The_Admiral Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 3 hours ago, Digby said: I will also say, as a spoiled rotten Boston fan, that was easily the most fun and likable Red Sox team that I can remember. Between now and 2004 there's always been a bit of trouble finding an identity to this team, like it was just Ortiz and Pedroia and a bunch of mercenaries. But having a homegrown core that just so happens to be a bunch of good dudes who are also elite talents is kind of great! The only Red Sox championship team I disliked was 2013 because they had a Drew and the Drews are what's wrong with baseball. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait, Stephen was on that team and J.D. was on the 2007 team, right? I do agree with you and regret that the Red Sox are significant contributors to the Drew problem.

Congrats Red Sox whatever. Yankees, time for the ultimate revenge in 2019. Sad because the Yankees only netted one title since 2000, compared to four from the Red Sox, three from the Giants, and two from the Cardinals? That puts you guys in the same boat as the Diamondbacks, Angels, Marlins, White Sox, Phillies, Royals, and Cubs. You have a championship in recent memory, which should satiate you for some time. Hell, I may whine about the terrible decisions of the Giants, but I am satiated for a long-ass time with championships. In other words, welcome to being ordinary and watching the rest of the league catch up to you. You’ll probably be on top again soon enough, but remember that the rest of the baseball world despises your team and its fans. 9 minutes ago, SabresRule7361 said: The 2011 Cardinals are no longer my least favorite team to ever win a World Series Grab your megaphone and shout it at Boston City Hall. Yell at the top of your voice about it! Scream like you’ve never screamed before! Do you have the gumption to do it?

The_Admiral Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I forgot about J.D. Drew on the '07 Sox, weird. I guess that team still had enough vestiges of the '04 team that it was okay. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDGP Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 All this JD Drew talk just made me realize an absolutely insane statistic. Each of the modern era World Series Red Sox teams hit at least one grand slam during the playoffs. Damon in 04, JD Drew in 07, Ortiz AND Victorino in 13, and JBJ this year. Moral of the story? Hit grand slams. I've got a dribbble, check it out if you like my stuff; alternatively, if you hate my stuff, send it to your enemies to punish their insolence!
