My New Sawks Jersey

Fri, 11 Jul 2008 21:48:56 +1900

This is pretty freaking hilarious. My good friend EJ Flex (die hard Yankee fan) sent this my way, and even though it's an extreme parody of Sox fans, it's pretty damn funny. I like to think that if you can't laugh at yourself you can't laugh at anything. Knuckleballs!

Thu, 10 Jul 2008 05:28:49 +1900

On Monday, Rich took a look back at the important business of the 2008 season to date: who's winning, who's losing, and why. Unimportant business is important too, however, so over the next two days I’ll be providing a rundown of the ephemeral, the trivial, and the pathetic events of the season's first half. Today: March and April.

Today we launched a new and improved 3D interface in Gameday that provides unprecedented and exclusive control over their view of the batter vs. pitcher matchup that is at the heart of the game.

Shaq loses deputy badge over foul-mouthed rap

Wed, 25 Jun 2008 02:46:59 +1900

PHOENIX - Shaquille O’Neal will lose his special deputy’s badge in Maricopa County because of language he used in a rap video that mocks former teammate Kobe Bryant. Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said the Phoenix Suns center’s use of a racially derogatory word and other foul language left him no choice. Arpaio made Shaq a special deputy in 2006.

Not a thing in the world to be upset about.

Fri, 20 Jun 2008 16:05:55 +1900

I am set to have what could be extensive and potentially career ending shoulder surgery on Monday. The result of that surgery could be waking up and being told “It’s been a nice run big man, but you’re done” or “It wasn’t THAT bad, but it’s going to take serious time and effort to ever pitch again”.

Behind the Youkilis-Ramírez fight

Sat, 7 Jun 2008 18:28:57 +1900

Multiple Red Sox players confirmed yesterday that Thursday night's dugout altercation between Manny Ramírez and Kevin Youkilis resulted from Ramírez objecting to what he believed was excessive - and chronic - complaining about the strike zone by Youkilis in the dugout, as well as the first baseman's penchant for throwing equipment after at-bats.

Manny & Youk fight in dugout

Fri, 6 Jun 2008 00:44:45 +1900

NESN caught footage of Kevin Youkilis and Manny Ramirez getting all rough & tumble in the dugout during the Red Sox/Rays game tonight. No word yet on what it was about. Earlier in the game, Coco charged the mound & took some swings at Rays' pitcher Shields. Manny showed up late to the brawl, maybe that's what it's about. Who knows.

Manny catches ball, high-5's fan, still gets double-play

Thu, 15 May 2008 03:03:42 +1900

Spectacular catch by Manny Ramirez in the Orioles/Red Sox game today. Manny catches the ball, high-fives a fan as he's against the outfield wall, then throws back to first base to double-up a Audrey Huff for the 3rd out of the inning. Give this man a Gold Glove!

It's Still Just a Game

Tue, 6 May 2008 01:51:06 +1900

A call for sanity in the Sox/Yankees rivalry... "Anyone that's stopped by our humble blog over the past four years knows a couple of things about us: we love the Red Sox and we hate the Yankees. But even in our drunkest, hepped-up-on-Red-Bull, post-Yankee-loss rage, we know it's just a game and there's always gonna be another one. Sadly, there are people that take sports way too far."
