Just clicked on the link in the sidebar from the main page… is it true that, belatedly, we’re up to:

Paps – 12
Beckett – 14

Huh!

team pap definitely, although that was probably one of the hardest decisions i have had to make recently. Also, I vote yes to the shirts! Start making them!!!

I’m going to have to say Papelbon. Before I saw the video where he talked about the Sports Illustrated cover, I loved both equally. But he’s just hilarious. Perhaps “tan lines” should be added up there after “let the bodies hit the floor”

Cinco-Ocho all the way. Always loved him…the manic stare before he throws always makes me smirk smugly – “Yeah, that’s right people…we’ve got Pap. You don’t.” Win.

I have a Papelbon T-shirt. Love the stare and look over the shoulder before a pitch.

His number is the year I was born. Boy am I old.

if you’re talking about which player do we like better, i couldn’t pick. in terms of t-shirt design and / or merch, i’m with team beckett. jonathan gets a lot of fan stuff, t-shirts, etc., hardly anyone wears anything for josh.

You don’t want to be on the side of a Texas redneck do you. Cinco Ocho is where it’s at.

fine then. another vote for papyboo.

i walked in the house just now and grumbling, turned on the tv.
“are the red sox still on?”
“yes”
*turns on tv*
“oh, good, i get to watch papelbon”
boyfriend: “what the FUCK?”
“huh?”
“you are now following the CLOSERS for AL teams?”
“um… yeah.”

GO SOX

Hey, Kristin, could you snap a few of Ellsbury? Forget Pap and Beckett, he’s GORGEOUS! Thanks lots :)

By: Texy

Texy — Fri, 14 Sep 2007 20:06:41 +0000

Kristin- You know I am jealous. I have missed exactly ONE Beckett start since the beginning of August, and it nearly killed me. I am hoping that since I was not good luck for him against the Yanks in NYC, perhaps you will be good luck for him in Boston.

In a reversal of fortunes, Beckett pulls ahead for the first time!

Beckett: 7
Papelbon: 6

PS: Texas Gal, I will be at the game on Saturday by a very happy coincidence. I think I’m going to try my hand at some Beckett bullpen stalking!

I’m coming in a little late on this (buying a house and trying to move in will do that to you). But obviously, you know where I stand. Beckett all the way.

I do find Papelbon entertaining, but he’s just not as sexy, no matter how many people he gets to call Josh ugly on Friendly’s Scoop.

That a tough one, cause both amuse me to no end. BUT since at the end of the day I am a Florida girl, Beckett wins this round if only because of the game six in 03.

One of t-shirts must have one team on the front and one team on the back for those who can’t decide.

This is cruel; it’s almost akin to asking me which tooth I’d rather have drilled.

If I must pick, I guess I’d go with Beckett, because I find I enjoy watching him pitch a bit more. He doesn’t have the inherent drama of the ninth inning to draw off of, yet he somehow makes every pitch feel just as critical, and just as interesting. I think his curveball may have some kind of hypnotic power of its own too, and it doesn’t even have a nickname.

Personality-wise, however, I abstain. They both amuse me to no end, though each for entirely different reasons.

That is easily the most awesome thing I’ve heard this week. Papyboo & Beckett would be happy to know they served you well- and I am proud to know that my indoctrination of you into the Papyboo-Beckett fold has reaped some positive rewards.

But you do know that in your heart of hearts, you have a favorite. Everyone does… even Mets fans.
