thumbup:

 
Any homers have any idea why Fred Lynn did not show up at the Fenway 100th?

Seems a notable omission.

I think Bob Zupcic was there--but no Freddie.

 
Nice festivities today.

I like how the Red Sox captured the essence of the past 100 years, including getting embarrassed by the Yanks.

:excited:

I gotta admit... it was a pretty cool sight. :thumbup:

 
The magic in this rivalry is definitely on hold. This Sox team just doesn't have "it". They have a great core of talented All Stars and obviously can compete and win the division......but they just have the "get under you skin and make you hate them" guys of the past decade.....even Youklis "### hole aura" seems to be a shell of its former self.

Papelbon and varitek leaving hurt things, but enough bad can't happen to Beckett and pedrioa for me. Plus the bobby v thing will. Be pure :popcorn:
 
I'm a sox fan but this is an extremely unlikeable team. From the top on down. Actually like watching them fail, making for some great local sports radio.

 
not for nothing but is it really bobby v's fault? hes not the one that built this horrendous pitching staff and depthless roster
