boozed out phenoms (and other musings)

If you can’t believe a boozed out bisexual internet phenom, who can you believe?
* Depending on who you believe, Tila Tequila was either choked out and unlawfully restrained by “boyfriend,” Shawne Merriman – or – respectfully detained by an “acquaintance” only interested in keeping her from driving while intoxicated. More on this tawdry tale… Shawne Merriman’s lawyer: LB [...]

boston is badass, baby!

I’m serious. We’re mean. We’ll decapitate and disembowel a mutha.
> ‘Shocked’ Beckett will appeal suspension
Sox pitcher Josh Beckett has been suspended for six games and fined by MLB, which determined he intentionally threw a pitch near the head of the Angels’ Bobby Abreu on Sunday. (Excerpt from boston.com)
> Ray Allen suspended tonight
Celtics guard Ray Allen has been [...]

c.c. sabathia wishes he was josh beckett

Is there really anything better than opening day at Fenway? How about those Red Sox, huh? Looking damn good right out of the gate. Especially the assassin on the mound, Josh Beckett.
Beckett’s fastball, from the first inning to the seventh, hummed in the mid-90s, topping out at 96 miles per hour, a velocity he reached [...]

OMFG! jd drew! big papi!

Wow! I was exhausted last night and went to bed at 10pm. When I woke up this morning, my first thought was, “Well… The Red Sox had a pretty good run. I guess they ran out of gas.” Turned on ESPN2 to watch Mike & Mike and saw the score at the bottom of the [...]

beckett’s back baby!

A few thoughts on a Friday night…

Have I been smoking what Mario Chalmers & Darrell Arthur deny they’re puffing on or did Chad Johnson really change his motherfracking last name to Ocho Cinco? Who does that? Can you imagine Tom Brady announcing that he’ll now be referred to as “Tom Uno Dos”? No, because he isn’t batshrimp crazy… [...]

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 [...]

trick question: who needs SIX shooting guards?

I apparently missed an epic Red Sox game today. Thank goodness NESN is re-airing it tonight. It is a little weird though, watching a game that you know the outcome of already. I’m suffering from a serious lack of suspense here. I’m happy to suffer though, since it means I already know they score 18 [...]

red sox coma

I spent last weekend in a blissful Red Sox coma. I was super exhausted and couldn’t muster up the energy to do anything more taxing than lying on the couch with the dogs watching the Sox play the Astros. I could’ve done without the two losses in a row, but such is life. For the [...]

josh beckett sure can bunt

Oh Josh Beckett, how I love thee… He looks so funny with a bat in his hands. I forgot we were interleague-ing it today and thought I was seeing things. The first time up, he wasn’t really trying all that hard and started to walk off after strike two. They had to call him back [...]
