Aussie Sox Freak who found you Thanks to Allan's JoS

For the last few weeks I have been thinking we JUST need to finish in front of Oakland ......

The last few days has put paid to that theory, now Sea & Tor have vaulted over them

Was looking through the remaining schedule & Oak v Sea is a 7 gamer !!! So hopefully Oak 4-3 ! We still have 3 out in the Rainy City next week I think ? so they are bound to be massive

But ultimately you are correct - the Long View says we'd be done before August & no Sox Freak wouldn't have jumped at this situation in March ....... remember when we lost the Opening 3 to Baltimore !!!!!!!!! Back then I thought we might even manage to lose 163

Covid notwithstanding ...... I think we might make it ...... JUST & I think we deserve to.

As for whether we can avenge Bucky Fuckin Dent ....... I could think of only a handful of games that would be bigger in my Lifetime of 53 years

Bobby Fuckin Dalbec or

Rafael Fuckin Devers has a nice ring to it ........ Maybe ?

Howdy. Came here via Joy of Sox. Am an old, diehard, Canadian Red Sox fan (since 5yo, 1953). Can only follow Sox by being trapped by MLB-TV, where I'm blocked when they play the Jays. Other than that, am enjoying this season immensely and look forward to your take on all things Red Sox.

The ups and downs with this team are truly remarkable. It's amazing that a team with so low expectations can cause such ire among the talking heads for how well they've played. They also endear themselves so quickly. I want to be done with this team so many times, but they do something so little and I find myself wanting to believe. I'm glad the numbers are on the Sox side for now.
