i'm happy with it

that was sarcasm, right?

saunders is lefty too

fields as dh is appropriate

I love having a sub-.200 DH

Other than that, it’s tasty.

At least he can defend.

A DH is actually supposed to hit. That’s all he does. No chance to redeem himself in the field.

I think BA has acquitted himself fairly well in the #2 spot.

really? eh, in the end, its minor

aj needs the rest, so does jr. i would be pissed if JO was in line-up. i’m picking fields to step up today

As long as he swings the fucking bat.

they had a 15 inning match last night

thome can’t play today, do you want dewayne hey hey hey wise to dh, or someone who historically has done alright against lefties and will bat against a struggling lefty today?

by onlysoxfaninboston on Sep 7, 2008 12:44 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

i think he wants him to swing the fucking bat.

which is think is a reasonable request.

booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo(Q!)geois

by larry on Sep 7, 2008 12:45 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

fields. and tell him to swing the fucking bat.

booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo(Q!)geois

by larry on Sep 7, 2008 12:47 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Yeah, that's the point...

I like Fields in the lineup against a lefty. But please stop taking backwards K’s.

by SSH2005 on Sep 7, 2008 12:48 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

saunders doesn't walk people. it's going to be tough for him to "step up today" if he's not swinging.

fields’ line v saunders: 2b, 2 Ks. if he does that today, i’ll be fine with it.

Anderson's beastly small sample size .600 SLG in 65 AB's against lefties...

is probably why he is there. All of Anderson’s homers (7) have been against lefties.

Saunders at least was decent last outing.

Danks has yet to right the ship, but he’s home. Tough call. Above my pay grade.

got some luck but true.

i call this one an actual toss-up. pessimistic about danks but saunders doesn’t look much better. maybe i lean towards saunders but that’s probably because i didn’t actually watch his outings.

eh, each their own i suppose

they are one of my favorite bands

by onlysoxfaninboston on Sep 7, 2008 12:54 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

too old

I like bands like my women, young and lithe. I can’t listen to bands with members older than me. I’m listening to Ladytron at the moment – you heard of them?

Sox fan from England, marching on together

by hoodlight on Sep 7, 2008 12:57 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

yeah dude

i’ve seen them a couple times, and i like them a lot. its different for me, i don’t know, its difficult for me to get into newer bands. i like the older bands who don’t have to grind anymore, that make art for the sake of making it. the recent artists i like are MIA, Matmos, and grizzly bear

by onlysoxfaninboston on Sep 7, 2008 1:07 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

0-3 for me, osfib. All I can say is "Who dat?"

How “old” are the older bands? Are you going all the way back to the mid-’90’s? Or the Stone Age of the ’70’s-’80’s?

I didn't say the '60's.

So what’s an older band you like that is not interested in $ any more? Radiohead?

those guys are so loaded, they live to rock, haha

by onlysoxfaninboston on Sep 7, 2008 1:25 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

and i hope i didn't sound like the young idealistic dweeb there

i think most artists would like to make art as a full time occupation, but that’s not possible. most of the older bands i like probably have full time gigs on the side but still make music on their own terms

by onlysoxfaninboston on Sep 7, 2008 1:26 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

never liked Radiohead

Am I wrong for enjoying this news?
Tom Brady hurt his left knee Sunday, and was forced to leave Sunday’s game. His return is questionable.
Brady’s leg bent backwards awkwardly as he was hit while throwing. He was able to walk off the field and down a flight of stairs to the locker room, which is a decent sign, but the hit was ugly. Randy Moss, incidentally, lost a fumble without being hit on the play. Matt Cassel is in the game.

Sick of Boston fans.

Danks sucking = 4-5 more games. I agree.
