Sox vs. Pats - New England Patriots Forums

Sox and Yankees start at 8:00 tomorrow.

Pats and Chargers at 8:30.

Normally this would be a no brainer for me, but there's a possibility my girlfriend is getting her hands on Sox tickets. And it's Clemens vs. Schilling, not to mention a pretty important game.

Do I go to the Sox game, or watch the Pats on TV?

Usually the NFL tries to stay away from such conflicts... I was very surprised when I saw the schedule and it had the Pats and Chargers playing do late and on a day with a Sox/Yankees match-up.

In all honesty, if it was a girl, I'd tell you to skip the game ala Good Will Hunting... but, since its not, I'd say go, but bring your cell phone and check the score regularly.....

I think about the only Sox game I;d take over any Patriots game would be a world series clincher.

Schilling vs. Clemens, with Schilling having a chance to all but bury the Yankee's division title chances. Go enjoy the Red Sox game live.

The Yankees are buried anyways with the Sox winning tonight.

8pm tomorrow my TV will be turned to the Pats so I can watch them smack the Chargers in their big mouths.

Girlfriend who is lenient with the punani: stay home for Pats / Girlfriend who is pround of the tickets: go.

If you had DVR, you could record the game and watch it. Unfortunately, the game's in Boston - you're going to know who wins before you get home, which kind of ruins it.

I'd have to choose Sox live over Pats on TV. You'll have an opportunity to jeer the Antichrist in what may be his last game at Fenway.

If you regularly go to Sox games and it won't be special then you should stay home. If you only get to a couple games a year I'd say go.

You won't be able to avoid the result of NE-SD if you go, but football is fun to watch even if you know the result.

My brother gave up world series game 2 tickets (he won 2 on the radio) to go to the pats vs the jets on one of those nose bleed bus trips that a bunch of us had already bought tickets for.

He did get $800 for them, but he probably could have tripled that at the door.
