Hey can anyone give me some good web sites for Red Sox and baseball news etc other than the standard mlb.com, usatoday and fox sports sites ????

living in Australia I need to get all my baseball news from the net rather than rely on any of the local media outlets...any good info would be great..

AussieMat

P.S

Vtsox, you might be right about pedro providing stability...burkett pitching 6 stron innings is nearly unheard of !!!

My first stop in the morning is always www.boston.com/sports/redsox -- they have good coverage, though you'll have to put up with Shaughnessy's sarcastic bellyaching and lots of gloom and doom stuff. They have a service you can subscribe to that gives you email game recaps, live chats, Q&A with the writers, etc. There's also www.bostonherald.com and www.projo.com. You might try www.newredsox.com , although I find their editorializing only slightly less nauseating than that on boston.com. There's also www.redsoxdiehard.com, which isn't news, but is full of stories and fan lore ("You know you're a diehard when..." goes on for PAGES). There's also www.theremyreport.com, which is fun to check out.

Hope this helps!

I couldn't let that one go unused.

Back on topic, Sporting News has changed its online format, and I can't even figure out where their printed articles are linked. However, here's their new BoSox page, as done by Fox Sports:

Hello, Matt!!

I would be honored if you would use our site to track the Sox from Down Under:

We try to be a one-stop Red Sox site: game summaries,media links, links to other Sox sites, stats, etc.

bostondirtdogs.comUsed to be a fan of bostondirtdogs.com until you see stuff like this:

http://www.bostonsportsmedia.com/archives/002706.php

Article stated that Nomar was on the juice and wouldn't accept a World Series ring. I love the Sox more than I love Nomar, but he's a good guy and his reputation shouldn't be tarnished by having his masculinity challenged by calling him "Mr. Hamm".

Silva, the blogger for bostondirtdogs, in my opinion, is lewd, politically partisan, and now inaccurate. I love baseball humor, even if it's considered distasteful. But with his legitmacy having been acquired by the Boston Herald, he I agree with the posted article that there be some standards of professionalism followed by legitimate reporters.

I gave up on bostondirtdogs a LONG time ago. Bitter, sarcastic, angry, inciteful, even hateful writing bout the team they profess to support? No thanks. They make Shaughnessy sound like Pollyanna. It's enough to gag a goat.

Help us (Baseball Fever) help you.

This is a Boston Red Sox News (http://baseball-almanac.com/news/boston_red_sox_news.shtml) feed. It is active which means I can pull news feeds from hundreds upon hundreds of sources and integrate them into that page so you can have a single page with all kinds of news feeds at your fingertips. Just point out RSS feeds and we'll put in the links which makes it easy to have a single bookmarked page that allows you to surf out and get the news you want from countless other pages...

We have one of these for all teams and a general MLB Baseball News (http://baseball-almanac.com/baseball_news.shtml) one as well...

Great pizza and cheese steaks. Owned by a big Red Sox fan, who is from Boston. They offer in person updates of Red Sox games, but sorry no internet updates, which is what this thread is all about.

I usually start at http://startri.com/sports/Sports.html as they have a lot of stories from many of the different New England papers on one site.

I also check out their main (http://www.startri.com) page for a pretty entertaining way to read Rhode Island and Southern Mass news.

They also have a pretty funny offbeat section and the only site that I know that has a section for all the local crime news.

This isn't really a news site, but I thought folks might be interested. I was trying to come up with a way to remember a combination on the lock I just put on my storage shed and I wanted to remember it by using great Sox players. Anyway this is pretty nifty site that is updated through the current lineup (I think):

Dirt Dogs is my choice. The Red Sox are a worthy of a gossip style page this good.

After growing up in Atlanta where malaise is the name of the game when it comes to baseball, it's nice to wake up to reactionary, angry, wild coverage of my favorite team. It's like the Drudge Report for the Red Sox.

Sam Horn is good for 'serious' discussions.
