BF_in_Indiana Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 On ESPN Classic they are showing an hour and a half Boston Red Sox call in show. This is almost as pitiful as their Patriot love fest. What a laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasper13 Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 If I didn't hate the Red Sox & Patriots, I'd probably have something to say. Otherwise, I hope the Patriots & Red Sox lose. ESPN "Classic" is not so classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBob2232 Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 This buildup for the redsox is exactly what they dont need. Let it be! Make the pressure of winning so unbearable they cant do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BF_in_Indiana Posted October 23, 2004 Author Share Posted October 23, 2004 I don't have a problem with the Sox, but dedicating a whole show on just the Sox??? There are two teams in the World Series, someone just forgot to tell ESPN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILLS4LIFE Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 I would NEVER root for the Sox,even if they wouldve played against Houston. The Yanks need serious help in pitching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfladave Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 Boston fans think they've already won the World Series by beating the $Yankees. I am going to go out on a limb here...the Red Sox will surely lose THE World Series. Why? Well because they're cursed of course. Boston fan go climb a tree will ya.

wwovince Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 Stop being so Bitter or should I call it jealousy. Give it a break already. Its a big deal for the red sox thats the reason. I dont see the red sox losing in 5 though lol at that. If the Red Sox lose it will be in 6 or 7. But i must say and this si funny....... If we do lose we lose to the best team in baseball right most wins?? But the Spankees beat us last year and they lose to the Marlins? LMAO Correct me if im wrong SPANKEE FANS!!! LOL RED SOX are the YANKEES DADDY!!!!!! BABY!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kegtapr Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 It's all about ratings. People have been talking about Boston for years, they'll watch a hour and a half show show about them. Outside of Card fans and now displaced Yankee fans wanting the Sox to fail, who gives a crap about a team from St. Louis? It's the way the business works, suck it up and quit bitchin. Worry about the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 more whining? for crying out loud, your favorite team (how would i know that) is in the world series and all you can do is cry about ESPN doing something that it typical of broadcasters -- airing a program that has a large audience. wow. they must be fugging crazy. sometimes i get so sick and tired of the "poor us" and "why don't we get any respect" mentality. bills' fans do it all the time. face it -- the red sox are a much bigger story than the cardinals. casual fans are much more likely to pay attention to a story about the red sox history of ineptitude. i remember your whining during the pacers / pistons series as well. grow up, dude.

BF_in_Indiana Posted October 23, 2004 Author Share Posted October 23, 2004 EBall first of all, I understand the Red Sox are a big story, however, if you are going to do an hour and a half call in show about the Series, why not do it about BOTH teams??? The ratings are still going to be good. They are reairing the same show up until game time tonight. Outside of St. Louis who cares??? There are Cardinals fans ALL OVER THE WORLD in case you didn't know. The Cardinals have a similar rabid fan base like the Red Sox do. Game 7 Thursday night drew very high ratings I would guess in large part because of our nationwide fan base. I just think that since this is the 100th World Series, they would be paying a little more attention to the team with the best record in baseball??? I guess I shouldn't expect anything less after the way the LCS was treated though. The media is a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RkFast Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 IM really not following how doing a series on the Sox such such a big deal. Im sure STL is getting plenty of attention before they get their asses handed to them tonight. Honestly, BF...Matt Morris and Jason Marquis against this lineup? And in the pen? The Sox ate up Rivera. And even YOU have to admit......Izzy is closer to Geraldo Rivera than he is to Mariano Rivera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BF_in_Indiana Posted October 23, 2004 Author Share Posted October 23, 2004 Why is everyone so sure we are going to get hammered? I think Houston had a tougher lineup then Boston. It's close but Houston was amazing at the plate. I mean look at this. Biggio Beltran Bagwell Berkman Kent Ensberg Every one of those guys is capable of hitting 25-30 homers outside of Biggio who does many other things well. The Red Sox lineup is great, but I think we can shut them down. The Sox pitching is shaky right now too. Wakefield? Lowe? Even Schilling is a question mark. Combine that with the power in OUR lineup and you may have trouble in Red Sox nation as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Like A Mofo Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 Whats ESPN? Oh yeah, that station that claims to be a national network but clearly has their own loves and agendas....wasnt ESPN a all sports station at one time? In like 1993?
