well I am just a bit of a RED SOX homer, but that has nothing to do with the play
a bit of irony tonight ::
Schilling Gm 6
Schilling Div Series
Schilling gm6 of ALDS -Red Sox losing 3-2
Schilling postseason monster:monsters-
Red Sox @ Fenway in postseason are strong
and this was 3 yrs ago
to the day ---- to the fukkking day --
The Bloody Sock legend became exactly that
you dont think Schill dont know that
he does and will be nasty tonight
showing the vet magic that keeps him going year after year
( ok now the homer shit is starting)
i am out
I would gladly pound the -129 line ive got online, but I made a 3 unit s/u bet with my friend, so Ill still post it as a play, but -129, not the even $$ i am getting
I like my line better anyway
RED SOX -129( even $$ with a Red Sox hater vs a Red Sox homer) ml 5 units-
as soon as a few football plays pay off, I am going to add 2 units to the Sox ml at -129 to make it a total 5 unit MAX PLAY for me
as this is as solid a spot as it can get
and then to top it off all off, and this makes me feel even better
have a read on this post from another poster in another forum:
To my buddy's dad, lifelong Bosox fan, who passed away 3 years ago on this day.
Yeterday, met up with the lad's at the local after a long day at work, for some food and drink. After the gang had gone home, my friend and I were left to discuss the weekends plays, which turned to basball, and he told me about the night his father passed away.
His dad was hopitalized, slipping in and out of a coma, mom would be bedside during the day, and he and his brother would come after work to spend the evening with the old man, and watch the baseball playoffs together on the tiny little black and white hopital-issue tv.
It was October 20, 2004 the infamous "bloody sock" night when Schilling won game 6 of the ALCS pitching on a torn ankle tendon with blood seeping out of his sock, he held New York to one run and four hits over seven innings as Boston won 4-2 at Yankee Stadium. The Red Sox went on to win Game 7, completing the only comeback from an 0-3 series deficit in major league history and setting the stage for the franchise's first World Series title since 1918.
As my friend and his brother spent their last night with their dad drifting in and out of consciousness, the old man woke up halfway through the game, to ask if Schilling was still throwing. "Yeah dad, he's still hanging in there."
The old boy closed his eyes, and slipped back into his sleep, and left this world later that night.
As I sat digesting the story, my buddy mentioned that he had never told anyone, or even talked with his brother about that night since, and I could tell it was a wonderful memory. Another round was ordered, and the plan was hatched to make a play in honour of the old man. "It just feels right" he said, "same day, same pitcher, same game 6."
"Nickel for each of us, and a nickel for my brother, who I'm not even gonna tell." he said.
"I'm in."
I like the play a lot more knowing I got the ol man in my corner too !!!!:fatboy:
