Dude, you can try goading the red sox fans into arguing with you so you can take some sort of high ground on the ALCS but i am pretty sure it ain't gonna happen because we have bigger fish (pun intended) to fry. The Red Sox didn't win the ALCS. We got it. We were there. We saw the game. We accepted the outcome. No one is whining about how the "Red Sox was robbed" or that the DevilRays somehow cheated. So, shut the fuck up already. Why don't you go get your blue cowbell and your jersey that still has the creases in it from being on the shelf for so long and get ready for tonight's game and

That's because I'm in Virginia.

Oh shit! I thought the presale was tomorrow! I need two tickets for Friday's sale as well--I will be on a plane to Hawaii all day!

That's what you get when you pander to Cod.

Oh, now the truth comes out. You just hate women. You know I know a few gay red sox fans and they aren't nearly as obnoxious as you.

I talked smack about the devil rays long before they made it to the ALDS. And I'm not bitter! I've had more Devilrays players on my fantasy teams over the last three years than I have had red sox players. I had Rocco Baldelli on my team even when he wasn't even PLAYING. I kept BJ Upton on the roster even when he was sent down to the minors. But you sure are making a case for the likability of their fans, huh?

How are the two things related? Boston wasn't robbed of the ALCS, they lost it because Tampa played better. Dude, no one is disputing that. You're awfully defensive. I wouldn't take it so personally that your team has shitty, fairweather fans who have to be given props in order to cheer on the team. I'm sure even after the Rays lose tonite, they will still sell out the Trop next year, right? And yes, there are a lot of New Englanders in Florida. And most of them are still Red Sox and Yankees fans, aren't they? And they buy up all the tickets when their teams come to town? Or is that just

It doesn't have anything to do with being bitter. But you have got to be kidding me if you're going to make a case for the Ray's fan base as being anything but ineffectual, inconsequential and insignificant for that last how many years? Let's just say "forever." I am sure there are a few fans who own DEVILrays gear, but honestly, are you going to try to tell me that there's 40K + devilrays fans out there from "before"? Filling the stadium over the last 11 years? Really?

The folks who live across the street from me served with John McCain in the Navy and they have a big Obama sign in their yard. They have nothing but bad things to say about him and echoed the sentiments of what many said in the Rolling Stone article.

Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the team didn't actually really have fans until the second half of the season...They really don't quite exist enough to be true assholes yet.

Really people, if you haven't read that mccain article in rolling stone, you really need to.

I voted at lunch too. For macaroni and cheese!

you may be right-ish (no pun intended) but I think that Bobbob didn't actually bring any pringles on the plane with him. He just complained about the choices. also, pringles are not very nutritious. they are made from potatoes that have been mashed dehydrated, reconstituted and then fried up into the shape of a chip. Not a good choice regardless.

Did you read that rolling stone article about McCain that I posted about five election threads ago?

from my fairfax county democrats newsletter this morning:

i voted on saturday and it was a 2 hour wait to get through approx 50 people because the county wasn't even remotely prepared for early voting. one poll worker was on the phone with someone from the county registrar's office who was looking up names, one by one, in a big paper book, to ensure that we were all legal voters and once you were cleared you could vote. So it was literally, one at a time. I am surprised there wasn't a riot. seriously.

Caliber reports that all the democrat VOTE cookies at Swiss Bakery have been bought up, so I think probably your vote isn't going to count.

thankfully Caliber's family keeps their politics to themselves (although I suspect plenty of them are Obama people) and my family are all vehement Obama supporters.

Do you really want Dubes running the country? Because that's who McCain is. Also I heard that it was Obama who got Mrs. Fields out of Chapter 11.

sunflowers. complements of Jess.

I filled up last night for $32 and that was the medium grade--not the cheap sludge Caliber likes to use.

do it. We could use a little fun around here.

Oh please. Suffer, bitches. I seem to remember running out of Fenway Franks in 04 AND 07.

he's half white too you know. But Palin, she's all crazy. She's a political animal the likes of which I haven't seen in a long time. I am actually surprised she didn't kill and eat John McCain on the campaign trail, although I guess there is still time.

You betcha.
