I'm not really sure how he does it. From what I know, Okajima is the only pitcher in the majors to not have his eyes on the catcher's mitt when he releases the ball. maybe its a matter of timing and lots of practice. |

OH NOES! No DH in Coors Field! Oh wait....
Boston is now 7-0 in their last 7 World Series game. They have outscored the Rockies 25-8. Sorry Butcher, but I'll be putting my order in tomorrow night for Red Sox World Champion t-shirts and hats.

This reminds me of a classic Chinese fable. So this one time a crane came across a beach and saw a clam whose shell was wide open. The crane went to eat the clam, but the clam, feeling alarmed, refused to give up so it snapped its shell shut. As the clam and the crane continued to struggle, this fisherman came by all excited because he was able to catch both a crane and a clam that day without putting in any effort. I'm not sure what the moral of that story was, but Go Sox! |

I'm a man of my word and if the Rockies lose, I'll keep this pic ( thing ) in my sig for thirty days. It's not over but being down 0-3 it looks bad, so I went ahead and put it in my sig ( secretly hoping it will jinx the Sox ). It hurts but a bet is a bet. I shrank it to avatar size, i didn't want my sig taking up half the page. We never said how big it had to be. Besides I still might win. ;D Yeah and Tim dalton might grow hair. |

Sox know as well as anyone that even a 3-0 lead in a series means nothing. We can't eat the cake before your birthday, as a wise man once said.

Lester has gone through five innings with a 2-0 lead. If he can get through the next inning, then Delcarmen-to-Okajima-to-Papelbon should seal it. Come on... [glow=red,2,300] GO SOX![/glow] (win it so that Vegas can earn $100 ) |

Tito should know by now that Timlin can't keep his inherited runners from scoring.

Just got back from my friend's house where the Red Sox capped off a great 2007 season by sweeping the Rockies and getting their second world title in the last 4 years! Just an awesome display by the entire roster.
YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

(win it so that Vegas can earn $100 ) Right after work today I picked up my cash and, although I did lose a little $ yesterday on the NFL, I still had enough left over to buy decent tickets to see my school UNLV play home games against Louisville and Utah this season in college basketball. I tend to do the best at the sportsbook for baseball and the worst at football. |
