I haven't been around for a while, but I really want to have some fun with game seven, and I think since I'm alone watching the Sox I should do it online and just type, type, type away. If you don't like it, I'm sorry. If you do, read along and leave your comments!)So. No one else thinks Gene Hackman, specifically in Enemy Of The State, looks anything like Joe...

We've all been here before, remember, folks? Those days of nail-biting, palm-sweating, nervous tics, they're back. To be honest. I don't mind. If there is one thing that has always been a constant within Red Sox lore is how they always make you work for it. Nothing comes easy, and nothing comes cheap. Being a Red Sox fan means you stick through until the bitter end, and sometimes, since we've been a bit lucky the past few years - we all need a collective knock in the dome....

So, the Sox are heading down to the Trop, or as I like to call it "The Bio-Dome". Seriously, every time they show that stadium on NESN I'm expecting Pauly Shore to repel down the rafters smoking a joint and singing Helter Skelter. But - what I've decided to get on top of my soap box today was for Justin Masterson. Yep, didn't you all know? The Kid pitched up in the Fens yesterday, and he didn't do too shabby either!

So, for some inexplicable reason the Sox game is now live and in color on the Best Western Cable Network being broadcast on ESPN. I don't have any rhyme or reason for why the game is now on, but I will not complain. I was live, living the good life last night about thirty rows back from home plate in the Fens with my family and let me tell you - there is nothing like taking in a ball game with the whole clan. It reminded me of when I was younger and went to games with my...

Now, late in the game, with the Sox clinging to a one run lead, with former Sox farm hand Zach Miner pitching, Manny knocks in two with a deeeeeep double to straight away center off the wall.

He's gotten on base in all nine games, and, as far as anyone can tell - the Bad Man himself is going to prove the theory that Contract (/option) years are detrimental, and that more often than not, the player has a break out, or simply fantastic season. Manny is no exception. After finding Zen, Buddha, Rastafarian, or scientology the guy looks possessed....

| So..Daisuke comes out to pitch the actual US opener of the Sox season in Oakland. First of all, for the record, I hate the A's. I don't know why, and for what specific reason, but I loathe the green, white, and yellow that is the Oakland existence of baseball. Maybe it's for the simple reason that they have, year after year produced talent when everyone discounted them, but I mainly think it's for the white cleats..I mean, c'mon.
