Fun with Anagrams:

Boston Red Sox becomes "Next-Door Boss" (...hmmmm...)

Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim becomes "Halo gleam of genial saneness." (huh...)

2. Darren Posted: October 07, 2007 at 02:05 PM (#2565518)

Dustin Pedroia--Super Addition.

Go team, put them away today if you can!

3. Gamingboy Posted: October 07, 2007 at 02:19 PM (#2565527)

That Dustin Pedroia one is perfect.

4. jim in providence Posted: October 07, 2007 at 02:23 PM (#2565531)

Dustin Pedroia also = Sordid Petunia.

Ewww ...

5. Lassus Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:05 PM (#2565556)

OK, I'm ultimately rooting for Boston, but these sweeps are denying me more baseball.

6. Lassus Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:10 PM (#2565564)

Good call....

7. jim in providence Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:10 PM (#2565565)

No way the Yanks lose tonight.

8. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:14 PM (#2565566)

I wonder if Schilling will have his splitter today. If not, he's in trouble, but if so, he should have a good game.

9. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:18 PM (#2565570)

8000 outside fastball in a row...

10. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:21 PM (#2565574)

Good splitter to get Vlad off balance there.

11. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:28 PM (#2565578)

Great AB there for Manny

12. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:30 PM (#2565580)

Mikey!

13. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:31 PM (#2565582)

JD :(

14. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:31 PM (#2565583)

How much does Drew suck? A lot.

15. Biff, Red Sox Jinx Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:31 PM (#2565584)

Damn you DJ.

16. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:32 PM (#2565585)

0-1 to Cappy. We're sunk.

17. TravisBedard Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:34 PM (#2565586)

bah

18. Biff, Red Sox Jinx Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:34 PM (#2565587)

We are so bad at getting in the runner from 3rd with less than 2 outs. Grah.

19. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:34 PM (#2565588)

Cappy is crap.

20. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:35 PM (#2565589)

They just said 60% for the season, Biff. I dunno what AL average is.

21. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:36 PM (#2565590)

#### why did you just chase that you dumbass

22. Biff, Red Sox Jinx Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:36 PM (#2565591)

Ball 3, Coco.

23. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:37 PM (#2565592)

Lucky that hit the ump for the Angels

24. Biff, Red Sox Jinx Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:38 PM (#2565593)

####### futile.

25. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:38 PM (#2565594)

Crisp is so damn stupid a hitter.

26. Curse of the Graffanino (dfan) Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:41 PM (#2565597)

LET'S GO RED SOX

27. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:43 PM (#2565600)

Muthaf*cking 0-2 leadoff hit. F*CK.

28. Curse of the Graffanino (dfan) Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:43 PM (#2565602)

Muthaf*cking 0-2 leadoff hit. F*CK.

There was one out.

29. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:43 PM (#2565603)

Oops-one away. Duh.

30. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:45 PM (#2565604)

BTW, Schill has been lucky so far.

31. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:47 PM (#2565605)

Lucky as all get-out. Schilling is getting smacked about fairly hard so far.

32. Curse of the Graffanino (dfan) Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:48 PM (#2565606)

DP! Only 22 pitches through 2.

33. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:49 PM (#2565607)

22 pitches, 7 line drives? ;)

34. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:52 PM (#2565610)

Theo "EHPS-styne." Nice.

Dusty's pressing or hurt or both.

35. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:53 PM (#2565611)

Ugh, ugly 2-2 swing there Dusty

36. dreamydave Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:54 PM (#2565613)

why's anderson out of the game?

37. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:54 PM (#2565614)

Weaver's "on" this afternoon.

38. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:56 PM (#2565615)

The pink eye flared up?

39. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 03:58 PM (#2565616)

Schilling had better get the ball down, or alter his get-ahead approach, or something.

40. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:01 PM (#2565618)

And where is everyf*ckingbody? Its a playoff game!!!

41. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:02 PM (#2565619)

Dunno Teddy

42. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:04 PM (#2565620)

Another 1-2 hit. F*ck me.

43. Biff, Red Sox Jinx Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:05 PM (#2565621)

Out. He got into the bag safely, but he was completely off the bag at one point with the glove still on him.

44. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:05 PM (#2565622)

Woo, another 0-2 hit.

45. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:05 PM (#2565624)

He's out. But of all the AL Umpires For Life, Brucknor is about the worst.

46. The Piehole of David Wells Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:05 PM (#2565625)

schilling is not looking great today.

47. Biff, Red Sox Jinx Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:05 PM (#2565626)

And why am I not surprised that it's ####### CB Bucknor blowing that call? Why the #### is an umpire as bad as Bucknor working in the playoffs?

48. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:05 PM (#2565627)

er, 1-2 hit, sorry.

49. Curse of the Graffanino (dfan) Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:06 PM (#2565628)

C'mon, get Vlad

50. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:06 PM (#2565629)

Why the #### is an umpire as bad as Bucknor working in the playoffs?

Unions.

51. The Piehole of David Wells Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:07 PM (#2565630)

"there IS no excuses this time of year."

i hate these tbs announcers, including don orsillo.

52. Curse of the Graffanino (dfan) Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:07 PM (#2565631)

At least Guerrero won't get an 0-2 hit.

53. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:07 PM (#2565632)

He had come off the bag. CB is incompetent. But they gave up another f*cking 1-2 hit.

54. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:09 PM (#2565633)

Here comes the 1-2 hanger splitter?

55. The Piehole of David Wells Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:09 PM (#2565634)

tek!

56. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:10 PM (#2565635)

Whew. Well executed 1-2 for a change.

57. Curse of the Graffanino (dfan) Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:10 PM (#2565636)

Yeah!

58. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:10 PM (#2565637)

Cappy hangs on...barely.

59. Anabolix Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:11 PM (#2565638)

why is anderson out?

60. The Piehole of David Wells Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:12 PM (#2565639)

garret anderson: some kind of eye issue.

61. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:12 PM (#2565641)

I'll try my dumb line again:

OK, our turn. Let's make like the the extras in an old Lon Chaney Jr. flick and chase this Hump!

62. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:13 PM (#2565642)

Good bye

63. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:13 PM (#2565643)

He's a very bad man.

64. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:17 PM (#2565645)

Haha damn Manny owned that one

65. Biff, Red Sox Jinx Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:17 PM (#2565646)

I enjoy our 3-4 hitters.

66. The Piehole of David Wells Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:17 PM (#2565647)

i bought a ticket for game 4. i hope i don't need it.

MANNY!

67. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:17 PM (#2565648)

Bang.

68. The Milton Bradley Effect (Voxter) Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:17 PM (#2565649)

Manny Ramirez is good at baseball.

69. The Piehole of David Wells Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:18 PM (#2565651)

sounds like the sox have a very good presence at the ballpark today.

70. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:18 PM (#2565652)

Did Steve Stone just call Pedroia a speed guy?

71. John DiFool2 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:19 PM (#2565653)

The Angels didn't throw at either of these guys for their alleged showboating in the past; did they pay the price?

72. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:20 PM (#2565654)

#70 yes. All guys who hit less than 20 HR's are speed guys I guess.

73. The Piehole of David Wells Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:21 PM (#2565655)

pats win. 5-0. ####. they are good. it's fun to be a fan of sports in new england (until basketball and hockey start, then it sucks.)

74. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:22 PM (#2565656)

# 73-The C's will be OK.

75. Biff, Red Sox Jinx Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:22 PM (#2565657)

Manny ties Bernie Williams for most postseason HR.

76. The Piehole of David Wells Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:22 PM (#2565658)

buchholzes. ellsburys. i had no idea we had more than one of each of them. score!

77. Biff, Red Sox Jinx Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:23 PM (#2565659)

pats win. 5-0. ####. they are good. it's fun to be a fan of sports in new england (until basketball and hockey start, then it sucks.)

I don't care about basketball or hockey at all, so whatever.

78. Jose Can Jussi Jokinen (Justin T) Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:25 PM (#2565661)

Hockey started!!!11

79. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:26 PM (#2565663)

Lets see if Shakey Schill sacks up suffuciently.

80. Dave Cyprian Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:27 PM (#2565664)

#76 I know that trend is so annoying among sportcaster types... "Your Angels outfielders, your Vladdys, your Willites, your Andersons, players that really fit the mold of a starting Angel outfielder"

81. Dave Cyprian Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:28 PM (#2565665)

There is a certain type of hitter who needs to get it done for NY to stay in this series... your Rodriguezes, your Jeters, your Canos... That type of guy really needs to step it up today.

82. The Piehole of David Wells Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:29 PM (#2565666)

schilling hasn't thrown 100 pitches since.... not even 100 pitches since.... in fact the last time he threw 100 pitches....

KEEP YOUR NOTES ORGANIZED.

83. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:30 PM (#2565668)

Did the gun just say 94 mph?

84. The Milton Bradley Effect (Voxter) Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:30 PM (#2565670)

To be fair, there are a lot of Rodriguezes in the major leagues.

85. The Piehole of David Wells Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:31 PM (#2565671)

i can't wait to see the headline if the sox win this game: "sox beat angels b-squad to clinch series!"

86. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:31 PM (#2565672)

I really like John Farrell.

87. The Piehole of David Wells Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:32 PM (#2565674)

did anyone else notice that schilling has lost some velocity in the last, oh, 3 years or so, and now has to make himself into a different pitcher? if anyone else in the world, i mean anyone, wants to comment on this, TBS would like to interview you live, right now. even your grandmother. pets. whatever.

88. bonifacio's got the good face! Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:33 PM (#2565676)

wow, that was some meek ####--channeling the Cubs and the Phils...

89. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:34 PM (#2565677)

And the Angels like to manufacture runs. Really. A lot.

90. Jose Can Jussi Jokinen (Justin T) Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:35 PM (#2565679)

To be fair, there are a lot of Rodriguezes in the major leagues.

Racist!

91. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:36 PM (#2565680)

Great AB Coco.

92. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:38 PM (#2565682)

See Lugo get picked off.

93. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:39 PM (#2565686)

Take Dusty.

94. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:40 PM (#2565687)

He might have been out at 2nd had the OC hung onto the throw.

Don't get picked off Lugo.

95. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:40 PM (#2565688)

Pedroia always takes 3-0. He doesn't even stand in ready to swing.

96. Git 'er Dunn Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:42 PM (#2565690)

TBS is obsessed with stolen bases. Probably the only thing they're confident their cameramen will catch...

97. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:43 PM (#2565691)

Humongo spot for Weaver/LAAoA.

98. tfbg9 Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:44 PM (#2565693)

Perfect 0-0 from Weaver.

Perfect 0-1 also.

Crap.

99. Biff, Red Sox Jinx Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:45 PM (#2565696)

Mother ###### that was bad.

100. Dan Posted: October 07, 2007 at 04:45 PM (#2565697)

That sucks Youk.
