WTF is wrong with the Red Sox this weekend?
The pitching imploded. The bats went silent. Granted, Texas has a good team this year. They are part of the A-Rod curse: every team he leaves has great years afterwards.

But :wtf: is WRONG with the Sox? Was it Pedro's comments? And is it suitable to start calling the manager "Grady" Francona?

:grr: :cry:

4. Welcome to DU!
Yes, it's like riding an emotional rollercoaster being a Sox fan. I really think the Pedro comments put a damper on everything-not to blame him. Then of course Sports Radio just said that Nomah may not be back until June! Oh well...I guess I should be used to this.

Same old Sox. They do well at first and fall apart when September rolls around. I have given up hope on them since...AND THE BALL GOES THROUGH BUCKNER'S LEGS!!!!!!!! AAAARRRRRGHGGHGGGG!!! GIVE ME A KNIFE!!!!

Stick with the Pats. At least they try!

7. Hey Pedro!
SHUT UP!


Guy never gives interviews or comments, but when he does, he's always talking out of his ass.

9. **Scratching ones head***
Guess what everyone?? Everyone loses two or three in a row!! It is not a big deal. Let Pedro have his say. Let Lowe have his say. Let Nomar have his say. When all is said and done, we will win the American League because these guys egos will kick in and they will play as if their paychecks depended on it (which it does)! Red Sox fans have this incrediable fatalistic approach to life. The glass is never half full it is totally empty! With that all said........... Everyone now.....



THIS IS THE YEAR!!!
