"Josh has some real leadership qualities, but this time he didn't lead left, he didn't lead right, he led wrong." -- "One uniformed member of the team" said to Gordon Edes

"When things go bad, your true colors show and I was bothered by what was showing." -- Terry Francona on the gutless wonders

"An indifference by some players to conditioning. 'Gluttony,' one Sox executive called it, although he stopped after just one deadly sin... No clubhouse leadership. 'They don't need a leader,' one prominent Sox player said Friday. 'They need a babysitter.'" -- Gordon Edes, ESPNBoston.com
