Honestly, it is a big deal. I’m a sox fan from Alabama and I knew it had been 86 years. He’s a Republican John Kerry; I’m telling you folks. Too slik by half! Just like when John Kerry could catch the football or was wind surfing or riding in those spedos. Too slik!

Honestly, I don’t think this is that big of a deal.. a slight slip of the tongue trying to force a joke. What was offensive was when Kerry spent a week in a Red Sox hat, and when asked who his favorite Red Sox was, he stated emphatically “Manny Ortiz”. To this day, I’m still not sure who Manny Ortiz is… perhaps a bat boy?

At least he didn’t say his favorite player was Manny Ortiz! (John Kerry said that in 2004…a combination of Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz)

You’re giving Kerry too much credit. He said “Manny Ortez.”

Sox rock.

And Mitt should know better… but hardly a deal breaker.

Ignorance truely must be bliss…… how many World Series have Los Metinos De Nueva York won since 86?

Glad this thread has turned into an attack on illegal immigration. Which Mets are in the country illegally?

Pffffffffffftttttttttt……I’m still waiting for the Rangers to get out of Little League. Looks like it will be 86-87 years here too.

I’m a Mets fan, so the only number regarding the Bosox that means anything to me is 1986.

Yeah, to me, 86 is the year of Bill Buckner.

That doesn’t mean anything. There are plenty of rich people here in Toronto who hold season tickets for Leafs games (hockey.) They almost never attend. And when they do, they just use the opportunity to mingle among themselves to talk business.

And might I add, surrounded by regular Joes with jeans and sox shirts on.

Guys this is getting stupid.

Romney’s seats were right behind the catcher’s right shoulder, about 15 rows up. You could see him at many games.

Not that I expect a friggin medal but if you go look at last night’s thread I pointed it out 15 or 16 seconds after he said it.

Congratulations. Another nitpick at Mitt.

One day he’s “too perfect” next day a “math error” about a stinkin’ baseball team causes some to denounce their support!

Mitt is actually a season ticket holder with the Red Sox, if memory serves.
