GO SOX!!!
And happy birthday, Cora!
Argh! I’m so nervous already!
“Eye of the Tiger” is going to sound even better once i pop one (or three) of these Miller High Lifes in special hunter camo cans that I bought specifically for Becks mojo purposes.
LET’S GO RED SOX!
Oh, Tampa Bay, your daydream was nice but welcome to reality no one, and I mean no one Ko’s the Sox in October anymore.
Man, I am so jacked for tonight! Got a playlist full of pro-Boston songs, a pocket full of “special” cigarettes, my remote control and very good mute button (for TBS broadcasters)
GO SOX!
And PS: Josh, buddy, pitch the game of your life!
Trying to decide if I’m going to hang around tonight. They seem to do better once I leave…
hopefully Beckett can do his best Schilling impression.
and hopefully the Sox can hit “BIG GAME JAMES” (you could make a drinking game out of how many times that will be mentioned tonight)
No thanks, Adam. I don’t really want alcohol poisoning.
I don’t think I have enough liquor for that Adam.
hey people :)
Hopefully the announcer tonight will at least not make any WS plans til last out lol.
i am hoping they want to kiss our asses tonight
god, I hate this Bon Jovi song
tia: If sports talk radio is any indication on that then yes–today the Rays went from “the most exciting team in recent history” (last week) to “boring and played out.” Ahh, the fickle nature of the MSM.
lol
Hey all! I am STOKED!
:::shovels pasta with shrimp into mouth as fast as possible so as to concentrate on game:::
I was going to have something parmesan tonight in honour of Dougie’s birthday, but I forgot to and just ate fast food instead. D:
:::passes the grated parmesan to Twinkie:::
i got 3 bags of pumpkin seeds ready to go…lol
Thank you! Mmm… Cheese…
Cheese.Is.Good.
wonders if there is anything interesting on TV tonight to watch while folding laundry….
Hey all! I’m stoked for tonight’s game–Hopefully we’ll get Commander Kick Ass and not Commander Got His Ass Kicked.
Wore my Sox gear while out running errands today. Got lots pf puzzled looks from my fellow Philadelphians.
why is there bloopers in tbs??????????????? where is the game
uhhhh…is anyone else seeing Dick Clark on TBS instead of a baseball game???
This show better cut off at 8:00 sharp or I am going to semi-freak out. What the fuck TBS???
I was wondering, too, Tia. Random…
I was a sophomore in college in 1982. I don’t know what images Eye of The Tiger conjure up for the rest of you, but for me, it doesn’t involve bad ass kickassery.
Tia – I have no idea but I did notice that after talking to Big Papi TBS was having issues with the broadcast….
oh this is interesting
WTH is up with TBS? Bloopers?
mermaid, I just folded mine.
The only kind of funny thing is that the first blooper they showed mentioned the Red Sox. Some type of omen maybe haha.
Ummm okay?
Yeah, what gives with this non-MLB junk on TBS???
r they striking cause the rays lost the last game
hmm, I’m concerned.
Game time isn’t until 8:07 though.
Greetings from Fort Lauderdale, FL! I am wearing my Marlins Josh shirt for mojo. And drinking Red Stripe. Hooray beer.
You tv guys got it back? I’m doing the radio again tonight. But I don’t have the energy to narrate the game. . .
TBS’s baseball coverage froze (green screen), they put on a lot of commercials, tried baseball again, and now bloopers. I’m sure there are a lot of people at TBS freaking out trying to get things working.
I’ve had enough of Buck and Max.
I just heard one of my neighbors yell “What is this shit?!?!”
Aaaarrrggghhhh I hate TBS right now.
Hi, all–OK, it’s not just me. (Crazy, huh?)
Anyways, I think right now, there’s nothing left for the Sox to “prove”–all they have to do is play for themselves tonight.
I’m hoping for a great game.
Where is the game? Some stupid show is on TBS…
Trish: I hope the shirt works–we could use some WS ‘03 Josh!
nope
No TV as of yet, Amanda…and they should be having Ernie and company in the studio since 7:30. This is worrisome.
Trish, you’re at the game?
technical difficulties
Technical difficulties my ass…It’s a conspiracy.
Hi. New girl here. Just a heads up, you can go to mlb.com and see some action in their Hot Corner thingie. They seem to be waiting around. I’m so excited for this game!!!
Wheres Buck and McCarver when you need them…..
