...and BigBri put in an appearance last night-what a shock ;O

[Bob]

Well, he needs to take a break from raising Death's Head moths down in his basement.

The Sox still have about 20% odds of winning the wild card. The twins have a 2% chance. I'm unconcerned with the Twins at this point.

However, shut it down and bring up the rookies. Evidently this season is done and the team doesn't even know it yet.

Re: Making playoffs...Would a berth feel like a pity fuck with that one ex you were just drunk enough to call?

[LarryE]

Surely giving Red Sox players a chance to date Mrs., Ms. or the two Miss Plus Anmericas would be enough motivation to ensure a playoff berth.

Eh...... maybe not.

And don't call me Shirley.

Around here, teal dress=win. Apparently not in the Plus America world, though.

[Jeff in NC]

our Ace's are just a bunch of deuces and I don't meant #2 pitchers. Just #2.

Hitting is weak, defense is weak, physical conditioning is weak.

Pseudo - I'm thinking from a dude's perspective, the playoff berth would not so much be a pity fuck (we don't really do those, cuz, well, there's really just gettin some or not gettin some), as it would be more of a "Redsox, can you put this paper bag over your head to increase my pleasure?"

[Bob]

I think a playoff berth would be more like autoerotic asphyxiation. A short-lived pleasure that ultimately ends up in choking.

[Jeff in NC]

point to Bob

[Jim S]

Bob wins. Hands-down, that's the 2010 Red Sox in a nutshell. They might make the playoffs, they might not.

Succinctly put... what f'n difference does it make, they ain't got what it takes to do anything with that plus-sized model!

[Steve in MD]

I think they make the playoffs - the Rays just apparently lost two starting pitchers from a team that has come within a fingertip of being no-hit for a third time this season.

Once we get there, everything depends on the starters, and frankly, I'm pessimistic about that.

[Harwich Rich]

Grasshopper,when you can snatch your pebbles from my hand.... ;)

[Harwich Rich]

Sorry David,it was just too easy.

[Paul in DC]

Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

[louclinton]

Bob may be right.

I am cautiously optimistic, however.

baselessly,

Evidently there is an afternoon game going on. Does anyone actually care? Belated thanks for all the exquisite recommendations on Friday.

[Jeff in NC]

So, we are sitting around the computers and TVs watching a group of closet wackers jerk off to one particularly large plus size model wearing pin stripes? with a dwarf suffering from TB running around trying to mount the model wherever he can find an opening?

I just threw up a little.

[Steve in MD]

Sox win; yanks still suck!

[Kaz]

Split the series in the Bronx. I can live with that.

[Harwich Rich]

...and BigBri still sucks.

[Steve in MD]

Goes without saying, HR.

[rolo]

If someone had offered you a tied series on Thursday, you probably would have taken it.
I'll take it.

Also: Those are normal-sized women. Take it from a fat guy.

Just wait 'til Miss Plus America gets her own Barbie doll that looks nothing like her- kinda like Christina Hendricks and the Mad Men commemerative Barbie
