    Ian, you’re right about the viva ads.

    LOVE *turning* double plays. Good D, guys!

  2. 2008 July 3 at 8:08 pm

    That was a pretty play.

    I HATE the Viagra ads.

  4. 2008 July 3 at 8:08 pm

    A GIDP in addition to an error? Is Jeter taking lessons from E6?

  5. 2008 July 3 at 8:09 pm

    I also hate the ED ads with the couple in separate outdoor bathtubs. Stupidest scenario ever.

    As much as I don’t like the viagra ads or the ED ads, they helped me in pharmacology last semester! haha the only time those drug ads will ever go to good use

    ecl- Those are so random. How do they get the bathtubs out there?

  8. 2008 July 3 at 8:11 pm

    Hm, what’s up with Pedey’s eye?

    hey everyone…so i’ve been MIA for about a month…my daughter had her tonsils and adenoids out….the recovery process did not go as smoothly as we hoped….she’s finally feeling better…and we’re hitting the ball…life is good at the moment

    Coco! Tek needs to start hitting.

    ecl, I think he got banged up turning the dp.

  11. 2008 July 3 at 8:17 pm

    Erin i’m guessing a stagehand brought them out there before they filled them up to shoot the commercial :))

    kristina, I’m sorry to hear your daughter had some challenges, glad she’s feeling better.

    Gotta run!

    thanks jules…..at least Tek’s making progress…he walked, scored a run and advanced a runner….seems like more then he’s done in a long time….now all we need is a hit

  14. 2008 July 3 at 8:19 pm

    Jules, that was fc who asked about Pedey…I was MIA for a few minutes to gobble dinner.

    Erin, the ads are not only random but unrealistic. A jacuzzi type arrangement for the couple, maybe. But two separate tubs? I guess the advertisers are giving it the prissy “I Love Lucy” treatment a la 1950s, where the couple slept in separate beds.

    Oh my god. Our bats have come out of their coma. :)

  16. 2008 July 3 at 8:24 pm

    Bethie must have just arrived! :-) You feeling better?

    yeah LesterKKKKK

  18. 2008 July 3 at 8:24 pm

    Jon is looking awfully sharp.

    DREWWWWWW

    Yeah, I just got here, had a pre game/first inning nap. Didn’t really have a choice on that one. But, I feel a little bit better. Thanks for asking!

    Nice to see us scoring runs and Jon pitching so well. Brings a smile.

    I hate Damon.

    But at least the Sox got another run!

  24. 2008 July 3 at 8:31 pm

    I’m so tired right now that if I were to take a nap I wouldn’t wake up until tomorrow morning.

    Glad you’re feeling better!

    As much as I love this, now why couldn’t they have done this in Tampa?

  26. 2008 July 3 at 8:32 pm

    You really shouldn’t hate Damon. He’s a big reason why the Red Sox won the World Series in 2004.

  27. 2008 July 3 at 8:33 pm

    Karen I’m chalking it up to the Coco Crisp factor.

    Coco’s out for 5 games, they lose 5 games. He returns, the bats start to hit again.

  28. 2008 July 3 at 8:34 pm
    Karen permalink

    I know, every time I have gone to Tampa to see the Sox play they have lost. I was beginning to wonder.

  29. 2008 July 3 at 8:35 pm

    And why couldn’t they have done this on TV?

  30. 2008 July 3 at 8:35 pm
    Erin permalink

    Ian true . For me it was the way that he left Boston.

  31. 2008 July 3 at 8:35 pm
    kristina permalink

    yeah Youk……i blame the tampa losses on the field…i mean really, who names their ball field after orange juice =)

  32. 2008 July 3 at 8:36 pm

    People, we are winning now. Just enjoy it!

  33. 2008 July 3 at 8:37 pm

    Ian, Damon was surely a huge factor in 2004. I liked him a lot back then (and I was still a NYY fan at the time), but once I heard about how he treated his first wife and dumped her for Michelle, I lost all respect for him. He went from being one of my favorite players to being someone I didn’t even want to look at.

  34. 2008 July 3 at 8:38 pm

    …as someone goes for the bait.

  35. 2008 July 3 at 8:41 pm

    hello? hello?

    echo echo echo

    I love this game. I have needed this for like 5 days.

    Does anyone know which game we get Joba the hut??

  37. 2008 July 3 at 8:42 pm

    Wow. My computer had a brain fart. It only showed the first 5 comments. I thought everyone had abandoned the game. LOL

    ooooh…Lester has that intense look tonight. I swear, Beckett is pulling him aside and giving him lessons on how to be a bad ass.

    Isn’t true that Buchholz was pulled from his start w/ the Paw Sox this weekend? I wonder If that means anything.

  40. 2008 July 3 at 8:46 pm
    kristina permalink

    after those first 2 walks Jon channelled his inner Josh…throw f-ing strikes…..

  41. 2008 July 3 at 8:47 pm

    Bethie, WRKO is saying Joba Sunday night.

  42. 2008 July 3 at 8:49 pm

    Buchholz is NOT starting for the Red Sox this weekend. Terry Francona said so in his pregame presser today.

  43. 2008 July 3 at 8:49 pm

    Jon may be practicing being badass, but his left ear just waved at me, I’m certain of it.

  44. 2008 July 3 at 8:50 pm
    Erin permalink

    Thanks for the info Ian.

    I go by redsox.com for pitcher schedule. They list it up to 5 days in advance.

    I heard on the radio that Buccholz is coming back next week, and Masterson goes to the bullpen.

  47. 2008 July 3 at 9:05 pm

    that’s pure speculation. buchholz will definitely be back at some point.

    There’s also a chance Michael Bowden will be here in August as well. He’s most likely going to be promoted to Pawtucket after the All-Star break.

  48. 2008 July 3 at 9:05 pm

    Ian, have you heard any speculation about Masterson being traded? Forget where I read that today…probably just musings by whoever it was, but I didn’t like to see that.

  49. 2008 July 3 at 9:08 pm

    Honestly I don’t think Masterson will get traded or even be mentioned. He’s a part of the rotation for next year. Remember you have to replace at least Schilling, maybe Wakefield (he’s a free agent) and Colon most likely.

  50. 2008 July 3 at 9:09 pm

    I can tell you this though. The Indians will be shopping C.C. Sabathia soon and you will hear the Red Sox being mentioned. You’ll also hear about 10 other teams as well.
