Ok...since the Irish season is slightly less than what I had wished for and the numerous fire Wies and the ship is going down threads have driven me into a deep depression I have taken a deeper interest in offseason baseball. Join me if you wish...I have to say its a pretty nice way to avoid...

ESPN - One more year: Schilling, Red Sox agree on deal - MLB

Breaking News on CNBC just stated that Joe Torre has turned down a 5 mil per year deal to come back and coach the Yankees. The deal included a mil bonus for each of the playoff levels, making the contract worth 8 million if Torre were able to take the yanks to the world series. However, Joe...

All right...I figured I'd start a little thread so that we could all discuss our postseason push. So far it pretty much looks like the Phills are done...pitching has just killed them. Its a shame too, though I can't stand Philly sports it was a good story. No offense to Tribe fans but I...

ESPN - MLB fashion police check Francona during game - MLB Wow, good thing MLB made sure Francona had his uni top on, it could have been a huge blemish on Baseball's record had a manager worn a team jacket without his uniform top underneath of it where no one would have known any different...

Wow, I can't tell you how excited I am that the Sox are handling the Yankees the way that they are, especially with A-Rod being so hot. It just goes to show you that no amount of offense can make up for poor pitching on a consistant basis. The good news for all Sox fans is that the Yankee...

I can't express how surprised I was that Okajima shut down the yanks for the save on friday night. When I saw him running out of the pen I was a little nervous, but he just shut down a-rod and company. Very impressive. It makes me feel so much better about our chances this year as we will...

Wow...I think that may have been one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. I can't imagine being at Fenway when that happened, I was going nuts in my living room just watching it unfold. Finally it looks as if the Sox bats have awoken....the rest of baseball is in trouble now.

I love seeing this side of Josh Beckett, talk about lights out. He has pitched his game his past two outings and is really showing the world what he is capable of. I have very high hopes for Beckett and think he will ultimately be the pitcher to lead the Sox this year. Like I've said before...

I just heard a little bit about this on my way to work, then read the article on ESPN's website about it a little bit, but didn't really get any details. Does anyone know which carries will have the Extra Innings Package and how they will bill for it? Also, for anyone who had it with Direct...

Lets hope Beckett can get the Sox on track today. It would be nice to see a lights out outing by Beckett with the hitters putting the ball in play alot, so that we can get over that opening day dissapointment, I mean come on, its the Royals. I'd also like to see Paps today to see how his...

Gore signs a 4 year extension, Alex Smith looks to be progressing quite well and Clemens now will roam in the secondary. Any other Niner fans getting ready for a return to greatness? I have to say, I've had my doubts about Smith and even hoped at the beginning of last year that maybe he...

I hope the all those yankee fans were watching yesterday as Daisuke put on a pitching clinic. Retiring 15 of his last 16 batters with 7 K's is no small order. I am getting incredibly anxious for April 1st. Lets Go Sox!!

Ran across this article about Jimmy playing with an injured arm since last year. I know the article states that Weis doesn't see it as a problem, but then again what coach would admit anxiety about a highly touted QB? Anyone else heard of anything about the injury or have anymore info? I...

I saw on ESPN's site that Boston was in the mix to acquire a closer, but it was an insider article. Anyone know of any rumors or anything that could be in the works? This could be huge, even if we do have to give up a young arm so that we could solidify our chances this year.

Does anyone else out there think that the new MLB New Era hats, with the little colored piece above the ear, are hideous? I really hope that they don't catch on.

I guess its just me, but I can't help but bask in the fact that all yankees fans can talk about is the Red Sox. Seems to me like they are a little worried about this season with the addition of Dice-K and our strong starting pitching staff. Its funny how all the Yanks fans claim that Sox fans...

Sorry guys, as I am sure you all have had about all you can take of the whole Quinn v. Russell debate with the draft looming ahead I just couldn't help but post this. Its one of those "What If?" articles written on ESPN that talks of the whoe Leaf/ Manning debate...

Over on ESPN's NFL Draft page, the headlining artical written by Len Pasquarelli states that the Texans may be looking to trade up in order to draft Brady. Now I'm not an ESPN insider so I don't really know what the body of the article states and if the headline is just bait to get readers or...
