    Hey all! Last Nights loss sucked big time. Hopefully the offense will be much better today.

    Whoa, don’t knock him off his feet there…

    Do they still have cowbells or something?

  8. 2008 April 27 at 1:46 pm

    Aaah, sorry I’m a bit late! I found the best song ever. Synergy, synergy!

  10. 2008 April 27 at 1:47 pm

    Aw, I thought we might get something going there.

  11. 2008 April 27 at 1:47 pm

    Why do I get the feeling that Rays fans are going to be really annoying this year? I mean cowbells?

  13. 2008 April 27 at 1:49 pm

    Oh, Josh… I love watching him pitch.

    Hi All!

    BecKett!

    What crappy game last night. Buchholz did a great job, tho.

    The hubby is in the garage building a cabinet, the kidlet is still sleeping (had a midnight service last night), and I’m relaxing watching the game. Perfect!

    BecKKett!!!!!!!!!!!

    This is pretty much why we need him. Yeah.

  29. 2008 April 27 at 1:52 pm

    I’ll be here sporadically today. I’ve got to handle all of the posting on my blog today since my partner in crime Steve is working.

    It’s almost 2 Pm and I have 10 posts done because of the Red Sox, UConn Huskies and Patriots.

    I love Josh. hes so serious, and he doesnt want to mess around. If the team needs good pitching, they’ll give it to him, end of discussion. Thats what i love abt him.

  31. 2008 April 27 at 1:53 pm

    That’s some marathon blogging.

    It’s a K day I see

  36. 2008 April 27 at 1:54 pm

    I’ll be disappearing around three due to school obligations. But school’s very important, so it’s not something I can blow off…

    oh Josh…how we missed you!!

  38. 2008 April 27 at 1:54 pm

    …hot damn, Josh. Nice.

  39. 2008 April 27 at 1:55 pm

    Did I just hear Don say that Youk has the longest errorless streak at ANY position?

  40. 2008 April 27 at 1:55 pm

    It is Liza but that’s one of the bad things about a being a multiteam blog. especially when my two teams i cover are the Sox and UConn. Steve does the Pats and Celts but he’s working so I get to do it all

    The Baby Sox need to pick up on his intensity. Just awesome.

  42. 2008 April 27 at 1:56 pm

    He did break the record last night (I was thinking of you!), although I’m not sure if it’s the longest record anywhere…it could be, though, and it wouldn’t surprise me if it was…

  43. 2008 April 27 at 1:56 pm

    I thought he said first base.

    I lived in Ware, MA when I was little…it’s pronounced just like “where” so when people would go “Where do you live?” and I’d answer “Ware” they would be like “No WHERE do you live?” It kinda sucked:-P

    Okay Manuel, awaken thy bat!

  46. 2008 April 27 at 1:57 pm

    Ware did you live Meghan? :D

  47. 2008 April 27 at 1:58 pm

    OK, I knew about the record at first, wasn’t listening closely, wanted to check what I heard.

    Anyone else pissed about the shot clock bullshit during the C’s game yesterday? And the refs just sucking all-around?

    Last night was bad for pro-sports officiating:-(

    FC– he said at any ONE position.

  50. 2008 April 27 at 1:59 pm

    Yeah, the radio’s just saying first base. It’s not the entire field.
