I get it because the Red Sox are no longer a sports team, but a “thing”, a soap opera that casual people tune into. Celtics and Bruins fans tend to be hardcore sports fans, not US Weekly readers.

In defense of the casual fan, people are not used to a 7th game, especially 2nd round, being on Sunday night on TNT. I don’t remember a 7th game not being on ABC or whatever broadcast network had the rights.

Jason is 100 percent correct. Orbway and his ilk will be all wall-to-wall Ortiz talk with some Mannygate stuff thrown in for good measure. Ugh!

Change the station, lower your blood pressure, and save some brain cells in the process.

All I know is that for the next two months the only conversation on sportsradio will be about what to do with David Ortiz. No B’s or C’s off-season plans, just Papi talk.

The home opener was actually in the middle of the afternoon on a Tuesday, because the scheduled opener on Monday got rained out.

How does the ratings system account for DVR’s? Because I didn’t watch the Sox home opener live, but I did tape it.

For a game that started at like 4pm right on a Monday? Makes no sense.
