With Price and E. Jackson both available,

Maddon needs to gauge NOW (i.e., the top of the 4th) whether Shields can settle down and if the answer is no pull the trigger proactively.

If I'm managing,

I’d have Price up loosening up to start this inning. I’d still hope to get 5+ out of Shields, but if he struggles again in the 4th you need to be ready to cut your losses before it’s 5-1.

Not so much.

She purchased a picture at the craft fair. More like a sign, really. Anyway, she bought this sign, decided it really didn’t go with the room… then decided to paint the room RIGHT THEN. She had MAYBE three cups of paint leftover from when she painted something else, so she uses that.

“Since you’re here, can you reach the top for me?”

I then get roped in to painting everything she can’t reach. She’s like, 5’0" with her beehive hair, so I ended up doing most of the work. Not only that, but we run out of paint after I half a wall.

It would have to be up in the zone a little

It does not stretch to the ground like it used to.

I could use performance enhancing viagra though

Varitek IS a power hitter

He just had a terrible season. He’s still a power hitter.

I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal

Considering how poorly Shields pitched…3 runs isn’t so bad. Time for the offense to pick him up

by ilovegregsmith on Oct 18, 2008 7:27 PM PDT reply actions  

Not bad at all

That first inning could have ended much worse.

ok, I'm tired of this.

Who wants to come over to my house and help me pull my brother away from the TV so I can watch the game? I’m tired of the intermittent screams of pain.

at the moment, it appears that he glued his face to the screen.

I’m hoping just pulling him off will do the trick.

They must want Game 7

I saw a stat the other night where the team down 3-1, if they get to game 7, they win most of the time.

Fuck the Sox.

They must be denied tonite

Although this isn't a choke on the Sux part

I’d like to throw this name out there

Okay, there is a new thread open.

But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.
