Cornell Hockey Sightings

[Pete]

Noticed somebody on TV wearing a Cornell hockey jersey behind homeplate at Fenway park today, was that anybody here?  Great game, Go Sox!  :-}

[rhovorka]

I saw him as well.  And he had better seats than Boston GM Theo Epstein.  Maybe we should make freinds with him for tickets to Harvard.  :-)

But next time, try not to confuse soil the great Red of Cornell by wearing it to support that icky red of sox.  (Go Yanks!) ;-)

Amen Rich!

 ::rolleyes::

Let's go RED.....Sox!

(Has a NY vs. Boston poll question been done before?)

I was at the game, but in the bleachers.  Incredible game.  I'll have to check my TiVo copy to see the Big Red fan - good to see there's others of us with our heads on straight among The Faithful... :-P

Screw the Yankees.

[RichS]

Worry about beating the A's first...who's going to "close" after Pedro pitches his usual 6 innings?  :-D

[crodger1]

Rumor had it that the entire Bruins team was to be behind home plate for the game too... anyone able to confirm?  (Like you TiVo folks out there...)

You gonna tell me the sox haven't found a closer in Williamson?  Go Sox!!!

Convenient how wearing my Cornell Frozen Four shirt goes very well with my Sox cap (visor bent)

Actually, I was rather amused when I saw Pedro warming up in the 8th inning of, I believe, the third game. When it comes down to it, if Little really trusts the bullpen, why would he have Pedro warming up? and he wasn't just throwing just to throw, he was warming up in anticipation of entering the game.

[rhovorka]

I don't think any Sox fan trusts a good portion of that bullpen.  And I don't think any Yankee fan trusts some of the guys in their bullpen either.  If there's one thing that both fan bases can agree on...is that both teams have had rip-yer-hair-out frustration with relief pitching this year.  Hey Sox fans...what's your favorite brand of antacid?  :-)

[Erica]

I know that Rich, and I personally think that Theo Epstein would have been fired if he hadn't remotely improved the horrendous bullpen he put together before the season. My only beef with Little is that he always quotes that he absolutely 100% trusts little Kim and he would never hesitate to go to any of the middle relievers when the time comes, er, that is, when Pedro isn't available to play superhero. Anyway, I can't wait for tonight's game.

[RichS]

How many solid outings has Williamson had as a closer?   If he were so trustworthy, wouldn't he have gotten the call all this time rather than Kim?

[jbeaber1998]

Evidently (yes, here come his excuses) there were some family issues distraqcting him.  He has been solid this week.  Here's to at least one more game of that....  Theo needs to work on judgement with regards to pitchers but his recruitment of batters has been phenomenal!  Let's Go Red (Sox)!!!!!

There is no one the Red Sox would rather have on the mound than Pedro.  It's October and at this point you stop worrying about pitch counts and workload and such.  There's a long history of seeing top starters pitch relief in the World Series.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Recall Johnson coming in for Schilling in Game 7. Who were they playing again? ;-)

Can't wait for the game tonight....
