I sure hope I get this game. Fox is doing interviews from Fenway, but the show description is the Dodgers/Angels.
I already miss DO & Remy.
I have my fingers crossed for you!
I’m right there with you Jules. If they go to Dodgers\Angels, I will miss all 3 games this weekend. And I will be bummed.
BTW, Hi everyone!
Jules, for your sake I hope the show description is incorrect! My show description says Sox/Brewers, but then again, I’m on the East Coast.
Almost time to grab a snack and relax in front of my TV. Woohoo — live Sox! :-D
I’m here. I’m here. Just hoping my blog stays up. BTW, Wordpress sucks.
Bethie, there’s no way you’ll get switched to a Cali game, seeing as how you’re practically down the street from me.
Ian, WTH happened last night with your blog? I was worried that you had done away with it, but of course that made no sense.
Long story short is that wordpress sucks.
Actually after staying up all night and figuring out the problem and fixing the database last night, the blog was working just fine this morning until it crashed again. So we were going to shut it down for the weekend and then start fresh but after talking with the tech people, they told me what to get rid of that’s causing the problems.
Well, that’s a relief. I was going to be pissed if they showed me something other than red sox. :)
and in time we are going to switch blogging platforms to the one that our gracious host Texy uses since she never has problems like I do with wordpress.
Okay…heading for the other room. Will check back after awhile. Play ball! :-)
That sounds like a great idea, Ian.
I’m watching Keeping UpWith the Kardashians. LOL.
Running to get lunch (yes, I’m eating late) and beer. Will be back soon!
bad planning Texy, you should have gone before the game like I did. :D
Can someone have a beer for me? :)
Hi all. I’m loving this baseball- on- my- TV thing today. Gameday rots.
Sunny in Beantown, eh? Yeah. It’s miserable here. I’m hoping the PawSox don’t get cancelled tonight.
The graphics across the top of the screen are pissing me off already. That blue line is so distracting.
Good job Tek. Wow.
How come we get stuck with McCarver
Went to a game last night that didn’t happen.
Was up past 4 AM, woke up at 11:00 this morning.
I’m watching a game before getting ready to go to a game.
Hoping my favorite player isn’t in tonight so he’ll be in tomorrow when I have better seats.
Up is down and down is up.
It’s beautiful here on the shores of CT. 68 and sunny with a breeze coming off the water.
Looooovely play, Tek, Quick feet.
Great throw out at second by Tek! Lord I believe we have the best catcher in the world.
fc the traffic car and foot should be fun around the Fens tonight.
i don’t believe it. It’s Jim Fucking Rice and he’s doing the lineups.
fc, I’ve felt like that for the last week or so. The world’s upside down, not only related to baseball.
It’s gorgeous here. I’ve been stuck inside all day and of course I’m going to be tied to the TV for the next, oh, eight hours. Good times.
By the way if you hadn’t heard, Coco is out with vertigo but may play tonight and Okajima has been shutdown for a few days with a sore wrist.
How long until we get D.O. and RemDawg back. I can’t take McCarver anymore.
Thanks, Ian. Vertigo. Woof. That’s such an awful feeling. I feel for him.
Am I the only one who thinks Ken Rosenthal is a massive tool?
I hate watching the Red Sox on channels other than NESN.
No Jane, you’re not the only one. He’s good with the rumors he gets but he lost any sense of my affections (not in a gay way) when he broke the AROD news last year during the World Series.
Ouch!
Yeeeow.
That would be a negative Jane. I think we all agree he is a massive tool.
As is McCarver.
Ian, that was so cheesy. I agree with you guys.
I think ECL and I are the only ones who are actually glad that the game’s not on NESN…
Youuuk!
And I hate the announcers. But for the sake of those out of NESN territory I’m glad it’s on national TV. :)
fc i’m sure you saw my answer to your question on my blog earlier but i just thought of something else.
You’ll probably get to see Kapler tonight in the 2nd game.
I am too nj. Being on FOX allows me to watch at work. :)
I should be happy for y’all but I’m about a few minutes away from watching this on my dvr on my computer and syching it up to the radio broadcast.
Liza, I can’t stand them either, but (for me) it’s better than nothing. Sometimes, I end up muting my TV and just watching the game without sound.
Yup. You have to take what you can get.
Keep walking in those runs, Suppan!
Britt your better off that way.
Final Score:
Mets-7, Yanks-4
I’ll take it.
We actually don’t need to worry about how hte Yankees are doing right now (which is hte oddest thing in the world right now), we actually need to worry about what the Rays do.
Back. Got beer AND Jameson (thank you, kind roommate- who knows I have no spare money and so kindly donated the alcohol to my tummy).
Sox have a 1-run lead.
I have alcohol and food.
This is turning out to be a great day.
But thanks for the score update because after reading my response, I sounded snooty. :D
Yup Ian – got your answer, thanks.
I feel like such a spolied brat with my near-whine, since I’ll be at both games!
Anyhoo here’s hoping Youk does his usual play-his-ass-off job this afternoon and gets a rest tonight so I can see him up-close-and-personal tomorrow.
In any case seeing Kapler would be great!
Hey – a run! Thanks Suppan!
