    read this morning that last night was the first game ending pick off in the playoffs...ever. uehara and napoli timed it right i guess the scouting report has him doing a little hop just before the pitch... they timed the pickoff, to exactly when he hopped.

    Games are interesting though. If the sox win, Ortiz -unless he goes into a slump, will get mvp, he is hitting .727 for the world series currently, and has gotten either a hit, hr or walk his last seven at bats.

    The thing with the60 minutes is.. At the point of the denial, they had never released all the details for the sharing, and scrapped the plan so they could say that the sharing plan came with a free night with a porn star and no one could prove them wrong.

    My take, opinion only, who is ultimately at fault currently for the website fiasco? That would be the idiot who let it go live. That would be the government, I have not followed the issue that much since I live in MA, but the guys programming the site s should have said that it was not ready...

    surprised no one has mentioned game 1 tonite so far. ortiz got robbed of a grand slam in the 2nd inning. ~2 feet longer and he wouldna caught it over the wall. Lester is pitching very well. wainwright settled down after the rough start Red Sox up 5-0 top of the 6th.
