You noticed that too, eh?Looks like like the loss of Varitek is looming larger and larger as this travesty goes on. Hopefully we haven’t turned all of these “untouchable” young arms into a bunch of Calvin Schiraldi wannabees…
I don’t think it’s quite fair to use the phrase “Boston Massacre”, not because this past weekend hasn’t been disastrous, but because the ’78 team was much better than this year’s team has ever been. Putting the 2004 team aside for a moment, I would say that the ’78 team was the most talented team in my lifetime (born in ’68). That team had no business collapsing the way they did. This year’s team just isn’t good enough. I’ve never thought they were as good as the White Sox, and it seems they’re also not as good as the Tigers, Yankees, or Twins.

I kinda lost interest after Ted Williams, The Greatest Hitter Who Ever Lived, retired from playing.

Whispers — You’re right. That’s why I don’t feel all that let down.
