JU just heard the f-16s from the world series fly over his house....pretty f***in cool............

is it pbr or is it really quiet in fenway tonight?

Probably.  Im sure 75% of the fans there are what we call in Boston, "the pink shirts".  These are all the bandwagon fans (mostly female) that wear pink red sox hats and think a double play is something out of a porn movie.....

Is anyone elses TV sound all f'd up?

[Pat Coleman]

If by AFU'd you mean a loud buzzing noise that oscillates whenever the stadium sound is piped in, yes. Driving me nuts. I might not watch the rest of this game because it's literally stressing me out.

Yea thats it.  It seems like its a little better but they have to fix it.  I mean they were just there for the last two games with the same setup I would assume....

It's cool that you're aware, but not mentioning it meant your post was rather misleading.

ZING!!!

Reminds RT of 1993 when RPI finished 7-2 and was vying for an NCAA bid in a 16 team field against some other 1 and 2 loss teams.

RT apologizes if his facts aren't straight (and Pat will shoot RT down if he's not), the then-AD at RPI, Bob Doucette, was on the NCAA committee and didn't vote in favor of RPI for a slot...or at least that's the skinny RT heard.

He wouldn't have been able to -- when your team is being discussed, you have to get off the call. That was probably true in 1993.

ugh....drop it. I know that he couldn't vote. I worded it wrong in the post. Thank you to all the editors of the board

Remember how pissed off Walton-Yedlin's dad made the RPI folks after thier big win at Shooozapaloooza II??  He said something irritating like he usually did like, "Who cares if we lost the Shoe's?  We're going to the playoffs and RPI is not!!!!"

U89 thinks LD and the crew almost flew out to Seattle to find the old timer......

nah nah, that mellon farmer said something before the game like "Union's got the AQ and doesn't need the shoes".  And they didn't. The dutchmen also didn't need to bother driving out to Rochester after mailing in that 49-21 monkey stomp at SJF.

yup. still mad about that comment.

RT... no more coneheads.



+k to LD11 for that comment.

Rolevio was more guessing the sound was less thanks to the overpricing of tickets in resale. Doubt you'll find many paying ridiculous prices cheering as loud as most.

7 K's in 4 innings of work, giving up 1 ER so far...Josh Beckett is finding the zone, in spite of the rain.  Offense needs to pump up some more runs, though, to give him a little fudge factor/confidence boost.  Colorado won't be playing dead.

not that gro follows baseball beyond sportcenter highlights... but did this Rockies = Rox thing just start because of the WS, or has that been a nickname all year?  dumb.

That's been there nickname for Rolevio believes at least 10 years or so now.

Ive checked both places (fenway and colorado) on all the sites.  The worst seats start at $800 at each place and normal seats start at $2,000.

[Rolevio]

At those prices you're starting to get more into like a Superbowl crowd, and Superbowl crowds are awful.

Well, c'mon, most Super Bowls are blowouts...uhhhhhh...nevermind.
