Tales from the Ballpark
Waiting til next year
No, not exactly about the Red Sox and Y*****s! That is something I don’t feel like talking about. Yeah, I know that some of our guys could probably use some fat burners, and get into better shape…but that’s not what this is about toda...
Ugh.
I am NOT happy. Yes, I just watched the Phillies snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Now the Phils MUST win the next three games, or else!
I am getting sick of hearing people whining about their FOX shows not being on due to the World Series. I ...
Watching the game…
…and it’s only the 5th inning? Seems like it’s been going on longer than that. But it’s been a great pitchers’ duel, hasn’t it?
It’s times like this that I wish we had a better TV to watch it on. We have the...
The World Series has begun!
And what a great start it got off to! The Phillies took game one at The Monument To Excess, I mean Y***** Stadium, thanks mostly to two home runs from Chase Utley, and an amazing complete game by pitcher Cliff Lee.
Although the game was on FOX, and cabl...
Get one while you still can!
If you are like me, over the years, you may have taped baseball games on TV, to save for posterity. One such game was from the 1999 ALCS, which featured Pedro Martinez (BTW, Happy Birthday, Pedro!) vs. Roger Clemens. Red Sox vs. Y*****s classic!
Mike ...
The magical Phillie Phanatic!
Last night, as I watched the Angels nearly snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, I decided to change my Twitter and Facebook profile pics to that of the Phillie Phanatic, as seen above. This was in protest over the fact that the hated Y*****s were ab...
Oh, hai!
So are you watching the game? I am, and am happy to see that the Angels are winning. Who knows, maybe they will prevail after all, win tonight and the next two games, and make it to the World Series. A girl can always hope, right?
We are going away ...
I hate the Y*****s
I probably have at least 4396841 reasons to hate them, I won’t go into them all here, now. Just trust that I hate them, okay?
So right now I am rooting for the Angels to come back and kick some Y***** ass. But on the National League side, I&...
Reliving the good times!
Well, now that the Red Sox season is over, we have a long winter ahead of us. Sure, we’ll be rooting for the Angels over the Y*****s, but what about then that is over and done with?
Well, here’s a solution: Boston Red Sox-2004 World Series ...
I am in mourning
Yes, for the Red Sox and the end of their season. And since fate often likes to kick a girl when she’s down, those stinking Y*****s swept the Twinkies. So, when the ALCS starts on Friday, I’ll have to root for the Angels, the same ones tha...
So baseball season is over…
At least for the Red Sox, that is. Oh, my, that was a heartbreaker, Papelbon screwed up big-time. But I’ll talk more about that later.
So now we have time to catch up on our DVD watching. And although I love sports, I also like chick-fli...
November Baseball
Whose brilliant idea was it to start the World Series on October 28? This means that they will be playing baseball until almost Thanksgiving, it it goes the full seven games.
Not that I’d mind seeing baseball for longer, but there are other cons...
Here’s one for the WTF? Files
Lots of weird stories in the news lately…ipods catching on fire, for example. But then there are the stories that cause public outrage.
Such as this one: Fan let out of jail to see Red Sox game. Watch the video below:
If the video won̵...
Granite State Baseball Dinner Update
As previously promised, here is an update on who will be at the Granite State Baseball Dinner. From the press release:
The New Hampshire Fisher Cats, Double-A affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays, today announced the first wave of confirmed guests for the...
2010 Sea Dogs Tickets To Go On Sale Soon!
And, once again, they are cooperating with my personal schedule! Portland Sea Dogs tickets will go on sale on Saturday, November 7, at 9AM, only at the Hadlock Field Ticket Office. I don’t know this for sure, but in the past, telephone and inte...
The Red Sox are on a roll!
So they applied Ye Olde Broome to the Orioles this weekend. Not that it was all that difficult, as the Orioles are one of the suckiest teams in baseball this year. I’m looking at the standings now, and the only teams that are suckier are the Pit...
Granite State Baseball Dinner
It’s that time of the year again! The minor league baseball season may be over, the Majors are winding down…what do you do in November when it’s all over? Why, help out a few excellent causes, meet and greet some of your favorite ba...
Big on Features, Small on Price!
Well, the minor league season is over, so we won’t be going to any more ball games this year. Unless they decide to do another Old-Timers game at MerchantsAuto.com Stadium up in Manchester, NH. But I’ve heard nothing about it, also, the la...
Fire, fire!
So, it looked like a lot of people had to miss most of last night’s Sox game. If they were on their way to Fenway, and needed to use the MBTA Orange or Red Line trains, they were out of luck. Two separate electrical fires shut down the subway sy...
