To Jules: That theme song was from WBZ-TV Boston. They broadcast the RS circa 1973ish. It was a cartoon with a pilgrim and a turkey.

“or they were so afraid of Beckett’s reaction to helping him up, they just ignored him.”

xDDD Couldn’t have said it better myself!! I just about died of laughter seeing this and wished NESN had shown a replay.

Thanks so much for posting all these!! *squishes*

Totally laughed at Beckett …

But of course I was four hundred miles away and thus saved myself from a righteous Texan-delivered ass-kicking.

casey redeemed himself for tripping over his own feet by having a good sense of humor
he seems great, very quick, great shot of him holding his arms out safe with the helmet over his eyes!
good thing A-Rod was called out at first or Beckett would have looked not so cool-even though he was just doing his job- going for the ball. cares more about winning than looking good. i think that’s why he didn’t throw at a batter after manny got thrown at. yankee fans laughed real quick because it was the only chance all game that they got to smile

I’m not supposed to watch videos on the office server but couldn’t resist peeking at the Manny moments (half the video, anyway…had to check out the Dustin snuggle since I was sans TV for the Thursday game). Can’t wait to get home so I can watch all the rest of this. Thanks SO MUCH for posting all these goodies! Did I mention that this site is among my “Daily Essentials” bookmarks on my home computer? :-D

mouse, how about something connected to breakdancing for Beckett’s faceplant? Like, here’s his first attempt at the worm. It didn’t go so well…

Oh man. You are awesome for reposting these. Any time I need a good laugh I’ll have to come back to this entry and rewatch all of these.

Casey’s crawl earns bonus points for the “safe” call he made. An ability to laugh at yourself helps save face in those kinds of moments; might explain why he’s so famous for being a great teammate.

I need a good photo of Josh’s faceplant to pin up by my desk. Then I’ll come up with some kind of hilarious caption to go with it. Suggestions?

I KNEW that you would the video of Sean Casey’s “Crab Crawl” back to second base. I figured if you didn’t post it within a day or two, I was going to have to email you and beg you to do it. My husband and I laughed so freaking hard that I almost started crying. At that point, I stopped caring about the rest of the game.

I saw the Beckett face-flop too, which cracked me up. Mostly because, as seen by your screen shot, none of his teammates even bothered to help him up as they were running back to the dugout. Either they didn’t care, or they were so afraid of Beckett’s reaction to helping him up, they just ignored him.

Sean Casey is quickly becoming my boyfriend. Him calling himself safe was classic! He’s a fantastic addition to the Sox.

My husband just emailed me a Sox TV jingle from around 25 years ago:

“It’s time to relax and put your feet up
And meet up with the Boston Red Sox
Boston born and Boston bred Sox
So relax, relax, relax
And be a Sox watcher!”

Too funny!

Thank you!!!!!!!!

You got the Youk dust-off, too. I really needed this today.

That shot of Casey calling himself safe with the helmet over his eyes makes me laugh every time. I need to find a higher-res copy to include in my Sox-shrine in my office.

I missed Beckett’s faceplant. ouch. I’m glad he didn’t hurt himself, but what an effort!

My husband missed the Casey Crawl the other night- I am so thrilled that you posted this so that I can share the joy! Thanks!
