I’d say slam it in a door to relieve the pressure, but the Leafs will find a way to do that by mid-December.

Clipboard Jesus is going to Frank Reich the shit out of the second half.

I want to give this more stars. I miss John boy and billy.

Your taek is better

It’s like racing...you can’t win in the first corner, but you sure can lose.

Which is why it makes sense for francona to go to the pen because his staff is deeper and not Farrell because he has his true ace this season on the mound. Ride the horse that got you there, you ended up with a loss and burned some pitchers that could be important in game 2 or 3. Game 1 is the least important game in…

I felt like Farrell was chasing francona with the pitching change. Bringing in Pomerantz didn’t bite him in the ass, but it’s not like procello wasn’t getting anyone one. He gave up 3 hr and 6 hits total. Sure Bauers numbers were strikingly similar, but the Red Sox don’t have an Andrew Miller in the pen.

This guy gets it.

I’m trolling for the Trumpkkns. I hear they like online polls.

I try to help.

Right, and Cleveland capitalized on those mistakes. But had the Sox scored the runs that procello got as a cushion all year, they outscore Cleveland.

But weren’t the Red Sox better on the road than at home this year?

I’d put this one game more on the Indians capitalizing on Procello’s mistakes rather than a bad performance by Procello. And coupled with Francona’s management of the bullpen and looking beyond just 1 game.

That’s exactly what I’m going for.

Fair enough

Watching it at work last night with a full bar here in Boston. When Miller came in everyone started talking about how much they miss Francona.

Good.

But I don’t want to be a pirate?

We stole a case of beer (probably molson because Canada) from a convenience store in 2000ish right outside Niagara Falls. We had to return the beer and write an apology letter.

Yeah, I dated that girl too.
