People have been calling him "Tony" by mistake for years...it's probably because of his last name having the "cona" in it.SchoolGirlHeart wrote:BASTARD Taking advantage of a poor, overtired Red Sox Fan.....

Okay, one error.... I made an error..... the Idiots can overcome one error by an idiot fan, right???
)You know what I think the Yankees' biggest problem is? Joe Torre. Seriously, look at him when he's sitting in the dugout. He has no fire, most of the time he looks like he's taking a nap. If the team takes its cue from the manager and they're just as laid back as he is they were probably thinking "We're the NY f'n Yankees, we're not worried about anything." Until it was too late.SchoolGirlHeart wrote:SHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!IsleReef wrote:Just a hypothetical......,,,,,,,,,,, but....... What if the Cards were to pull off 4 in a row????????
But, see, the Red Sox realize this is always possible, so they won't be overconfident..... the Yankees never imagined, in their wildest nightmares........
No one really imagined it...... But I will honestly say that the Boston Red Sox will give joy to their fans for the first time in their lives....... That of course does not include fans who are still alive who witnessed their 1918 series win.......SchoolGirlHeart wrote:SHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!IsleReef wrote:Just a hypothetical......,,,,,,,,,,, but.......

(actually, Bill Buckner has dealt with the whole thing way better than the rest of us.... he and Mookie Wilson have made appearances together, both signing the picture....
and if it truly is that one ground ball, what a shame and a black eye for baseball..... he wasn't the only one who made a mistake that day; his was just a little more glaring.....CaptainP wrote:WHy is Bill Buckner not in the Hall Of Fame?
Answer: ONE GROUND BALL.
His numbers were good enough, but he got very few votes.
His only job is to keep the egos in check. That's it. And he's good at it. Their talent should be enough to win, otherwise.LIPH wrote:You know what I think the Yankees' biggest problem is? Joe Torre.

WHat I said is a bit of an exaggeration. His numbers were very good. Were they HOF worthy? Maybe. But the number of votes he got was not worthy of the career he had.SchoolGirlHeart wrote:and if it truly is that one ground ball, what a shame and a black eye for baseball..... he wasn't the only one who made a mistake that day; his was just a little more glaring.....CaptainP wrote:WHy is Bill Buckner not in the Hall Of Fame?

the party in heaven is about to start..... my grandfather was at the 1918 World Series..... my other grandfather wasn't; he was in the Navy, having enlisted to fight WWI.IsleReef wrote:No one really imagined it......

Yeah, I know what your saying....... I miss my grandparents, they were the best...... Married 65 years, lived to their early 90's and were just good people...... I wish sometimes I could pick up the phone to talk with them...... They passed away around 5-6 years ago and I still have not removed their phone number from my speed dial......... So for your's, may the Red Sox pull it off...............SchoolGirlHeart wrote:and that's truly a shame.......CaptainP wrote:WHat I said is a bit of an exaggeration. His numbers were very good.
