I'm sure most people on this board think we should be there.

i feel bad for you guys, i really do. growing up in a red sox family i have experinced the greatest punch to the stomach. i watched grown men almost in tears in 2003 because of the dumbest move in baseball history *grady litte* i know how you feel, but this only makes the prize so much sweeter

I should try that some day, i've watched them play at the peb earlier in the year.

The practice was NOT open to the public, just to certain people to who were invited.

LMAO...

I don't believe that they are doing that again, if they are, it isn't this weekend.

5'11, yea right

If attendence is based only on "who are we playing?" then I don't expect too many people to be at games this year. In my own opinion, last years basketball games were way more exciting and better games to watch than our football games. With the Belt being fairly even, any team can win on any given night. Edit: Just need to get lucky March 3rd and win 4 straight

im jealous, im not even an astros fan, but i would love to see playoff baseball live

I don't hate every player who left the Red Sox, just certain players. Pedro, was and still is my favorite player. Nomar will still be a favorite of mine, you will also never hear me say a bad word about any of the 25. The reason that the media pulls so hard for Boston and ny is that they bring in the largest ratings. MLB can't be that thrilled that the four biggest "tv teams" (BOS, NY, ATL, CHI C) aren't still in the playoffs. Hating a player is just part of the game, it makes sports more fun. Why do Maryland fans hate JJ Redick? Same thing, good player for the opposite team. I will still be watching the playoffs, I am a baseball fan, and a Red Sox fan. But in the end I guess my loyatly lies to the laundry, not the player.

I am pulling for OC, but not his team, because as Red Sox fan, I have no "other" favorite team. But OC was and will always be one of the 25. I also root against Clemens, the only hat he should wear when he gets elected to the hall is a UT hat with a money side on the back. I hate the Texas Con-Man.

Looks better than Fouts

I can't read that...so you are just wasting your time by posting anything...

Let's be honest here. Meager would be the THIRD STRING QB if all was right. With the passing of Smith and Byerly being too stupid to play, Meager was thrown into the starting spot. Meager never would have seen the feild, even in a blow out if things had gone the way that they had planned. I think the expectations for what would have been a THIRD STRING QB are a little high or maybe you just haven't realized what he was designed to be when this team was put together.

Always the BoSox...Great start so far by Clement, I'd like to give him back to the Cubs right now !

King, atleast we can agree on the GMG, otherwise, I don't think we could get along.

Amen. As for the MFY's, biggest Choke Ever. Enough said.

Why Is Baseball So Much Better Than Football? by Thomas Boswell (1987) All Super Bowls haven't produced as much drama as the last World Series. All Super Bowls haven't produced as many classic games as either pennant playoff did this year. Baseball has a bullpen coach blowing bubble gum with his cap turned around backward while leaning on a fungo bat; football has a defensive coordinator in a satin jacket with a headset and a clipboard. Football players and coaches don't know how to bait a ref, much less jump up and down and scream in his face. Baseball players know how to argue with umps; baseball managers even kick dirt on them. Earl Weaver steals third base and won't give it back; Tom Landry folds his arms. Eighty degrees, a cold beer and a short-sleeve shirt is better than 30 degrees, a hip flask and six layers of clothes under a lap blanket. Take your pick: suntan or frostbite. Having 162 games a year is 10.125 times as good as having 16. If you miss your favorite NFL team's game, you have to wait a week. In baseball, you wait a day. Everything George Carlin said in his famous monologue is right on. In football you blitz, bomb, spear, shiver, march and score. In baseball, you wait for a walk, take your stretch, toe the rubber, tap your spikes, play ball and run home. All gridirons are identical; football coaches never have to meet to go over the ground rules. But the best baseball parks are unique. Baseball statistics open a world to us. Football statistics are virtually useless or, worse, misleading. For instance, the NFL quarterback-ranking system is a joke. Nobody understands it or can justify it. The old average-gain-per- attempt rankings were just as good. While football is the most closed of games, baseball is the most open. A fan with a score card, a modest knowledge of the teams and a knack for paying attention has all he needs to watch a game with sophistication. Without baseball, there'd have been no Fenway Park. Without football, there'd have been no artificial turf. Fenway Park — There's a magic there unlike any other place in sports. There's a stateliness that transcends even the special things that have happened there. Every baseball fan knows Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak is the single most unbreakable record in sports. Or maybe it's Ted Williams' .406 batting average in 1941. Or Nolan Ryan's 5,714 career strikeouts. Baseball's numbers are more than just numbers. They shake memories, provide reference points and are unlike those in any other sport. Bull Durham/Field of Dreams — Baseball has inspired wonderful movies. Football has North Dallas Forty. The World Series — Nine days. Seven games. Curt Schilling's stitched ankle. Priceless. I've got nothing against football and I will be at all the games, I was just raised playing catch in the front yard with ball and a glove.

Edit: Wrong thread...

I'll be there after the World Champion Boston Red Sox game is over. Sorry I don't live and die football but I will support my school all that I can.

UNT - 5 Troy - 3 On a last secon field goal! Atten: 6500 (It's baseball season )

Bump TWO DAYS!

It's the Red Sox/Yankees of College Football.

I'm not confident in any game we play this year.

What is our budget?
