A Day In The Life Of Doug Mirabelli
A couple of months ago, my friend Adam passed around a great email called "Dougie's Goin' Deep Tonight!" It was very funny, about a fictional day in the life of Sox backup catcher Doug Mirabelli. I deleted it too soon, but I did a search on the ...

Did The Red Sox Acquire Damaged Goods?
It was an absolutely brutal night for the Red Sox on Friday night. First they ran into a buzzsaw in Erik Bedard of the Baltimore Orioles. He was sensational for seven innings, allowing just two hits and no runs and taking a 1-0 lead into the eighth. ...

So How Many Titles Have The Devil Rays Won?
I was watching last night's Red Sox-Devil Rays game from St. Petersburg, a game the Sox won, 12-6 in 12 innings. In the second inning, J.D. Drew was at the plate, when I clearly heard a voice, which I was believe was that idiotic, obnoxious ...

 The Trophy's a Hit at Thom's
The Trophy's a Hit at Thom's
It was a night to remember at Professor Thom's on Friday night as the bar was packed with Red Sox fans (at least 100, probably more) as the 2007 World Series Championship Trophy made an appearance in New York, and it was a huge hit. The Trophy spent ...

 Paul Newman: 1925-2008
Paul Newman: 1925-2008
The great actor Paul Newman died at his Connecticut home last night of complications from lung cancer. He was 83 years old. I was always a fan of his films, especially "Cool Hand Luke," "The Sting" and "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid." But this is my favorite character from my favorite film ...

Once An Idiot, Now A Moron
Can't Johnny Damon just shut up for once and for all and move on? Judas is running his big mouth off again about the Red Sox, basically calling them a bunch of cheapskates for letting him walk away last year and allowing the Yankees to grossly overpay...

 Staying Classy In San Diego
Staying Classy In San Diego
I arrived in San Diego last night around 9:30 PM, with my friend Ken meeting me at the airport. It was a five-hour trip from JFK, and it went rather smoothly. This is my second trip to this beautiful California city, as I was here in 2004 for the ...

 Find The Losing Presidential Candidate
Find The Losing Presidential Candidate
I have to admit, I find this funny. Topps is putting out a special card this year of Your 2007 World Series Champion Boston Red Sox, and in the middle of it there is a superimposed picture of Rudy Giuliani, that "pseudo-Sox fan" joining in the ...

Send in The Morons
Well, you just knew that the Giants Super Bowl upset of the Patriots would bring the imbeciles out of the woodwork, sending really idiotic letters to the New York papers. I saw two letters in today's "Sound Off" sports feedback column in the New York Post that are true beauties. Check these out: Dear Boston: "The Curse" is back! Love, New York. MONTE ABRAMSON Manhattan Since the 2004 ...

Roy Scheider Dies at 75
I was saddened to learn on Sunday night that the versatile actor Roy Scheider died at the age of 75 in Little Rock, Arkansas. He had been battling myeloma, but the exact cause of his death has not been revealed as of yet. Mr. Scheider was originally from New Jersey, and best known for his roles in "Jaws," as police chief Brody, who utters the immortal line, "We're gonna need a bigger boat." ...

 Two U2 YouTube Clips Are Better Than One
Two U2 YouTube Clips Are Better Than One
It was 40 years ago today that Dr. Martin Luther King was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee at the Lorraine Motel. My friend Eddie sent along this YouTube clip of U2 doing their tribute to Dr. King, "Pride (in the Name of Love)" set to a number of clips of King speeches with newsclips. It lasts just over five minutes. My thanks to Eddie for sending it to me. And while we're on the ...

Trivia Q&A: April 8
We had a large crowd in for Trivia on Tuesday night, with 17 teams taking part. The scores were pretty good for Current Events, but most teams had problems with Classic Quotes. Most teams got about a "5" in it. The scores were strong for True or False, as half the teams got a perfect score. Most teams also did fairly well in General Knowledge as well. Going into IQ Trivia, it was tightly ...

I dedicate my 1,400th post to my mom, and all the mothers out there on their special day. I hope you all have a wonderful day with your families. What is a Mother’s Love? A mother’s love is many things. She is a teacher and a friend, someone to guide you through right and wrong, someone to listen and understand.

 Hedley Lamarr Dies
Hedley Lamarr Dies
Today, an actor in one of my all-time favorite comedies died. Harvey Korman, who made his name on "The Carol Burnett Show" in the 1960s and 1970s, passed away in Los Angeles at the age of 81, after suffering from an aneurysm many months ago. But he will be fondly remembered for his tremendous role as the evil Hedley Lamarr in the classic Mel Brooks comedy, "Blazing Saddles." It is one of the ...

"I'm Moving to Canada!"
No, I'm not the one planning to leave the United States. It's none other than Susan Sarandon, who making such a "threat" should John McCain get elected president this November. She said this in a recent interview . Good. Do us all a favor and leave if McCain gets elected. Yep, yet another goofball, batshit left-wing liberal celebrity who takes themselves and their politics way too seriously, ...

Trivia Q&A: October 7
We had just eight teams for Trivia Night on Tuesday, as the presidential debate kept many people away, and presumably home in front of their TVs. I didn't know ahead of time, but the debate was on in the bar, and above in The Loft as well. (We kept the sound on as we played, and it wasn't a ...
