    I still need to get to Shea before it’s reduced to scrap rubble. Driving by it multiple times on the way to the airport doesn’t count.

    Come on Texy, you’re taking the fun out of it.

    I had a nice press release ready to go saying the game was canceled and would be made up a part of a day-night double header tomorrow.

    But for real, tomorrow night if anyone is of unknown authorship or origin, it’s not me. I’ll be attending the nuptials of one of my best friends tomorrow night.

    hey everyone…happy friday…..i fell asleep in the middle of the game last night….guess thats what happens when you sleep for 2 1/2 hours then go and teach little children….hoping the game starts soon…

  8. 2008 May 2 at 9:25 pm

    Considering they both work for a liquor distributor, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say I’ll have a great time.

  9. 2008 May 2 at 9:26 pm

    you were probably better off kristina. you really didn’t miss much other than BJ’s balk.

    If they ever did one of these “Down On The Farm” pieces on Kyle Jackson, I’d be as happy as a pig in shit.

    The Beej was rilly, rilly fired up after he got that 3rd out (for the second time).

    Oh maaaannng, Ian — that sounds like it’ll be a hoot!

  13. 2008 May 2 at 9:28 pm

    I haven’t turned on NESN yet today. As soon as the game was delayed, I’ve watched “Go” with a normal Katie Holmes and then the C’s

  14. 2008 May 2 at 9:31 pm

    Switch to NESN now, Ian.

    Cmon, Clay!

  15. 2008 May 2 at 9:31 pm

    Looks warm at Fenway now.

    “And, yes, there’s a chance for more showers.”
    “Oh. Good.”

    I love Don and Remy.

  19. 2008 May 2 at 9:32 pm

    Nah, i’m watching the C’s in HD, I have the game on my computer through my tv tuner on here.

  23. 2008 May 2 at 9:33 pm

    When you can see the pitcher’s breath… es no bueno.

    Ouch…46 degrees? It’s 66 here — would you like me to send some balmy air your way?

  26. 2008 May 2 at 9:34 pm

  27. 2008 May 2 at 9:35 pm

    c’mon down. let me know and i’ll hook ya up. would love to see a game with you!!

  28. 2008 May 2 at 9:35 pm

    Crawford’s breathing clouds. Ugh.

    It was SO COLD today in Boston. I was around UMass Boston today and it was frigid.

    Saw a great post the other day dissecting Clay’s pitching mechanics – pretty fascinating stuff.

    MG: I insist it be a Phillies game, so you have to explain to everyone around your season tickets why you’re friends with a Phils fan. :)

    by the way, the meaty marinara Tuscay pasta from Pizza Hut is delish.

  31. 2008 May 2 at 9:39 pm

    nice one, bucK. ;D ;D ;D

    Ian, I’m going with the shrimp Pad Thai from Noi’s Thai Kitchen, conveniently located around the corner from my office.

    Two-sleeved Jacoby shuts it down.

    SOX BATS: YOU MUST WAKE UP. KTHXBAI.

  34. 2008 May 2 at 9:40 pm

    it is absolutely POURING here in western mass. (i’ll try to keep it out here and away from boston.)

    Whew, thanks Jacoby!

  36. 2008 May 2 at 9:41 pm

    Best Clay-vs-Joba piece I’ve ever seen was about mechanics. I hate that comparison (they’re COMPLETELY different pitchers, style-wise) but this argument basically said Clay has near-perfect mechanics and Joba’s scream injury! injury! injury!

  37. 2008 May 2 at 9:42 pm

    Okay, Sox. HITS ARE GOOD. SO ARE RUNS. REMEMBER THAT.

  38. 2008 May 2 at 9:42 pm

    Not too often you see KG get rejected on a dunk attempt.

  39. 2008 May 2 at 9:43 pm

    Ian you do realize this is a Red Sox thread and not a Celtics thread.

  40. 2008 May 2 at 9:46 pm

    Ian, if its not a problem– could u please post that scorecard that ur friend usues again? i forget which gmae thread u posted it in last, and i want to try to keep score. thanks. =)

    Awww, Hinske! I miss him.

    Piney- how’d the media blackout go? I was having some beverages the other night, so I don’t recall.
