    Re: The 2011 Boston Red Sox: This Space for Rent

    The second base umpire called Ellsbury out earlier and MacDonald to end the game. Both calls were terrible and would have changed the game. I think Orsillo's point was that when you're winning, those calls will go your way, when you're losing they go against you.

      Do you really think the puppet would say anything negative about the Red Sox?

        when they are the right call, they also tend to go against you.

          Yes, but they weren't the right calls.

            Are you serious? The call in the third against Ellsbury was brutal.

              Well, played 'em three times and still on track.

              When I get back from the FF on Sunday, I'll come over the Tobin. I expect to see long lines waiting to jump off.

                        I can understand the hitting struggling or the pitching struggling. But both? At the same time?

                              Who's in favor of having Tek start every other game? I mean come on? Salty needs to watch and learn from Tek on how to call a game. Neither one can hit so why not have tek in there a little more until salty can understand the game and the staff?

You simply can't appreciate a title as much if you don't suffer through a lot of failure beforehand. To put it another way, if MNS ever gets any, he'll appreciate the experience on a far deeper level than the rest of us did when it was our first time, simply because he's gone far longer and failed far more than we ever did.

                                I agree 100%. Tek also usually starts the season strong. I feel he should be getting the vast majority of the starts until Salty gets comfortable.
