Use the comments to this entry as your own personal Gameday open thread. These open threads have been fun so far – so I’ll keep ‘em up as long as y’all are interested in having them.






Here’s my previous cubicle Sox shrine:

That was a year ago, and it’s grown since then. =)
Whoa, is it just me, or does David Pauley look REALLY different from 2 years ago?
Youk is awesome!
RED SOX FIREFOX SKIN? I must have a link, please!
And I love the shrine, joyosity!
“A worldchampionship ring…one more thing their third baseman can’t slap away”
love it.
Joyosity, that is QUITE the cubicle display! :-)
BTW, is it okay if I go find some plastic bubbles to put the healthy guys on the team in? I mean if this flu is this horrible, then I think that we should probably quarantine the clubhouse or something.
Good evening, all.
Kids, hubby, and dog are fed, homework is done and checked, clothes are ironed for tomorrow, papers are corrected, plans for tomorrow are completed. Now…it is mommy time!!!!
Thanks! And I, too, would love a Red Sox Firefox skin. =)
Totally unrelated question, but has anyone here ever been to a game at Camden Yards? I’m going to the 4 games boston is playing there in May and I’m curious if it’s as nice as everyone says it is??
BTW, question, what was up with the DP playing catcher, that everyone was talking about?
Ok I missed the game yesterday. Remy wasn’t there? What happend?
Good work, Julio!
And Lugo continues his hitting prowess. Is it 5 straight hits now?
Yes, 5. And Ian will have to refresh my memory if the hitting streak is now 7 or 8 games.
I can’t believe it, it’s Jim Rice
Yep – Camden is lovely. Went there for a 3-game Sox-O’s series last September. I have a page of my photos here:

bethie – camden yards is gorgeous. totally a great place to catch the sox; most of massachusetts will be there with you! ;D
I went to Camden a couple of years ago. I really enjoyed it, and the food was awesome. The most incredible thing, though, was the abundance of parking right next to the park for $5! (It might be more now.)
8 games
Thanks, Ian. Lookin’ good, little guy!
WOW. I just nearly choked on my dinner laughing at the latest FJM.
BEST QUOTE EVER from Dusty Baker:
Fortunately for him, Reds manager Dusty Baker seems to be more patient with Encarnacion than previous manager Jerry Narron. “I’m happy for him because this guy bleeds internally, big-time,” Baker said.

Oh man I need to start breathing again.
girlfriend’s airplane lands at midnight tonight. beckett was supposed to keep me company until then ;D but pauley and you cats will have to do. thanks, in advance!
manny del is sick, too? wah. poor sox! flu of DOOM.
Cool! Thanks guys. I have a co worker that is an O’s fan, and he says it’s really nice there. Just wanted to get verification from some sox fans. LOL. I just ordered my last set of tickets. And on May 3rd I’ll be going to my first game ever at Fenway. So excited I can’t stand it!!
Speaking of food at Camden, my friend got our seats for Sunday, we are in the all you can eat section right above the bullpen., SWEET!!! LOL
Great pics TG! And you got to see Beckett pitch there. Color me jealous. :) Let’s hope I get the same luck.
My friend went to a Sox game in Camden and saw Beckett pitch. I’m still jealous that she saw him pitch.
WTF?? Angels up 3-1. Booo.
Bethie, you took the words right out of my mouth. I got sidetracked with something else for a few minutes, and look what happened! WTF sums it up exactly.
Best (err… funniest) part about the game? On Saturday night, Dice-K pitched, and in the break of the 8th inning, they started playing “Sweet Caroline” over the PA, and all the Sox fans were singing along to the first couple of lines… and then there was a giant sound effect of a needle scratching across a record, the song stopped, and they played “Thank God I’m A Country Boy.” It was awesomely mean.
Also, I paid $10 extra for an all-you-can-drink beer party in the park for the hour before the game started. Seriously. Best $10 I ever spent.
No Tek makes me a seriously unhappy panda.
I’m hoping to go to the Sox-O’s game at Camden on 6/1 myself – I’m a MA girl but transplanted myself here last year for the better job market in DC. I’m only 45 minutes from Baltimore and have a friend here who’s also a diehard Sox fan so I think we’ll be hitting that game together.
Okay, Weaver needs a strain of the flu. LOL
Awesomely mean, TG. Funny, but true. Very mean. HA And all you can drink beer party?? Hmmm….4 days at Camden….10 times 4……$40??? I think I can manage…where can I find this?? :)
OK…where’s the link for the Firefox Sox skin?!?!? I soooooo need that.
joyosity–love the shrine.
We should have a betting pool of who’ll get sick next. Whose your vote for? I’m gonna say Pedroia
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4357
I thought Pedroia already had the bug..I vote for Sean Casey..who, I might add, is growing on me more and more every day!!!
what the hell?
-hi everyone.
Oh double shit.
Looks like it’s gonna be another come from behind one tonight.
Aww sheeeeeit. What is going ON here?
more zeppelin at fenway. SWEET
Those are always the best ones, Bethie!
I agree they are the best. Just nerve wracking getting there. *wearing a hole in the floor pacing*
(wishing there was audio available…) I may have to spring for the Gameday audio package. Money is tight but I may just HAVE to.
ecl, I have this. You get GameDay Audio plus a few other things, but it’s the same price as buying GD Audio by itself.
Is that $14.95 total or per month?
Total. Just pay the $15 once, and you have it for the whole year! You can listen to the home station or the away station, and sometimes you can even listen in Spanish!
total ecl
that was sweet showing the band in the pen
Well, the band is fired up tonight. :)
K, never thought I would say this…but…
Lugo…YOU DA MAN!!
Hmmmmm….this looks like a great deal! Maybe this can be an Earth Day present to myself…
Nice to hear that the band is back!
