There almost seem to be two games now, looking back on it. The first three quarters, and then the fourth.
Throughout the first three quarters I was sitting ther...
Oy Vey
November of 2009 hasn’t exactly been the best month to be a Boston sports fan has it? And we’re only half way through. I would die a happy man if I was not subjected to 1 more minute of exposure of those corn-fed goobers that are the Manni...

Boston Bay?
The Boston Red Sox still have the exclusive rights to talk turkey with Jason Bay until November 20...hey, that's the end of this week! Boston and Bay will probably finalize nothing by then because he wants to test the free agent market. After all, in four...
The waiting game begins now
This is the worst time of the year to be a baseball fan. The season is long enough over where you miss actual games, if your team won the World Series, the DVD isn't out yet and you can't inject yourself with baseball nicotine by watching it 47 times in a...
Jim Rice/Hall Of Fame Gallery
Kim and I used the Vet's day holiday to take our Hall of Fame trip, as we had to see the plaque and display of one of our favorites, Jim Rice. This was, I think, my fifth trip to Cooperstown. Click all to enlarge. Above, Rice on the banners outside the Ha...

Separating Rumor from More Rumor
It’s that time of year when the rumors are flying faster than birds heading south for the winter. And if you believe all of them, you probably believe all the crap that spews from Scott Boras’s mouth. Everything the guy says is designed to make you b...

November Pain
Everytime I turned on a radio this week, all I heard was BradyManningBradyManningBradyManning. True, the Patriots and the Colts are playing Sunday night. But people, it's a regular season game in November. It's not the Superbowl, it's not the playoffs, a...
