The Official 2005 Boston Red Sox Thread

Cashman is an idiot if he signs Leiter. A ballclub of 40+ year olds will be lucky if they can finish the season.

The Yanks better have a wheel chair ramp to the pitchers mound.

Nothin is sweeter than seeing dissillusioned yankee fans.... :lol:

[Spacey]

I don\'t understand how we are disilluisioned? We know that state of our crappy ball club.

dis·il·lu·sioned, dis·il·lu·sion·ing, dis·il·lu·sions
To free or deprive of illusion.

The act of disenchanting.
The condition or fact of being disenchanted.


you are "deprived of the illusion" that u have a good ballclub

[SlimPickens]

I\'ll just say this much...i was reluctant to post in this thread because it was started by a yankee fan.

I love militant red sox fans.  they make me laugh.

[Whathefunk]

Thus the reason i was reluctant to start posting in a yankee/redsox thread.....add baseball to the religion/politics category, i feel no need to argue with my fellow breakfast junkies, i do that plenty with yankee fans that don\'t share my same musical taste.

pretty sure one Major League Bitching thread is enough.

re: yanks & leiter - umm, they had no one to start tomorrow, and it didn\'t really cost them anything to get leiter. is he gonna go out and throw a gem? not likely.. but it\'s GOT to be better than mr. redding\'s start yesterday...

Illusion -
   1. An erroneous perception of reality.
   2. An erroneous concept or belief.

I still don\'t think disillusioned works here. We are not deprived of a false concept of reality. We know and understand and accept the state of the teams being. Besides, we are only 1 1/2 games back and Baltimore can take the top spot again with a win tonight. Better watch out

good job on merging the two.

Leiter = not the answer

if he wants to live, he will throw a gem. All he has to do is keep the Yankees in the game. I am pretty sure a parapalegic could have farted a ball out of his ass better then Redding pitched. I know girls who could have lasted more innings.

lol...i was alluding to the rampant false belief that the yankees were going to be any good this season.  But beleive me as a kid raised on the sox i will always watch out for your yanks... but baltimore... excuse me while i laugh

[Spacey]

I will join you in laughing at Baltimore. Why do they have to go and ruin tradition by being in the top 2 teams. Don\'t they know that the 1st and 2nd place belong to the Red Sox and Yankees?

perhaps, we are disillusioned...  :lol:

I think even Jeff Nelson would be better than Redding.

[Spacey]

anyone on this board would have been better suited to pitch...

[delfunk1]

On a positive note, at least we wont have to listen to Joe Buck an Tim McCarver do the games tomorrow.  They are terrible.
