Ramius Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Alright, since the season is underway, and eventually, the numerous Sox and Yanks fans are going to start jawing at one another, i've created this thread for all trash talking. Here are some rules: 1. Per TSW rules, no personal attacks. 2. You are free to trash the other team to your hearts content. Just dont go cluttering up the board with 65 "I hate the yanks/sox" or "the yanks/sox are going to win the series" threads. Keep it here. 3. Reasonable baseball discussion centering on these 2 teams or players on them or news about them are welcome. But if they degrade into a flame war between the 2 sets of fans, the thread will be merged in here. 4. This IS the place to post your "hahaha, yankees won/lost, sox won/lost posts", that provide no substance to the rest of the board. Thanks, and happy posting.
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 They got lucky yesterday. Here comes a 3 game losing streak!
billsdiva007 Posted April 5, 2008 Posted April 5, 2008 Not a fan of either team, but I will say that the Red Sox have damn near become the Yankees. For years they cried about the Yankees buying championships & players & now the Red Sox have turned around and done the same ish! I will say that while I'm not a fan of either, I do like like Jeter & Big Papi, classy guys.
KD in CA Posted April 5, 2008 Posted April 5, 2008 Not a fan of either team, but I will say that the Red Sox have damn near become the Yankees. Pretty much. 5 years ago it was fun to jump on the Sox bandwagon and root against the Empire. But now the Sawx are just as bad and they are also 99% dickhead Pats* fans, so fug 'em. Go Yanks.
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Someone needs to explain how the Rays are leading the division!
inkman Posted April 7, 2008 Posted April 7, 2008 Someone needs to explain how the Rays are leading the division! It's April 6th.
KD in CA Posted April 7, 2008 Posted April 7, 2008 Still.... still what?? f&*kin' A...go sign up for a stats class you dope. btw...maybe the Rays are leading because the Sox just got swept. Better get ready to jump again...

Better get ready to jump again... By the Jays! And yes, the Sox fans can try and rationalise it however they want, but they have become a clone of the Yanks, and so have the fans.

But its not the ultimate. Please go away, you !@#$ing idiots......... A sixty million advantage equals ARod, MO, and Posada and then dollar for dollar with your payroll. As a Red Sox fan we can hardly cry poor mouth but the financial advantage NYYY will enjoy in years after new stadium will bestaggering. Only Boston, Mets, Phillies, Dodgers, LAA and maybe either or both Chicago teams will be competitive. That's it

My god!! you mean they did it with playing baseball on the field? Not with bank accounts? Tell me thats not true?? St. Louis Chi. White Sox Florida Anaheim Arizona
