It’s great to see the Sox playing the Indians again. As Remy went through the defense on the Indians we were pleasantly reminded that they have Ass-Dribble Cabrera playing second base.
We learned that Travis Hafner has a fan club consisting of one rather large woman called “Hafner’s Heffers”. I don’t know about anyone else, but I thought it was hysterical and reminded me of the Pittsburgh fans we found during football season. Click for Front Click for Back.
I forgot to touch on the buried jersey stuff in my Bruins frenzy I was thrown into on Sunday night when I posted so I’ll touch on that now. Um, who gives a shit? Seriously? It’s such a fucking stupid thing. We all got a chuckle out of the fact that a Sox jersey was buried in the New Yankees Stadium, but did we really give a shit? I know I didn’t.
But apparently Hank Steinbrenner did. It cost the team $50K to have the jersey dug up. You’re telling me that the $50K couldn’t have been used for something better like maybe a few extra toilets? Just thinking out loud. Now they want to charge this guy with a crime too? Um, I don’t think that the shirt was hurting anything. It’s stupid mush-mouth Hank’s idea to dig it up, don’t put the blame on this guy.
So to recap, the Sox took two of three from the Spanks. Mike Timlin showed us on Friday that he’s old and perhaps keeping Bryan Corey on the team would’ve been the better play. Time will tell, but I put Friday’s loss on Timlin’s shoulders despite the fact the offense managed one God Damned hit (A JD homer) until Coco’s bullshit bunt hit in the 9th made it two.
Even with the departure of Charles Steinberg the Sox continue to whore themselves out to every avail. The latest is yet another Massachusetts Lottery ticket, this time a $20 ticket. Um, I didn’t win shit on the $5 or $10 tickets all of a sudden I’m going to pay $20? Eat a dick is a phrase that comes to mind. Even better, since we already can’t get tickets to games the team is now going to hold random auctions for tickets. Now normally when it benefits the Jimmy Fund or The Red Sox Foundation I’m OK with auctions, but these latest ones are just a way for the team to make more money. Um, fuck you, you greedy bag of dicks.
Let’s keep going on this for a minute. Jerry Remy as president of Red Sox Nation, telling me to “join”. Um, I was born into it and I don’t need a faggoty card to prove it. Now I see him on the Jordan’s Furniture commercial telling me to buy furniture and that it’s a great deal. Mind your business and don’t tell me what to do. Also there’s no fucking way I’m entering the “Ring Raffle”. I wasn’t on the fucking team, I’m a fan. Players get rings, not fucking fans. At least proceeds for that go to the Red Sox Foundation.
Finally I will touch on something I heard on Sports Radio over the weekend. Booing David Ortiz. The question was proposed that if the slump continues at what point do the fans get on him? How about you don’t! Unlike a piece of human excrement like Julio Lugo, Ortiz has given everything to this team that gave him a shot when the Twins didn’t want him. He’s huge in the community, great with kids and is an all around good guy. Let him hit his way out and applaud his efforts.
Ortiz = Free Pass
It’s 4-1 Indians in the 5th and the Sox blew a bases loaded opportunity in the 1st. Lester can’t buy a fucking strike. That’s it, I’m not watching. If they come back, great. If not, I didn’t waste my time watching. Maybe the C’s, minus the Big Three, will beat the Knicks? We shall see.

with all the conflict tonight, Im lost. I took the moneyline , and won on all my al games. But that’s neither here nor there, baseball+moneyline = Daguy collecting wealth! But such a risk, moneyline+vodka+knowledge= idiocracry= Victory!
Sox, plus the moneyline= well done, lets parlee it into real $$ Or I can can just cash out! Lets cash out! For now anyway….
April 15, 2008 at 12:21 am
or we can count our $$ and move on… which is what I’ll do…

So I watched the C’s win, flipped back to the Sox and saw Youk make it a one run game.
I ripped into Lugo, so he leads off the 9th with a double. Coco (the bunt man, seriously he seems to bunt almost every at bat) gets him to third and Little Dusty gets a sac fly to score Lugo.
Then Papi gets a bloop single, Jacoby comes in to run for him and it doesn’t matter because Manny jacked a two run shot to left. Not as long as last year, remember that one to dead center? Then Wily Mo hit one too? Well, I’m a fan, I remember.
Paps works a clean ninth for the save and Timlin gets the win. Timlin lowered his ERA from 81.00 to 20.25. Good times.

I thought is was pretty funny to hear about the jersey being burried, but when I saw that they made it a spectical to show that they dug it up at a cost of 50K I laughed even harder. It goes to show you just how much the Sox get underneath the skin of the Yankees.
You know who those join red sox nation cards are for? The chicks with the pink sox hats, and band wagon fans that want to prove that they are not band wagon fans and they are really die hard fans. of course by buying a card it just shows that said card holder is that much more of a band wagon fan.
As for the booing of Papi, there should never be any booing of Papi…ever! He helped the team win 2 world series. Papi should be held in same level of respect as Brady, Bobby Orr, and Larry Bird. Brady could play like crap for the rest of his playing days but I would never boo him.(we know that won’t happen with Moss) Both Brady and Papi have enough good will and respect in the bank to last them the rest of their lives as far as I’m concerened.

Firstly!, Papi will never be booed at fenway! Never!!!
Secondly! Stop listening to local sports talk radio, and stop watching SportsCenter. They all work for the man. There is a much, MUCH better outlet for real sports talk radio. You can find it at http://www.sirius.com on channel 101, 124, 125, and 123 amung others…
Thirdly, El Capitan!
Mr. Tek33 delivers the goods in the top of the 9th in Cleveland. And then the “KID” makes an extrordinary catch, (in right field of all places) taking the ball from a maroon in the front row in Cleveland to finish off the tribe!
Uh fourthly I guess, This is Boston. If Papi, Brady, Big Ticket, Joe Thorton(oops) etc don’t perform, or don’t live up to their contract they WILL be booed. But its gonna take years of mediocracy for that to happen.
Funny how nobody mentions the Zdeno Chara debaucle. Talk about an Albatross contract. When is the last time you heard his name called on the loud-speaker? Not including his “Hit the road Jack” journey to the box. Somewhere in Ottawa, an executive is laughing,… HARD!

Ok ok, watch sportscenter. But watch with a grain of salt in your eye! Ouch, I know.
Holy Mackerell! As I type, the host(A black dude, name withheld) just called another black guy “the colored guy”. I guess I underestimated ESPN. Just after they updated the Herald Reynolds (sexual harrassment) story, they go to that. Well done! Next thing you know, we can all talk freely and openly!
Imagine that…. typing “black guy” without guilt? Really they’re brown anyway, so what does it matter? LOL…. hehe
Oh lighten up! I should be called PINK! Which would you rather be? … …… I thought so…!!! LOL

I know, I know, enough already. But, I have to comment on Rev. Timlin.
Father Timlin, I love you to death. I do. But, because I love you, I can tell you… It’s time. It’s time. Let it go. You were the man, for a long long time you were the man. But now, its time to “graduate” as Jr. Seau says. Succumb to your pride, and let it go. And let your team off the hook. God will understand.(lol) Afterall, he did everything else for you right?
