That's right, a spork.

This team is a bust!

They can't even beat the lowly O's and a rookie pitcher. What's wrong with them? Coma should have taken Buchholz out of the game in the second before the game was out of reach. What an idiot!
Now they're in 4th place, and they'll never catch the Yankees. Don't they realize that a game in April counts the same as a game in September? Make andrewmitch GM! He would light a fire under their sorry azzes and get them to play hard in every game like those overpaid bums are supposed to!

Spork.
Spork?

Is that kosher?

I think it is because they used to provide them at the model Seders I attended at Hebrew School. We used them as catapults for launching pieces of hard-boiled egg across the room.
At my own Seder we'd have the Brothers Krackamatzah and then search for the Kofi Annan after the meal.

I have in-laws around the globe who are still picking horse radish out of their ears.
I, too, was quite good with that spork!

Sporks do make excellent catapults. A rubber band and a broken paper clip inflicts more damage though...

Take a chill they are 3 game out with 140 games to play. They haven't even played what anyone considers to be an "A" game, and they are still in it. Francona is a great manager has a feeling for what the players need, and is not afraid to do things that are not popular, with all the other managers in Boston.

The game ended 4-1 , not exactly out of reach. This offense will get rolling and I will wager that games where they hold opponents to 4 runs the Sox will wil 75-80% of those games

Looks like sarcasm and mocking don't play in BDC Peoria.
Now we know why the forum parrots who squawk "Tito's wrong every time", and "Jake is terrible" are taken seriously over and over, not even a "Are you serious?" or a "You are kidding, right?"

The part about catapulting the hard-boiled egg across the Seder table was true. I was aiming for the foreheads of my classmates - right between the eyes. I would have targeted andrewmitch if he were in my classroom.
The weapon.

The ammunition.

ADG :
Perhaps the biggest bust in the history of baseball, this team has no shot of doing anything.
Lackey tomorrow.
At the trade deadline, Ortiz, Drew and Papelbon will all be gone.
