Great montage, thanks!
Hi All!
I’m sooooooooooooooo glad it’s a night game–after this day, I *need* baseball. I *need* Commander Kick Ass.
Bring it on.
I’m glad you caught that because I forgot to set the DVR for the pregame show.
B-Webb now 8-0
Let’s go CELTICS
I’m with you, jules – this has been a horribly crappy week for me. I need some Beckett STAT.
Hey all, I can’t get into the actual list of comments for some reason. Anyway…I’m still at work and will be home in roughly 1/2 hour. Those of you who read my LJ entry from this afternoon will already be aware that I may be a bit scarce…but I’ll try to chime in sporadically during the evening. Will definitely have the radio. I hope that Josh is lights out and that our bats wake up at the right time.
See y’all after awhile.
Sorry you’ve had a crappy week, too, Texy. I’m so glad tomorrow is Friday. It’s my husband’s birthday, so I’ll get through work and enjoy the evening with him and our kidlet.
hey everyone……there must be something in the air, cause this has been the longest week for me too…Yay for Josh tonight =)
I’m actually flying to Oklahoma tomorrow (retch) to see my brother graduate law school – and I can’t decide if I’m excited to see my family, or nauseous at having to go to Oklahoma.
Happy early bday to your hubby!
Hi everyone. I’m back! Was away for a bit giving birth to our 4th child, a beautiful, healthy baby boy, and getting settled. Hoping to have a quiet, peaceful few hours so I can catch up!!!
WOW, shark! Huge, big, magnificent congratulations on the new baby!
Commander, my commander! Hey, all.
well congrats to you shark!
Texy, thanks! I’m blessed, he’s a prince.
I hope you have a good time in Oklahoma and congrats to your brother!
Speaking of congrats…
shark???? You just had number four!?!?!? CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!
YOU are very blessed, indeed!
Shark, glad your new addition is healthy and happy, congrats!
Hi all, and a hearty CONGRATULATIONS, shark!
Thanks!!! He’s a beauty!
Congrats shark!
That is so very exciting!!!! I always wanted four kids, but life happens and have just one. She’s a great kid, but expensive, so maybe it worked out. heeheee
BecKett
That pitch was no accident.
They are very expensive. VERY expensive. This latest addition might just put us in the poor house! My oldest is only 6. I loose sleep thinking about how expensive it is going to get as they get older!
i’m kind of ok with hitting the guy who got what, five hits last night…
Congrats, shark! And hello everybody!
Ha. Agreed, Texy. A. Greed.
Texy, I was thinking the same thing.
“That was for Paps!”
I guess I should be happy that I missed last night’s game.
Oh yeah, you hit in the game-winning run and blowing Paps’ save? That’s a beanin’.
BecKKett
BecKKett……now my day is better =)
Hey guys! Just turned on the game to watch Beckett strike out a guy =]
Anyone else here always immediately think “VerlanderlayIndustries” every time you see Justin? Just me?
Texy, not until *now*, but that’s funny!
see trish, now i’m envisioning Josh kickin some bully’s ass for Paps….like on the playground =)
WOW!
Yes TEK!
scoring first makes me happy
Dear Lugo,
Now is the time for redemption. Don’t fuck up.
Love,
Life

HA! That pitch just bodes well for us in sooooo many ways.
Casey bought steaks for the Pawtucket team after the game today–D.O.
yay for casey getting some hits in pawtucket…and of course, he bought them dinner

Awwwwwww!
I just love this baseball team! (maybe minus Lugo)
Hello all! :)
Hey all, I finally got home…just in time for Gameday to show me the third run. Yay for us! And congratulations, shark! And Texy, I hope you have a good and safe trip, in case I forget to say that later.
Off to find something to eat…
I bet Casey took them all to the C’s game too. And made them all wear bright orange t-shirts with “Casey’s Kids” written on them so he doesn’t lose track of the guys.
LOL, Meghan, that’s a visual.
Meghan….he also bought them pop corn and slushies
1-2-3….sit down says BecKKKett…ok, time to make some grilled cheese =)
F*** KEVIN YOUKILIS!
(sorry)
Watching Beckett striking people out just gives me the warm fuzzies. He’s such a bad ass.
So, what are the feelings about tina’s replacement?
