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.
Just stopping in to say hi. Not sure if I’ll get back. It’s radio show night.
After the thriller at Fenway last night, I’m spending tonight nice and warm and dry at home.
Hello everybody. How are you all today?
Hey all!
heyy. Jacoby and Drew are out of the lineup again. And Dustin pulled his shoulder out of his socket last night making that catch, but hes fine now and playing.

Red Sox
1. Dustin Pedroia, 2B
2. Kevin Youkilis, 1B
3. David Ortiz, DH
4. Manny Ramirez, LF
5. Mike Lowell, 3B

(Ooh, sweet! PawSox won! Niiiice.)
Also, nice to see Sunbeam in the lineup…I’m worried about J.D., of course, but Brandon’s here for a reason!
Yea, and in the blog that i read, they were talking abt how theo must be happy that he sent Corey down and not Moss! we’d be screwed! lol.
They also said that Jacoby groin is still a little sore, but hes fine. But they dont wanna push it. But i hope he plays tomorrow, cus i’ll be at the game ;)
I saw Tito quoted as calling him “Mossy.” Hadn’t heard that before. I like it.
Yea, i saw that too! haha.
and whats up with all the empty seats behind homeplate? i believe that if ur paying that much money for a game, you should be there for the ENTIRE game! lol.
DICE KK!!
Dice-K: 1-2-3. Nice!
Where is everyone? =(
(whistles) Good job, Daisuke!
They could be running late, Lindsay. But regardless, they shouldn’t be.
When we do the DICE K thing, so we keep the original K and then at the K’s for each strikeout? or does hte original K count as a strikeout? lol. like right now, would it be DICE K or DICE KK??
Yea, only 8 online right now. Usually at this times there like 25.
Hi all! Just walked in the door — first thing I did was get my audio/Gameday running. Now it’s time to unload two weeks worth of groceries and grab some dinner. Will be here off and on this evening…
Youk and Papi..lets do this!
Hot Dustin on Dustin action, everyone!
Yea, i’m abt to do some accounting homework. so i’ll be back in a little bit. =P
…or not. Okay.
I was thinking that too 1863. Dustin vs. Dustin. lol. but our Dustin lost the battle =(
Youk did NOT like that call.
Dustin (pitcher) shaved off his awkward looking sideburns! thank god! haha.
Grrr! i thought it would drop! =/
OH MY. Did everyone catch that from Youk in the dugout?
fc– i did!!! haha.
that was fantastic, Youk with the loud “fuck” in the dugout
LOL audible f-word
hi everyone……i too have work to do tonight…writing a paper on psychosocial development (i almost can’t contain my excitement)
…I need NESN, if only for moments like that…
YOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUKKKKKKK
Youk: That was a message for Trish. ;)
(briefly messes around with a fictional person’s Livejournal layout) …yeah, I know I’m a loser…
Nice to have Youk back over at first, isn’t it?
Do any of you know why Trish hates Youk so much??
Yay, Manny!
Lindsay, I was wondering the same thing. She seems to really, really despise him.
Pedey! Easy with that shoulder, buddy!
…Dustin is amazing. We need to clone him.
Sounds like that must have been quite a catch.
Steph, at this rate we should clone him for spare parts.
Dustin is amazing, like Rem Dawg said – if theres a ball he can catch, he’ll make sure that he catches it.
I would say “except make the clone a little taller” but i like the fact that Pleats is short. =P lol.
I love that Dustin’s short. It makes me feel better about being short (I’m 5′2″).
oh pleats, he’s just awesome!
Am i the only one that loved Rios’ little mohawk? Its gone now, but he had it during the last series- and its so cute! haha.
Yeah, it definately says not for public use, but w/e- its the only 1 i could find…lol
Hey guys, just turned on the game – did I miss anything exciting?
A couple of good defensive plays from Youk and Dustin, but otherwise not too much…
Jessi, you missed what may turn out to be the last visual/audio from the dugout that NESN ever broadcasts without a ‘Beckett delay.’
