If the Red Sox were a character in a play what character would they be?

or Faust.

please let it be Marlowe's Dr. Faustus if so.

Juror #3.

from 12 Angry Men?

― J Blount, Wednesday, 24 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yup. Could have the odds in their favor 11-1, and still fuck it up. Let's not forget the juror's despairing rage towards the end of the play--"damn kids ya work yer whole stinkin' life!!!!" :)

J. Blount and Kris, what's gotten into your A's . . . AGAIN? (And I thought they were ridiculous last year.) Billy Koch vultures their 20th straight win courtesy of Scott Hatteberg. That's gotta hurt, Bosox nation.

The Red Sox would be a character that absolutely sucks fucking ass.

Yeah but the Pats just won the Super Bowl so I don't feel so bad for you. Whereas the Bears, on the other hand, now have the easily-shattered Chris "Crystal Chandelier" Chandler.

Oh Jim Miller is going to lead you guys to the promise land. Hey you never know, look at Tom Brady...second stringer wins the MVP.

Sox would be someone who dies shortly after intermission. My resilient Cardinals would be he Hamlet this season.

The A's have been absurdly lucky; they're not really this good and until the Royals they seemed to be playing teams that had completely given up. The games have been lotsa fun though. I don't understand why Boston can't keep the fucking Yankees out of the playoffs just ONCE! I'm beginning to hate Boston more than the Yankees.

Kris forgets one thing: Miguel 'MVP' Tejada!

― James Blount, Friday, 6 September 2002 15:54 (twenty-four years ago)

EMM VEE PEE! EMM VEE PEE!

― Kris (aqueduct), Friday, 6 September 2002 16:42 (twenty-four years ago)

yeah bnw, despite the Cards' knack for breaking all of their starting pitchers (how many starters have they been through this year?). Benes-on-Benes action today with the Cubs!

― felicity (felicity), Friday, 6 September 2002 16:52 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm beginning to hate Boston more than the Yankees.

Welcome to my world, Kris.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 6 September 2002 16:58 (twenty-four years ago)

"Benes-on-Benes action" - what a disturbing image!

― James Blount, Friday, 6 September 2002 17:19 (twenty-four years ago)

perhaps you'd prefer (Randy) Johnson-on-Mesa action? no thanks.

― felicity (felicity), Friday, 6 September 2002 17:27 (twenty-four years ago)

les freres Benes are semi-cute, actually.

― felicity (felicity), Friday, 6 September 2002 17:31 (twenty-four years ago)

FOUL! On both counts, actually.

― David R. (popshots75`), Friday, 6 September 2002 17:31 (twenty-four years ago)

Randy Johnson on David Eckstein action!

― James Blount, Friday, 6 September 2002 19:10 (twenty-four years ago)

Anthony to thread!

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 6 September 2002 19:21 (twenty-four years ago)

nobody hates the Cardinals more than I do, but the seeing them clinch the Central last night made me feel like the grinch looking down on Whoville ==> my heart grew. They've had a rough year.

― felicity (felicity), Saturday, 21 September 2002 08:33 (twenty-four years ago)

Yeah, I'm rooting for the A's all the way, but part of me would really like to see the Cards win it.
