Sell Out Streak
After reading the article in the Globe today about the Red Sox sell-out streak I perused the many, many comments that followed it. Finally I hit upon one that pretty much summed up my thoughts on it so kudos to this guy:
dobin wrote:OK - only read 2 pages worth of comments (it’s one of those time I wished the globe had a reply feature in their comments). I can’t believe what I’m hearing from some so called “fans”. This ownership group you have so much distain for has been able to buy the team from a terrible group of owners, keep the park, refurbish the park, win 2 (TWO!!!!!!) WS Champonships, put a good, if not great, team on the field each year while bringing in TONS of tax revenue and creating TONS of jobs for Boston. So if I read this correctly, here is what the so called fans want:
- an all-star player at each position and each pitcher in the rotation and bullpen
- no injuries ever at all (all injuries are the fault of ownership)
- a manager that wins 162 games per year
- tickets that cost $1 each for every seat
- free parking
- free beer
- no entertainment between innings
- free food
- fans that sit in the bleachers get paid to attend the games
I’m sure I can think of many more. People, it is a freaking game that is for our entertainment. I am entertained every time I watch (and I pay for MLB.TV each year and only watch the Sox) whether they win or lose. Why, because for 3-4 hours each night from April to October I can forget the amount of debit I’m in, whether my kids will grow up OK, if I will have a job tomorrow. I think about those things and many more for the other 12-13 hours of the day I’m awake. It could be worse, alot worse…Posted on May 4, 2012 with 9 notes

Victor Martinez, who was originally expected to miss the entire 2012 season, visited the Tigers clubhouse on Tuesday.
When asked how it felt to be back with the team, Martinez said, “Oh, it feels GREAT. Oh, man, I can’t tell you. I’m happy. Everybody wants to be part of this. This is something special that you guys are seeing. I really miss to be out, not be part of it.”
Then when asked if he thinks the Tigers are struggling without him, he said, “Well … I don’t think so. Good players, man. There’s too many good players to be depending on one or two. This is a team, just like last year. We had a great team, and we did it together. Every team struggles at some point … Just stay together… That’s why it’s teamwork. You stay together, and you come out of it together.”

I always say, when I die and go to heaven, I’m going to have an 11-year-old daughter and a new cat and I’m going to be in the middle of a book. I’m just trying to get there.

Criticism or Candor?
I still think calling your players out in the media is rude and unproductive. Be honest in the clubhouse face to face. Telling the media your pitcher did a bad job is like telling friends of a friend that her new haircut looks bad and then saying that you’re just being honest.

That’s the part of the game that is fun for me, that I really thrive on,” he said. “The special off-the-field, the things you don’t see in the stat line. The chess match between the two, the hitter and the pitcher. That’s fun, that’s stuff that you can prepare for every day. And no matter what you’re feeling like physically, that’s something that you can handle on a daily basis.
