red sox v. white sox series

Hey Red Sox, what’s up with the whole winning the first two games and losing the last one thing? Are you allergic to housework and can’t find the broom? Sheesh. Clearly you don’t understand how greedy I am.
Also, Dustin Pedroia, when did you turn into Joe DiMaggio? Wow. Little Dustin Pedroia. Who knew? It was [...]

red sox v. yanks – games 2 & 3

Wow. Talk about a buzzkill. Game 2, the Red Sox literally slaughter the Yankees 11-3. Right in front of Fat Jack, no less. That was good times. Then in game 3, Jon Lester pitches a fan-fracking-tastic game and it looks like a sweep is imminent and what happens? Wha wha what? The bullpen (I shall [...]

red sox v. yanks series

7-3 win is a nice start. I wasn’t sure what we were going to get from Wakefield. I had to ask everyone within earshot at work, “Hey, what do we think about Wake on the mound tonight? Confident?” and mostly the answer was, “Meh. Maybe.” I really didn’t watch the game. I flipped the channel [...]

red sox musings of the day

Manny Delcarmen scares the shit shrimp out of me. I wouldn’t say Gagne-scared or Bucholtz-scared, but close enough to those to make me extremely uncomfortable when the game’s on the line. He seems like a really great kid (and does a mean Milli Vanilla impression w/Papelbon) but cod damn it, I just can’t watch him [...]

manny is right where he ought to be… in the spotlight

I’m scared that the most interesting thing about the Red Sox was Manny Ramirez because since he left, I find myself with absolutely nothing to write about. Jason Bay is great. He’s another consistent lunch pail guy with a fantastic work ethic. Christ, what am I supposed to do with that? Schilling used to provide [...]

the truth on mike & mike

Ok, let’s just face facts here. I’m a delinquent blogger. I think I’ll blog a lot more when the NFL and NBA start up again. Every time I even think about blogging these days its to bitch about Manny Ramirez. I think he’s clearly occupied enough real estate on my blog already. I spend a [...]

stop the presses! brett favre sells jerseys

So Brett Favre is a Jet. I was flipping channels when the news broke and I think it’s a sure sign that I watch too much ESPN that my first thought was, “Greeny is going to be so excited!” Oy. It’s going to be interesting [for the Patriots] playing a Jets team that doesn’t suck monkeyballs [...]

My new best friends…

Jason Bay and Jed Lowrie. What a breath of fresh air those two are. The whole team just seems fresher and lighter. Like a big ugly fog has been lifted from the dugout at Fenway. Speaking of Manny, I heard a rumor (yes, my Mom) that he’s agreed to cut his hair. Reminds me of another [...]

smell ya later, manny

Man, I have been an extremely delinquent blogger. Thank goodness I don’t have a legion of fans following my every word. I knew that would come in handy some day.
So. Manny’s going going……… GONE! Good riddance. He reminded me of a collicky baby. Wah wah, you don’t deserve me. Wah wah, trade me for [...]
