  What are the odds of a hawk tearing at a girl named Alexa Rodriguez in Fenway?       50 million to 1.    Was the Hawk Juicing?

... First up is the Fenway Hawk.  It's a front page news story over on the Boston Globe website, so most of you are probably aware, but the Hawks who call Fenway home during the off-season are sick and tired of you meddling humans.  In the second attack in two days, Mr. Razor-claws attempted to gouge the eyeballs out of a 13-year old girl.  Luckily he missed, although he did gash open her scalp, causing her to go to the hospital. ...

Hawks At Fenway
Published 4/4/2008 by redsock at The Joy of Sox
A 13-year-old girl named Alexa Rodriguez (!!) was attacked by a hawk at Fenway park yesterday. Here are some pictures; the last one is magnificent. It turns out there was another hawk attack two days ago. And it happened to a SoSHer who conducts tours of the park. She posted about it in the members-only section: I was leading the 4th tour group into the State Street Pavilion yesterday and was yelling something to one of the tour guides ... when bam! I got whacked in the head. At first I wasn't sure what it was, but I looked and saw the hawk ...

... I am no conspiracy theorist but it appears as if Alex Rodriguez has a bit of bad karma following him. You see, during a tour of Fenway Park yesterday a 13 year old girl named Alexa Rodriguez was attacked by a hawk who has lived in the park since 2002. Alexa was rushed to the hospital but will be okay. Meanwhile A-Rod is dealing with accusations of Steroid abuse, wife-coveting, and will have to hit at least 45 home runs and 140 R.B.I just to earn the money he has been awarded by the New York Yankees. Don’t even get me started on what will ...
