Old limping around the field Buckner, shouldn't have been in the game. All season long, mop-stick manager Joe Morgan pulled Buck and inserted Dave Stapleton for defense and of course that time he opts not......................................well you know the rest of the story.

BTW........................Phuck'TheSaux. :finger:

I still don't understand everyone blaming Buckner...

1. The score was tied when the ball went through his legs (Sox were not winning) so that Sox were AT BEST 50% to win the game.

2. Buckner would probably not have beaten Mookie to the bag anyway.

3. Schiraldi threw meatballs to Carter, Mitchell and Knight and couldn't get the third out.

4. Bob Stanley came in and promptly wildpitched in the tying run (prior to Buckner's miscue).

5. Sox were tied with Mets in game 7 (after having a 3 run lead). Schiraldi came in with the score tied and gave up 3 runs in 1/3 of an inning including a gopherball to Ray Knight for the go ahead run.

6. SCHIRALDI AND STANLEY WERE THE GOATS, NOT BUCKNER. HE HAS GOTTEN THE BIGGEST HOSEJOB IN BASEBALL HISTORY FROM ALL THE IGNORANT FANS, WRITERS AND COMMENTATORS.

Miked429: Thanks for that, your right it was Johnny Mac.

Wasn't it Joe Morgan who had Paul Burton on the hill,trying to beat Cincy in game 7. If it was, he sucked too. :guillotin

That's because the Sox fans are scum. Buckner is maybe 15% responsible for them losing the W.S. Maybe less.

But a city that treats a player like that for essentially no reason at all = scum.

The other night Todd Walker was on ESPN radio and the guy said.... "It's like when your girlfriend breaks up with you... You leave on good terms, you wish her the best, etc... But when you see her with someone else and she's happy... You're miserable."

Todd Walker said.... "yep, that's how it feels not playing for the redsox this year" LOL.

And...I bet Nomar (and anyone else not on that team this year) feels the same way.
