It's just a guess, but perhaps Jen is just razzing me for taking issue with the attitudes and behaviors of Phillies fans in general (although not Jen in particular). I hope it's not that Jen is going over to another "side of the fence" and embracing the evil empire.

Jen, you do realize that the scumbag Steinbrenners would want nothing to do with someone like you, right? They only want people who have no souls.

And all this time I thought George only wanted poor people so that he could throw millions of dollars at them for doing absolutely nothing.

What a game! The Red Sox -- a team the pundits said would have no offense this season (what with the shift to "run prevention") -- beat the Yankees 9-7, coming back from a 5-1 deficit!

SMC:

Somebody is too excited to get any sleep tonight?

Just a guess. Good game though. Congrats.

Cool! I was going to check the highlights of the game(it was 8-7 when I checked earlier) but I figured I would check this thread out first. Neither starter was very good, but the offense was alive and kicking!

Good start to the season.

Good start to the season.

Actually, Beckett was great in the 1-2-3 top of the 1st inning, getting three outs on 7 pitches. But his curveball wasn't working at all, which was weird given how effective it was in his last spring training start.

Sabathia was tremendous until the 5th inning.

The highlight for me was Pedroia hitting a 2-run homer. Pedey rules!

Off to sleep now.

Hey Jen, if you come on and read this, is there anything you want to correct about earlier posts?

The local newspaper ran a story about the game. I don't know what the editors were thinking though. The picture that ran with the story showed two Yankees doing a fist bump. I would think that they would have run a picture of a home team player for a season opener. Perhaps the staff at the paper should be given a geography lesson on where Fenway Park is.

I think you should cut the editors some slack, since there is a reasonable chance that they have sold their souls to the Steinbrenner Devil like so many other people around the country who focus only on the Yankees.
