No Red Sox fans booed Papelbon, because anyone who would boo him isn’t a fan — he’s a fraud and an idiot.

And I don’t mean “idiot” the way Johnny Damon meant it.

Papelbon blew the game today. If someone wanted to boo, then so what? These are adults and I’m sure they’ll get over it.

From wikipedia: “Booing performers has a very long history, possibly to the days of ancient Greece, where audiences would boo bad performances and applaud good performances.”
—
Papelbon stunk today and had many “heart attack” closes all year long. Booing today was more than appropriate. He gets paid the big buck$ to save the game today and he didn’t. He failed miserably and the audience, each of whom paid a small fortune for tickets, parking and refreshments had EVERY right to express themselves however they pleased. Amazing Dan Kennedy that you want a law to allow reporters to use anonymous sources, but you bash paying fans from expressing themselves in public. Wow!

I agree with the crowd’s booing Pap, he underperformed this season, and his stats were misleading. His constant talk of getting his big payday has irritated me all year, and for him to even think he deserves it when he throws nothing but fastballs the entire 9th inning is just plain stupid. His stuff clearly wasn’t up to par, batters had figured him out all season (nothing but fastballs is quite predictable), and he blew one of the most important saves of his career. Had I been there, I’d have booed him too.

Fish: I’m pretty skeptical about a law that would protect reporters from having to identify their anonymous sources. I thought you knew that. If we’re going to have such a law, it has to protect not just presscard-carrying reporters but bloggers who are doing journalism. Try watching this:

http://www.beatthepress.org/episode/segment/592

Aside from that, I don’t see what one has to do with the other.

To be honest, I can go both ways on this. Sure, booing Papelbon was something to do, because he underperformed throughout the season, but you just cannot place all of the blame towards Pap over this loss. Remember: The whole team batted around .150 during this 3 game stretch. Does this win you ballgames? I think not.

If I, myself, was at the game, I would not have booed Papelbon, but booed the entire team. You can’t just look at this on the surface; you have to look at this deeper, team-wise. The Sox had the pieces to contend for their 3rd championship this decade, but they were not in place.

Sure, I’m a Red Sox fan, but I don’t single out one player to place the blame on, you know? The season was already over after the first two games, given the offensive situation.

I hope we don’t hear anymore threats from Papelbon on how he will leave the Sox if they don’t pay him “big money” and how he will sign with the Yankees if the they fork over the dough. Bard did his job – His stuff is electric. Wagner did as well minus the Youklis botched play at first. Good pitch-off by Papelbon to end the bleeding in the 8th, but how do you walk Figgins? The guy hadn’t been on base all series. Not a good performance overall and frankly not a good performance all year by papelbon’s standards. Watching Papelbon close this year has been like watching a high-wire act with no net and yesterday he fell off.

Hey he blew a game the sox had to win…it wouldnt have mattered who was out there anyway. They lost a game they shouldve won simple as that

The Boys on WEEI felt it was wrong to boooooo, But Papelbon never complains when he strikes out the side and We all Cheer?!?! The Booing(or Cheering) is for the Team! Only WEEI Radio Sports Experts would ‘spin’ their way…..for a talking point. Here are some more from the Sports Station without a brain……….

More Gems from WEEI: Mike Holly “This team is built for the playoffs”…….. Hey Mike was it not the Same avg team During the Same season ?!? Mike Holly “The Best one two punch in baseball”(refering to the starting pitching). How that work out for you? 3 and 0……….. this is something, that could have been mailed in and was by Boston.
Also, the National Leauge is AAA ball…………. Really, Mike……….. Well, when the Red Sox play in the World….ohooooh, that’s right they were beaten by the weak West Div American League Champs. Oooops.
Boston spend some money and buy someone and stop these insane John Smoltz Projects………..and you wonder why you are looking up at the Yankees, again ! OMGRich !

His stats were misleading Stefano? Are you okay?

Hey AJB… this isn’t fox… take your conservative political views, and leave them in your car when you come to the park.

Team game, team loss. Paps had plenty of help in losing the series. Sox had deficiencies all year at DH, shortstop, and catcher, and had only partly remedied them by playoff time. (At best, you could only call the Sox ‘average’, for the most part, at those spots.) The Sox also hurt most of the year (except when Youk played third) with a less-than-mobile third baseman. An inability to hold runners put men in scoring position constantly, especially during the Angels’ series. Nearly every walk or single became a double, and this put undue pressure on the starters.

It’s extraordinary that the Sox made the playoffs at all this year, actually. I never thought they phoned a game in, and I want to credit them for effort all around. They have specific fixes that need to be made at the positions listed above, and this means some hard choices this off-season.

Good – Outstanding performances ya cheer! Bad to worst performaces ya boo! So what is the problem? He stunk and he got booed. I booed the whole team the first two games as they did not play that well. So what’s the problem. When they played good to outstanding, I cheered. This game I cheered till the eight inning then booed. So what’s the problem? Grow up. The fans pay and have a right to approve or disapprove of one’s performance. If anything, the players should stand up and admit their bad performances and admit they deserved the boos and not whimper like little kids who go caught being bad, told that they were and then they would whimper that their feelings got hurt. Grow up…….Papalbon needs to learn some new pitches or even the Yankees will not take him.

I loved as much as you will receive carried out right here.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

ok thanks

Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

Great blog post, I’ve bookmarked this page and have a feeling I’ll be returning to it regularly.

Hello there, You’ve done a great job. I’ll definitely digg it and personally suggest to my friends. I am sure they’ll be benefited from this site.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.

Thank you for any other fantastic article. The place else could anybody get that kind of information in such an ideal means of writing? I have a presentation subsequent week, and I am on the look for such info.

If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.

Katy Perry is about to set a new record previously held by Michael Jackson.

Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

Lady Gaga cried for a full week the second she found out precisely how very well her most recently released album ended up selling. The singer was not able to keep her emotions in check due to the fact she was so overcome as a result of the upbeat response to her LP ‘Born This Way’ as soon as it was presented last month.

Good ¡V I should certainly pronounce, impressed with your site. I had no trouble navigating through all tabs as well as related information ended up being truly easy to do to access. I recently found what I hoped for before you know it at all. Reasonably unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or something, site theme . a tones way for your customer to communicate. Excellent task..

On topic comments please!

Ah, I find the actual fact has limitless debatable points. I don’t need to argue with you here, but I’ve my own opinions as well. Anyway, you probably did an important job in writing the put up, and would like to praise you for the onerous work. Sustain with the nice job!

I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

Sorry for the huge review, but I’m really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it’s the right choice for you.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

The next time I read a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as a lot as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to learn, but I really thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you may repair if you werent too busy searching for attention.
