Should People Who Don’t Worry About the Sox In April Start Worrying?

Every year around this time we get the same emails from idiots. Hey Pres why don’t you blog about the Red Sox every second of every day? I thought this was a hardcore Sports website. I thought you were like WEEI or Sons of Sam Horn where all you do is sit around all day and talk about every little fucking detail and blow everything out of proportion for 162 games a year because you have no life. Stop partying at Stoolapalooza with smoking hot college chicks and watch every second of April baseball god damn it!
Well newflash. That’s not me. That’s not the Stool. Never has been never will be. I’ll watch American Idol over April Sox games every day of the week and twice on Sunday. I know that makes some people hate me, but I don’t care. Just shut your mouth and keep reading. Bottomline is that baseball is just too long of a season to get all worked up on game 13. Don’t get me wrong I still keep up to date and obviously know what’s happening, but I just don’t base my life around it. You can’t. Only nutbags do that.
Now having said all that this season is getting fucking hot fast huh? Like even guys like me who don’t really start paying serious attention till after the allstar break are starting to be like what the fuck? 5 Straight losses? 1-6 at home? And that wouldn’t even bother me if it weren’t for the fact that both the Drays and the Yankees are off to torrid starts. That’s the scary part. Like sure we’re playing like dog mess right now, but anybody who doesn’t think the Sox are still going to win 90 wins or so is an idiot. Our pitching is just too good. Everything always equals out in baseball and we have too many proven veterans who when it’s all said and done will get their numbers just like they do every year. It’s just that this isn’t your Grandparent’s AL East anymore. Tampa is for real now so it’s not like 90 wins is an automatic playoff berth anymore. So here I am in fucking April starting to scoreboard watch. It sucks. That’s not how baseball is meant to be enjoyed. It’s not supposed to be a 162 game pressure cooker. You’re supposed to enjoy the weather, have some beers and just relax. Now I can’t do that and I’m bullshit.
Do people feel the same way I do think I’m just falling into the Boston media trap of overreacting to everything?
Vote 1 for even non psycho Red Sox fans be very worried right now and 10 for it’s fucking April bro relax.



Last thing on this topic and then its back to strictly making fun of pres and talking sports. Pres Im not saying that your glory hole known as sam adams isn’t selling places out. I was saying that chris webby is not only playing to the college style but he has the backing of a legit rap mogul in Damian Dash and many others. He isn’t the one calling for a battle its other people that want to see it because they know your guys a joke in terms of claiming he raps. Yes your kid can sell out a college arena. Thats awesome so did the likes of 98 degrees and other pop musicians. I don’t really give a fuck. Im just spreading the info that if people do like rap instead of pop then webby is legit.
Now moving on from that how bout pres actually writing a blog about how much the sox have been sucking. What old timer after two days of drinking you forget that your blog is boston barstoolSPORTS. Only took a week. And how bout Garnett getting suspending at least let JT writing his long babble.

Amen. I’ll take it a step further and proclaim that baseball sucks balls…unless you’re at the game and drinking 60 beers on a nice Sunny day, then it sucks
You know how I know your gay?
“I’ll watch American Idol over April Sox games every day of the week and twice on Sunday.”
I know gay guys that hang out with smoking hot college chicks too. Have fun chatting about fashion and Adam Lambert, homo

I think I am far more sick of people talking about other rappers “skills” than I am sick of Sam Adams. Fucking relax, the whole genre is ear vomit.
still early for the sox, but they are playing like garbage. i hated the cameron signing. lets hope for adrian. yo adrrrriiiiiiiaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnn!
No shit, enough with all this rap crap, for the love of god.
Why can’t everyone just tip their cap to EP for putting together a successful college tour and move on.
Go Sox!
I’m worried. Mike Cameron looks old as shit, Marco looks like he’s never fielded a grounder before and the only guy on the team with any power is our 5’8″ giant killer. I guess its time to hope and pray that we get Adrian because those offensive concerns of the preseason look like they’re quite real. I would give up Ellsbury for AGonz any day. But it’d be nice to see Jacoby stay.
Perks we’re exactly on the same page and I read what you were talking about.
Any EP great post on this one right here, this is vintage you and what we all wanted. Nobody was questioning your skills but wait till july comes around and its time to make those big trades, then players better start picking shit up. The Yankees are already planning their trades out right now.
These guys are just old and playing out their contracts right now. Pitching will pick up most likely, but the rest of the guys are who they are. Shouldn’t be a lot of surprises here when they’re at home late September/October.
the pitching has been there – for the first few innings. lester sucks in april over the last few years but once it warms up he does too. beckett has been solid and lackey has been a little shaky. clay was solid his last outing. the offense will come around, and the defense will be there soon enough.
dont worry, be manny
Thanks for saying it, GymGear.
“I’ll watch American Idol over April Sox games every day of the week and twice on Sunday.”
That’s just plain fucked up, EP. Get some help.
El Pres is kind of a pussy huh?
Who is really suprised at the Red Sox sucking right now? They have a jack shit offense and good pitching at best. Wakefield is crap, Matsusaka has been on the road to suck ever since the WBC and Josh Beckett is not what he used to be. Welcome to the new AL east
Tampa VS Yankees, we didn’t spend enough in the offseason, DEAL WITH IT!!!!!
Like I give a shit who Chris Webby is… please just let pres get his money and end this thing so he can get back to business. Let em work, let em live.
I was at the game yesterday, I watch 80% of the games, and was sickend at how the Rays looked like a team in the playoff hunt in Sept and the Sox looked like a bunch of guys playing pick up softball after a Sunday afternoon of dinking and BBQ. E-7? Really Hermida? Hall in CF tripping on the warning track? Batters (not just Pappi) 1-2 seconds behind low 90 MHP fast balls? I was like 8 beers into the 6th and ppl were leaving. The biggest cheer was When Tek came from the bullpen to the dugout. We need to do something to right the ship, or it could ba a Long season.
I am pretty sure i stopped reading when it said to “shut the fuck and keep reading”. Hey prez, why don’t you stop blowin “sammy I dont know my skin color adams” and start gettin back to the vintage stool. This site has been fuckin bogus ever since you brought that retard aboard.
PS- I go to school down here in Conn. I refused to go to toad’s. And from what I heard it wasn’t much to be at anyways. I had a much better sunday night gettin a BJ from my gf. But i am sure sam enjoyed your BJ as well.
dauber,
sure it wasn’t because you couldn’t get a ticket? Sold out mofo. Sure you stopped reading. That’s why your commenting though. I own you. You’re my little bitch. Deal with it
Anyone who is worried about the Red Sox pitching staff is out of their tree. Lester is a young pitcher still, and has always come out of the gate slow. No worries there. Beckett and Lackey, to me anyways, are the same animal: mid to high 3′s in ERA by the end of the year. Which in the AL is better than most. So stop complaining about starters because, as El Pres said, they will get their numbers and shit will even out.
The real concern?
David Ortiz is so fucking horrible that he somehow masks the fact that JD Drew has been even worse. These two have literally struck out in almost half of their AB’s. The bottom of our order is not strong, so if the late middle of the order is atrocious we simply won’t score runs.
No way Pedroia can carry this offense. He already has been (five home runs, high .300 batting average) and the sox are 4-9.
So wait and see if Drew and Ortiz can at least sort of right their respective ships. Because the other shit bums in the bottom of the order don’t really have much upside to even hope for.
Oh and by the way….when your main complaint is being unable to score runs, missing your leadoff man who stole 70 bases and was near the tops in runs scored last year certainly isn’t doing you any favors.
haha holy shit that was way longer than I thought it was going to be….my apologies I feel like a douche.
Baseball is without a doubt the gayest of all sports. If you’re not sitting at a game drinking, it’s like watching paint dry….UNLESS you have some skin in the game, right EP?
I don’t live in Boston nor do I give a shit about the Sox but EP has the power to turn the season around by betting against the Sox every game and harnessing the Power of the Mush.
Also, stfu about not caring about baseball in April. If the Sox were 10-3 right now you wouldn’t shut your fucking mouth about it and you know it. Hypocrite.

WHOOOAAA BLOW JOBS!!!!! I had a better sunday starting to drink at 2, drinking all day, going to toads where there were a ridiculous amount of hot girls. Concert itself was alright… but that really wasn’t the point of going from the beginning now was it?
Baseball is just lame. Baseball in April is beyond lame.
The white college kids playing ghetto homies listening to the white “pop rap” artists is worth all of the exposure. Listening to Chad say “know what I’m sayin”, “you down wit dat?”, “holla atcha”, etc is just pure gold.
Trains,
I don’t agree with Brian Daubach’s statement.
But I’m not sure where you are going with your response? Is your premise “Blow jobs aren’t that sweet”? Because that’s how it reads. Maybe you’ve just gotten all teeth?

Listen, I love blow jobs as much as the next guy… but his response reeked of “Yahh brahh… got a blow job…. pretty sweet brah.”
If you have a girlfriend, she will most likely give you a blow job on monday, tuesday, or wednesday if properly prompted. Therefore, to use an excuse such as “chilled in and got a BJ” instead of day drank on a sunny 65 degree day until the point of black out and then went to a concert literally shitting out smokeshows… I’m going to call you out.
Trains, drinking > BJ’s? May be time to seek help because that’s some serious alcoholic shit right there.
I think we’ve found the crux of the issue. My last steady girlfriend was a year ago, so I’m out there working for every BJ I get. I’m like Trot Nixon and you are like A-Rod with a girlfriend blowing you every night. Taken in that context, what you said makes sense.
Trains, ElPres has to get like 50 thousand Facebook followers to get a blowie.
Pres,
Please don’t mention how you would watch American Idol over an April Sox game, and then refer to the Red Sox as “we”. Thanks

Booze over BJ’s on a singular basis. One time only. As in… I’d rather go day drink in my senior year of college with 2 weeks to go and get a blow job on Monday. College winding down… I think I got my priorities straight with hardcore boozing
And The Viking wins the blow job discussion by making, by far, the best point.
Bubbles, so you are saying that you would rather go watch a lame white rapper scream and yell and sound shitty VS. sit in and get a nice BJ? Maybe it is just me.
I would rather be the doorman for this show. Outside doorman. That way you get all the smokes, but none of the Sam Adams.

Yes, the plane is going down in Boston. And we love it…the 4 game bitch slap was a thing of beauty, even if it was in April. I’d ask the obligatory “How’s my ass taste?” but reality is your head is still down there going at it so you wouldn’t be able to respond anyway. That’s what happens when you’re in the Cellar, so get used to it.
I wish I could have witnessed first hand the writers block El Pres went through over 3 days on how he was going to address the obvious issues here. I would love to see all the different blog entries he tried writing over 3 days only to ultimately dump them, because he knew what ever he did was either going to require him to dig seep and swallow pride and admit that the Sox are no longer The Sox, or pass it off like he doesn’t care which of course damages his ‘street cred” of a true Boston Fan. Well, looks like he found a way to wiggle out of it which was to pose the question back to the readership. Touch the issues, but not take a stand.
Take note of this Want To Be Bloggers, that’s what makes El Pres, El Pres. He battled with it but found a way out. He pulled out the ole “White Dude Dancing” and “Strange Cat” YouTube to keep the stoolies entertained while he struggled with the response, but he got it done. Hat’s off to you.
So, Time for Barstool Tampa? Not sure how you would do Smokeshow of the day, because those chicks are a dime a dozen throughout Florida so that would be nothing special.
See you losers next time you come up for air, you can tell me how my ass tastes then.
American Idol over Baseball…what the fuck?
Did Pres really call them the Drays? Is it 2006?
East Coast Sucks
A) Shut up.
B) Florida IS on the East Coast
C) Shut the fuck up.
D) When you trade Crawford and Pena at the break and you got Longoria and a bag of balls in the middle of your lineup don’t come crying to me
