Who's on First...

I swear I can't listen to this without hearing "Youks on first"? For the youngsters out there... This is one of the best baseball routines ever written. Enjoy!

Photo Day...

All Of The Above...

I saw this poll on the Red Sox website. To quote a friend "SERIOUSLY?" How do you pick just one and possibly more important, why is this list so short? The most important question for me is... Where the hell is Jason's name?

So long Schil...

It was announced today that Curt Schilling will have season ending surgery on his shoulder. It is quite possibly the end of his career... with the Red Sox.

You know Schill. If there is even the slightest chance that he can throw again next year, he will talk someone into paying him to do it.

I wish him the best of luck with his surgery and I hope he heals well. I'll miss him. He and Tek are the two most prepared players in baseball.

BWI...

Blogging While Intoxicated.

On Friday nights I like to watch Soxball. I buy some beer and I get into a comfy chair and cheer on the boys in Red Sox. It's a great way to end the week. Rain delays are not a good thing on Friday nights. I might get drunk before the delay is over.

Tonight the Boys wear green in honor of the Celtics. They did what we asked and "beat L.A." Keven Millar bet against the Celtics. I fear he has been away from home for entirely too long. It's OK tho, he won't do it again. He lost and had to use "Ice Ice Baby" for his at bat song. How humbling... Not only does it have some of the stupidest lyrics I have ever heard. The music is a total ripoff of Queen/Bowie "Under Pressure" Hmmm, irony. How fitting. Come home Kev, we miss you.

Kevin Cash will catch for Wake tonight. Oh dear. The more I see Cash, the more I miss Belli. I guess Cash wants kids someday. He catches Wake sidesaddle. I'm not going to do my whole "I hate Cash" rant. Go back to the older posts to read it.

Hoo-ray! It's time for baseball! Looks like it won't be a rain out after all. Go Sox~

To Catch A Thief...

Jacoby Ellsbury broke the club record of 31 rookie steals last Sunday... twice. He stole second to get 32 and then decided 3rd base looked like it had a better view of home plate, so he stole it too. My mother once told me "No one likes a thief". Mom was wrong. I like Jacoby just fine.

"Wheels" Ellsbury is a fun guy to watch on both offense and defense. I really enjoy watching games that both Jacoby and Coco play together. Yesterday Sean Casey got a steal. Laugh, I'll wait.

Jacoby is definitely our "DT" {designated thief} but I'm all for the Manny's and Casey's who feel like taking a run at 2nd base. It looks like fun and to tell you the truth, if I was standing on first base I'd think about it too. To be real, if I'm on 1st base you can bet that security is not very far behind.

Newish

Today I'm putting up a couple of new{ish} pictures. The 1st one, Papi and Tek is from last year. That's the "ish" one. The second is one I took yesterday.... thus, newish. I have been sick for a couple of days, so all I really want to do is sleep. Goodnight.
