    Hi Y’all!

    :: waves ::

    How’s the weather back there? I hear there’s chance of showers. I hope not!

    :: sends sun vibes back east ::

    ;-)

    I’m looking forward to seeing Colon tonight.

    Hey, Jules!
    I wasn’t brave enough to make the first comment, so I’m glad you did!

    I think Don and Jerry are wearing matching jackets. Anyone else notice this?

    I love this RSN commercial with Paps doing his “dance” and Fisk calling it fair. So cool.

    I’m sooooooooo ready for baseball tonight.

    Hi Bethei and Abby…

    I noticed their jackets, too. Particularly that DO wasn’t wearing that 70s-inspired blue number with white buttons. Remy (rightfully) gives him a hard time when he wears that.

    Just downloaded lester’s no hitter off of Itunes too. Some required re-watching for the next few days.

    Ok, I’ve got to check the kidlet and think about what to make for dinner…back later.

    Jon Lester kept calling Jacoby “Jake” during his interview post-no-hitter. It was odd.

    Jules, I live too far away to get NESN, but maybe TG or Ian could get a video of that commercial up later

    Dayum. Our future’s so bright, mama needs shades.

    I’m thinking Schill was a more than a touch prophetic when he named Jacoby, Dustin, Clay & Jon the Mount Rushmore for the future of this club.

    I love it. Do we have a graphic for that yet?

    Hey, NJ, have you seen this? Or this?

    Also, Jane, I’m on it.

    Just in case anyone was wondering, ecl1958 said she’d be late coming to this thread tonight. She wanted me to make sure no one thought that anything bad happened to her since she’s always here for every game.

    Thanks, Liza. Look at the third video in the ‘related videos’ column on this one. =D

    Thanks, Ian. I’ll go look for that now…

    Confession:

    That AT&T commercial with the Motorhead fan who calls himself a “dillweed” kills me *every* time.

    Jules, it is endearing.

    Twice tonight Don has said “Tomko” and I thought he said “Taco.” I’m not sure what this means.

    Hey everyone — JUST walked in the door, haven’t even unloaded the groceries yet. I am SO ready to get into this game!

    NJ: Thanks for letting folks know of my tardiness.

    Will be back momentarily — gotta put away the perishables and get into my PJs and get dinner together.

    hey all…

    I’m glad Colon got out of that jam. He’s doing OK for his first game in the majors in a loooooooooong time.

    Back to cooking…
