*crickets* we're in a penant race right? 

Post#1 » by Dirty Water » Fri Sep 19, 2008 3:32 am

There is zero activity on this board. Maybe it's not a popular board. But we are the defending world champs and on our way to defend that title. We have a firm hold of the wild card with still a good chance to take the division. What's the matter? Everyone in life support over the Tom Brady injury? I have the solution: Watch the Red Sox. Time to whip the Blue Jays this weekend.

Winning doesn't get old.

Maybe you guys are right. This team doesn't seem to have an edge. The 2004 team had edge. 2007 won the division for first time in over a decade.... this team...? Seems like Pedroia and Youkilis are the only ones who seem to care out there.

They've had the playoffs wrapped up for a while now. It's kinda boring until the playoffs start. This is the best team in baseball; I don't know about any edge.

It is nuts how dead this board is. I shudder at the thought of what the Bruins one is like.
But yeah, It's kinda the calm before the storm for me. Especially after dropping our last chance at the division Wednesday.

Agreed. I love baseball, but I just can't get excited over a september game. It is the most boring month in baseball, in my opinion.

Unless you are a Rays fan.
Basketball is driven by three principles:

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability

Yep, September is the pinnacle for you guys. October, well, not so much. It was a good ride, though.

If "it" is losing in 6 to the Sox in the ALCS, don't worry they'll "get it".

Return to Boston Red Sox
