Portland Sox Fan

Opening Day…and I still hate the Red Sox this year

I’m hoping watching a few actual games will shake me of my doldrums this year…but Christ, I hate these guys. Between the way ownership treated Tito on the way out, and many of the players quite unlikable, and the insufferable Bobby V…ugh.

By the way, that dipshit just signed a weekly radio deal to appear with Michael Kay on ESPN 1050 in NY. I’m sure THAT spot will never generate any kind of controversy.

On a PSF.com related note, congratulations to longtime chatter Dewey who welcomed his first child into the world yesterday; an 8 lb 2 oz daughter!

And the answer is…this place!

Had to completely reinstall WordPress; working to get things back the way they were. Bear with me! Chat works, logins and comments should work…gotta work on restoring the design.

What’s in worse shape; this place or the 2012 Sox?

Having neglected things around here for a while, some hacker put up a phishing site somewhere on the domain. Trying to get that cleared up with the powers that be. But we’re still here; us and about 1,000 Russian spammers!

Anybody else not optimistic at all about the upcoming season?

Oh, and if I accidentally deleted your account when I just got rid of the 500 spam accounts, I humbly apologize.

Not dead, and not hacked

Some spambot managed to slip through the registration process and sent a PM to everybody in here. However, if any of you actually meet up with LISSYAA, let me know if she’s hot or not.

Thanks!

Why, nothing is wrong!

1/2 game out at the end of May? I can live with that!

So what the hell is wrong??

And are we ready to be jumping off of bridges?

Personally, I don’t think so. Plenty of time left to turn this around. That doesn’t mean that there aren’t things that need to be fixed. Mainly their $100 million #5 starter. And by ‘fixed’ I mean ‘jettisoned’, but I doubt that will happen.

I have to believe this team will hit. I’m not ready to assume career worst years for the entire lineup 11 games into the season. I think last night definitely exposes a weakness, though…the lineup Francona puts out there against tough lefties is pretty terrible.

But honestly, the only thing I think will consistently stink this year is Matsuzaka.

Here I was

Nice seats

Opening Day!

The rest of them don’t count, right? Those were still spring training games…right???

So should we be worried?

PSF — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 12:29:18 +0000

Yeah, 0-5 sucks…but if the team lost 5 in a row sometime in June or July we wouldn’t be jumping of bridges, would we?

Regardless, it isn’t good.

I have to think that the hitting and the starting pitching will come around. For all the whining about Matsuzaka, he IS the team’s 5th starter right now. I’ll take 3 runs in 5 innings out of the 5th starter all season long. It is the bullpen that I’m not terribly confident in. I know on paper it is supposedly better…but right now the only person in the pen who doesn’t scare me to death is Bard, and he already spit the bit once this year.

Here’s hoping they get of the schnide today. 12:00 start in Cleveland, Lester to the rescue? Pop into chat to get the play by play.

Work in progress

So with Chatroll sucking, I’m trying other options. I think I like this one; it turns the whole site into a kind of social community. Chat can be found from the dropdowns up top; I will be able to customize it but I’m not going to be able to do that right now.

Next thing I have to do is get rid of all the spammers that have signed up over the years…there are thousands. If your login no longer works, re-register or shoot me an email. It is very likely that people were deleted accidentally.

Chat is working; the link is up on the top bar.
