Lisa the Temp:
Lisa is laying low this morning because these people are like a California forest in a Santa Ana breeze waiting for an arsonist.

Lisa the Temp:
Seriously. I tried to lighten the mood a little while ago with an "asterisk" joke, and it was like I'd offered a ham sandwich wrapped in porn to a Wahhabist.

Lisa the Temp:
Talk about a hostile work environment.

Lisa the Temp:
Someone should tell these people they are endangering their health.

Lisa the Temp:
But don't look to Lisa to say anything. No way. We can't have these fantatics going all 28 Days Later on Lisa's shapely yet taut ass.

Lisa the Temp:
Seriously, peeps, now do you know why Lisa never drinks the sports Kool-Aid?

Steve in MD, I don't disagree with your assessment of Eli's game. Honestly, they scored the same as the average # of points our defense had given up all season (17). So our defense and their offense were right on target. But our offense under-performed. The offensive line was simply offensive. Belichick or his O.C. needed to better identify the problems containing the blitzers. In a few cases, it wasn't even blitzing, it was just the defensive line alone collapsing our pocket. Brady had a third or a little more of his dropbacks hurried or sacked! Unacceptable. Why Belichick didn't put in more split-back scenarios for extra protection, I will never know. 16 total rushing attempts? That leaves NO misdirection available. There was no identifiable attempt to get Brady or the line help and it was obvious that they were floundering with the exception of the Moss TD drive. Also, we usually saw a different second-half strategy which would frequently shake up the opponents....didn't happen this week for who knows why. The offensive half of the game looked nothing like the other 18 weeks which is exactly why we scored less than we have every other week since some game in 2006 and ultimately lost the game.

[Chairman of the Board]

I'll say this. You guys are a good read. Can I be blamed for wanting to savor the invective?

Except for "pinstripe thunder"'s homophobia, which is pretty unimpressive.

Thanks for the beer, and I'll say that Belichick aside, the Pats were very classy in defeat -- especially Brady, who gave full credit to the Giants, refused to make excuses of any kind, throw anyone under the bus, etc.

[louclinton]

blow me.

[Bob]

Heh.

No, LC, just a beer.

[Kaz]

Bud Light. Suck one!

Hehe.

[pinstripe thunder]

Not homophobic, Chairman. I enjoy the DVD's of you and your Dad as much as the next guy. I just happen to enjoy the vids of you and your sister even more. Both far preferable to today's unseemly exercise in you doing yourself, though I know you like that best.

And now, Namaste in earnest.

[Steve in MD]

Kaz, Argee the O-line simply got outplayed by the Giant's D-line. I'm not sure more runs would have mattered. Almost every time they did run it was for little or no gain, setting up third and long, and the D-line was closing on Brady too quickly for him to complete long passes. I don't recall (and we do have to figure beer into my recollection!) that he completed a pass more than ten yards down the field in the air all game. I'm not sure what adjustments they could have made that would have mattered.

BTW, what I meant when I originnaly said "well played" was very few turnovers (Eli's interception hit his reciever in the hands) and I can't recall any personal fouls either.

Dodgers' game at Coliseum is a sellout

By Dylan Hernandez, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
February 3, 2008

The existing tickets for the Dodgers' March 29 exhibition game at the Coliseum were sold out within an hour of being put on sale to the general public Saturday morning.

By 11 a.m., the 90,505 tickets available for the game against the Boston Red Sox were gone.

For the Dodgers, who are celebrating their 50th season in Los Angeles, the game will mark a return to the venue they called home from 1958 to '61. The team moved into Dodger Stadium in 1962.

Charles Steinberg, the Dodgers' executive vice president of marketing and public relations, estimated that two-thirds of the tickets were purchased by season-tickets holders, to whom they were released Wednesday.

What remained of the inventory went on sale at 10 a.m. Saturday and was available at the Coliseum and Dodger Stadium tickets offices, Ticketmaster outlets, dodgers.com, and by phone.

Tickets were priced at $25, $15 and $2.

"It's great news for ThinkCure," Steinberg said, referring to the charity that will receive all of the net proceeds from the game.

ThinkCure, which aims to raise funds for cancer research, was launched in July by the Dodgers, the City of Hope and Childrens Hospital Los Angeles.

The charity was modeled after the Jimmy Fund, the official charity of the Red Sox.

Dodgers owner Frank McCourt and his wife, Jamie, have said they would match donations up to $1 million.

The Coliseum was known for its unique baseball dimensions, as the left-field foul pole was only 251 feet from home plate. Compensating for that was a screen in left field that stood 42 feet.

Left field will be even closer to home in the upcoming exhibition, somewhere in the vicinity of 200 feet.

The Dodgers set a single-game major league attendance record at the Coliseum on May, 7 1959, when they drew 93,103 fans to an exhibition against the New York Yankees to honor paralyzed catcher Roy Campanella.

Bob, Joe already has Scott Proctor warming for this game.

On balance, it does ring a bit hollow to talk shit about the Pats on this site...it's a Red Sox site after all.

An honest Yankees fan will tell you that the Giants sticking to NE is like taking 2 Vicodin and drinking Jim Beam...it's enjoyable for a while but you still have the same issues the next morning. Issues that can only be resolved from April-October.

[Jason O.]

That's: sticking it to NE

[pinstripe thunder]

Jason O has a good point, as usual. That April-October romance is the straw that stirs the drink.

[Evan]

That prick Tyree owes me 100 bucks.

lc..I'm new to this site...what the hell's a "mouth breathing kobold?"
