CHEER UP CHARLIE!!!!

All I know is Jacques Jones has more balls than any of our hitters.  He always comes through with clutch hits for the Twins, especially against the Sox.  Anytime that Iguchi wants to get a hit with RISP would be fine with me now.

s***, anytime Rowand wants to take a swing where it looks like he has a prayer would be OK with me. His ABs tonight rivaled Crede's from the last homestand of how awful they looked

I'd be a lot happier if we still had a double digit lead.

 

No you wouldn't. You haven't been happy all year no matter what our record has been. You have been predicting doom and gloom forever.

Thanks. I've been predicting doom and gloom because I felt it was just a matter of time before our tough 2nd half schedule caught up to us, and we stopped getting all the breaks. Now, a superior Indians roster is peaking, and making up games at a frightening pace. Keep bashing me all you want, I'll still be rooting for the Sox unlike a lot of cowards on this site. It's hard to get mad about a team collapsing when they haven't done a thing to try and correct the problems the team has.

Its not even bashing you, its the truth. To be honest I haven't seen anything that looks like you are rooting for the team. Everything is about what is wrong, not what is right, fun, enjoyable, exciting etc. Even when something good happens it gets qualified by a negative. To be honest, somedays I wonder if you enjoy being right more than you enjoy a Sox win.

 

But I will give you this much, at least you were saying what you were saying consistantly. The people who had the magic numbers in their signatures and the cute sayings before, only to be replaced with how bad we suck, trade demands, and how they know we are going to lose now are the true bottom feeders. Unless you want to count the people coming out of the woodwork after not posting for months to say how bad we suck. I don't know how much you enjoy baseball, but at least you are a stand up guy.

Fair enough. Maybe I didn't seem as excited as others on here, and that was probably because in the back of my mind, I didn't think the "magic season" would continue, and didn't want to get overly optimistic. The funny thing is that three weeks ago, I was beginning to think it would take a collapse of epic proportions to not make it. Now, I feel like Arizona in the Elite Eight game against Illinois, and we have no timeouts left to stop the bleeding. Trust me though, I do root for the Sox. I wouldn't waste so much time on here if I didn't.

So what's wrong with people being negative lately? This team has been awful and is completely falling apart right before our eyes. Sure it was easy to be happy-go-lucky when we were 35 games over .500 but it doens't mean we're not good fans because we aren't that way now. I know I'm extremely pessimistic theses days but it's not because I'm not a true fan. I love this team and if I didn't I wouldn't post anything because I wouldn't even care.
