PSF EDIT: I had no net access until today, so this is late…but
still worth posting
 
Just a few thoughts regarding Memorial Day and what it means to me. As a kid
growing up I always considered MD as the "kick-off" to summer. My
father and my uncles would pack up us boys […]

David Ortiz.
8 of Ortiz’ 11 home runs have either tied or put the Sox ahead in a game. Of those, the Sox lost ONE of those games. I don’t have the time to go through and look, but I’d be willing to bet that the ratio of all his RBI is also pretty […]

Are you a Sports-mad family? Does your wife hate the fact that your team is more
important to you than her?
I am working on a new show for ABC television, called “Wife Swap”.
I am writing today because we are looking for people to apply to appear on our
show.
“Wife Swap” is about […]

Just a few thoughts…
Manager… playerG??s manager? ownerG??s manager? hard, soft?…I think Terry is doing a good job. He made very few questionable calls (example: he once called for the infield in when it was only the 3rd inning, thatG??s an G?over-gutsyG? call, but itG??s not a panic call) but generally I am quite happy with […]

The Sox offense spots Derek a big lead, but he does his best to keep the game
interesting. And once again, he throws a few innings of good ball, then quickly
falls apart after an error/bad play in the field. I really hope he turns it
around and becomes the 2002 Lowe..but […]

Obviously, you can’t talk about baseball 24/7, so sometimes the chat room goes
on a tangent. Well, here are snippets of the discussion started after this
article about a family who just had their FIFTEENTH KID.
15:06:13 [rich] Compared with the average American family, ours is very unusual.
My husband, Jim Bob, and I have 14 […]

Nice to have one of these every once in a while, eh?
Schilling was pretty much lights out (although he labored a bit in the 7th),
and the bats came alive. Manny with his 12th, and Bellhorn with a career night
that included a homer off of the screen on Pesky’s Pole. And Ortiz […]

The beginnings of a nice little streak, methinks?
Today was my 5th time at Fenway; 5 wins. I’m not gonna say it’s just me, but….maybe
the Sox should keep me in mind should they make the playoffs.
They sure wanted to give Toronto a chance not to be swept, eh? I mean; giving
a guy […]

In true Dirt Doggian fashion:
Teams love Lowe
and Lowe’s defeated grin
When Lowe is making that face,
Sox just can’t win
And so it goes
Till the day you die
This thing they call Lowe
It’s gonna make you cry
I’ve seen the hits
The looks […]

A nice tidy win last night. Schilling with a nice performance, Manny still
on fire, Pokey flashing leather, and Damon with a little home run action. Schilling
found Pokey’s leather amusing:
Reese made a terrific play to rob Blum leading off the seventh, ranging
to his left on a grounder up the middle.
“That […]
