So... How about them Red Sox?

**crashnburn'd** · 10-06-2005, 06:53 AM

Normally there's some Masshole thread about the Red Sox or Patriots, but mysteriously there's nothing today.

So, how are they doing?

They're preparing for the offseason, same thing it appears the Red Sox are doing.

Their comebacks appear to be quite the opposite of your ability to take a joke.

edit - Just a sidenote, but I did not notice the Buckner thread. Oh well, the more threads about the Red Sox, the better, IMHO.

That would be deficeit, I believe.

Not until Saturday night.

Astros win it all (best starting rotation in baseball)!

Since the spelling police haven't responded to this emergency call yet I'll help out. I believe the word you are looking for is deficit.

Regarding the red sox all I can say is Fuck Me!

But it ain't over yet.

is that defeceit is a newly Webster's-adapted hybrid combining the meanings of defecit and deceit, so don't jump all Conan The Grammarian until you bone up. And dammit he's right about the 03 thing.

99 vs the tribe as well.

don't forget tying for the most come-from-behind wins in the majors this season.

it's a 5 game series, not a 7 game.

fighting in the desert is very different from fighting in canopy jungle.

**biggins** · 10-06-2005, 08:08 AM

Oy.

This may be the first of many threads about what shmucks we are here in Beaner.

Hopefully it'll just prove to be fodder for more shit-talking later.

('99 v. Cleveland, '99 v. Cleveland, '04 v. NYY, '04 v. NYY, please...)

I only hope Graffanino doesn't have kids in local schools [Buckner/]

Meh! Hybrid dictionaries are the twin tip skis of grammar (continuing an earlier thought).

BTW -- Sadly, the only bone-up that is germaine to this thread is the one Iguchi gave the Red Sox
