Oh when will they ever learn ? oh when will they ever learn ?
Where have all the bloggers gone? long time passing .

We once had sox fans true and bold . and all the sox news they foretold.
Oh when will they ever learn ? when will they ever learn?

Where has Jed the Poet gone? Long time ago.
He told us of our sox in rhyme , Jed could get you every time
Oh when will they ever learn ? When will they ever learn ?
Where has good ole Jester gone ? Long time passing
Where has good ole Jester gone ? Long time ago
He gave you facts right to the point, but many said to leave this joint .
Oh when will they ever learn ? When will they ever learn .
Yes we once had more traffic to this site in a single day than it now sees in a week , and not just the sox site but all the tru fan sites combined , we had bloggers, we had poets, we had news, and yes we even had controversy , we tried to homogenize the site and mix all fans together in a non offensive and gentile site.
But in doing so something was lost , the spirit was lost and now it is a ghost of its former self .
Remember difference is the spice of life , no one wants a homogenized sterilized and germ free society .
A wise man once said , “ If it ain’t broke don’t fix it, “
But we went ahead and fixed it anyway, and the site has withered to a ghost of it's fromer self.
Oh when will we ever learn? when will we ever learn ?

The site is slow and the only people that really post anything are the ones that are getting paid to do so...don't get me wrong, they write outstanding pieces but I can get outstanding writing on better sites that have actual "insiders". I miss the conversations, the blogs and just checking in on friends but it isn't worth it on here any more...I do not miss the RSMers that gave the entire group a bad name...but I do miss MOST RSMers! Good piece Bro Ron...it is sad, but they thought that it was time for a change and it is their site to ruin if they wish. ...View More...View Less

As I said earlier, Rev, Sawxheads started off as a site for fans -- intelligent ones -- to post blogs, and exchange ideas. It also promised to become a social website and could have done so. HOWEVER, the site become one that was focused on, and gave highlighted attention to those who were seeking careers in media; we all got pushed off into obscurity within the page; social meetups were stopped; and that was that.
But to give Rafe credit -- he tried to expand the concept beyond Red Sox followers. If you don't try, you do not have any chance of succeeding. ...View More...View Less
Well Rev, part of my time away from these pages that I loved before was taken away from me b/c I had some personal issues that I had to deal with... and still am. I never... EVER forgot about the many, many friends & ~RSM~ FAMILY members that I was very lucky/honored to make on these hollowed pages. I looked forward to coming here each & every day to share all things Boston Red Sox with all my friends & family. Over time, Sawxheads was disrupted & taken away from those of us who tried to keep the flame & spirit of things alive to the ones that mattered most. I check in from time to time, but the life that was here once is now long gone... and can never... EVER be brought back to us. I cherish & value the many, many friends & ~RSM~ family members that I was able to share time with... and look forward to being able to do it once again. Thank you Rev for making me really know what life used to be on these pages !!! ~RSM~ RLF ~ FOREVER !!! ...View More...View Less
