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 ...
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. ...
Tuesday night's special category for Trivia Night will
be Halloween and October 31st Trivia. It will be
a mixed bag of Halloween questions, as well as some connected to events occurring on October 31. --- The Sneak Peek question is: In what game must players stay behind a line called an "oche?" --- See you all Tuesday night at 9 PM.
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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...
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 ...
This week's special category for Tuesday Night Trivia
at Professor Thom's will be Grammy Awards Trivia, and
we will also have the usual four other categories to go with it. It will be all about past winners of the music business' highest awards. There will be something a little different with the category however. The first eight questions will be multiple choice questions, but there will ...
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 ...
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 ...
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." ...
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 ...
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. She can comfort you like no other, holding you in her arms. She can fill your ...
Today is the official release date for the
2007 Red Sox season documentary that I appear in,
along with many of the Professor Thom's regulars, "Blessed! Still We Believe 2." It is available at most fine video outlets everywhere. For more info, ...
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 ...
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, ...
As the whole world knows by now, this
three-game series the Red Sox are playing against the
Yankees in the Bronx starting tonight will mark the final time they will play in the second Yankee Stadium. That is, unless they meet in a one-game playoff or ...
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 ...
