They've been doing so great, they deserve their own topic.
They just won 9-2!
Spread the Sox love everyone.
Yay!!! I'm so glad Bronson got the win tonight. He usually ends up getting a raw deal...either pitching a great game and not getting any run support, or what have you. Good going boys!!!
Oh, since we've got a Red Sox topic going, did anyone happen to watch the game on ESPN2 last night??? Manny and Johnny Damon were cuddling in the dugout. It was hi-freaking-larious!!!
I know!! How freaking cute was that? Manny's always giving people hugs.
I love Mark Bellhorn. I was so pissed when the inning ended with him on 3rd and he never got to score a run.

so psyched that bronson got the win... he's doing great this year!
I agree... I think alot of people were kind of weary of him at the beginging, but he's really improved and found his niche, if you will.
I enjoy Bronson! His hair's a little on the big side this year! Gotta love him.
Bellhorn's okay. I don't dislike him as much as some people seem to. He always comes up w/ something big when you least expect it/really need it, but there's something funky about him. He always looks like he's stoned or something.
LOL!!
There was an article about him in the Globe last season about how some people find him a little odd... I think he's cute!
As clean-cut as a ball player was on another team, once you join the Sox, you stop shaving, stop getting haircuts, occationally forget to tuck in your jersey, and no one seems to mind, because Boston's a very laid-back place.
That's what I love about them...their scruffiness and their comfort level w/ each other. I mean what other team in the league is open enough to have all their manhugs and even cuddling?!?!?

Every team seems to be fine with public butt-slapping.
Butt-slapping kind of goes w/ the territory, but manhugs and cuddling in the dugout?? I don't think every team's quite up for that!
butt-slapping is just odd... manhugs and cuddling are cute
Do you have a picture of this cuddle, mabel?

I have to go to bed, so I'll leave you with this picture, and revive the thread after tomarrow night's game. :)
Awww, thanks for that Abba!

Ah, classic Red Sox neuroses. Even in victory, they define themselves against the Yankees. Do you even remember who you beat for the actual championship? Starts with a C...plays in a city named after a Catholic...
is it wrong on many levels to advocate for the team charter to go down in a swamp and have giant dragonflies pluck johnny damon's beard?
Oh, come on plum, you've gotta admit that A-Rod was pretty sketchy right there! "Ummm, I'm not allowed to swat at the player trying to tag me out?...Huh? I've only been playing baseball all my life, but I seriously can't comprehend that I did anything even remotely questionable." I'd say that was a bit of a low point.
Yeah, I remember all about St.Louis...and I certainly remember them kicking our asses recently.

We have a thread for this, other than the purse.

Now, I could bring up your own personal head case Manny Ramirez and his very liberal interpretation of what constitutes a brushback...but that would be petty. :P
Oh, I'll be the first to admit he was looking to pick a fight w/ that. I remember sitting in my dorm watching that and yelling at the TV. I love me a good brawl, but it's gotta be totally spontaneous.
I lvoe3 the red sox they are the best and johnny damon is the kewlist

Oh, that's just not nice. There is a thread with Yankees in the title, you know. :)
Yeah, not nice, Thenardier!!!
Personally, I'm a Bill Meuller/Tim Wakefield girl. Johnny's having a very good season, but he kind of irks me.
