The short attention span is really getting a workout here folks.

Christ, I finally get to sit down and watch a playoff game and this damn Bosox Tribe game is going on 4 damn hours for 9 innings...and there tied. You would think the "every pitch is an epic" Yankees are playing. This is rediculous. Every pitch, Papelbon walks around the mound, gets his footing just right, rubs up the ball, gets his footing just right, gets his glove on extra tight, adjust his footing,looks to the plate just right then throws a ball.

I love it when the batter has to adjust his gloves after taking a pitch.YOU DIDNT EVEN SWING! Stay in the damn box and demand the pitches come faster!.

This game is going so long that I think Tim McCarver needs a nap. Somebody from FOX fire that guy,I cant stand him,hes only slightly better then Pinella in the booth.

I cant drink enough bad wine to make this game interesting anymore,Ive got to get to bed...and I live on the west coast!

Out

And I qoute Joe Buck "4 hours, 21 minutes and were going to extra innings".

I'm kinda getting sick of my wife telling me Youklis' Goatee looks like the female private area, or to quote her,"His face looks like a hairy pussy". Other observations from the wife, Mike Lowells chin is funny looking,Manny Riveras hair looked better shorter,he looks like a woman now.She thinks the tribes third baseman has a nice beard and is questioning whether I can grow one that nice. I of course say yes,to wit she wont let me prove it.

That game was definitely a test of a TV viewer's patience. I fell asleep on the couch after the first Gagne walk. Next thing I know, I roll over to check the clock and it was 3:30 and Fox was showing an infomercial. Would it have killed FOX to start that game earlier than 8:00 last night? I pretty much was ready to call it a night after the late hockey games were done and this game was just getting through 9 innings. Every pitch is important in the postseason...I get that but it had to be a very long night if you were sitting in the Fens last night.

Pitchers are the biggest problem. That's why I like watching Jake Peavy pitch. No fooling around there at all. He's usually waiting for the batter to be ready.

I think the one foot in the batter's box rule is great. All this glove adjusting and other posing by batters sucks.

The only other thing I can think of is to get rid of the seventh inning stretch. Especially at Yankme Stadium. I'm sick and tired of having to watch that fat bald freak with the unnatural high voice sing "God Bless America".

I don't know how slow he was last night but the Tigers had gotten on Rafael Betancourt's case about his slow work on the mound. I know during one game early in the season they had an ump clock his time between pitches. He threw two innings yesterday...I'm sure he took a lot longer than the average pitcher did last night.

pitchers slow down for a good reason. taking more time throws off their rythym, but, imo, it throws off the batter's more.

MLB should do something about it. Tell the batter that once he is in the box, he has to stay there. fukk calling time and stepping out. and make the pitcher pitch, one fukking pitch after the other. give him enough time to wave off the catcher once or twice, but no more.

and somebody needs to surgically stich nomah's fukkking gloves on. keeeerist, i hate watching that fag. wonder how long he takes to wear out the velcro?
