    Since people hate being first with the comments, I’ve started it off for y’all. LOL.

    Hey, I resemble that remark.

    Hello everyone!

    Hey all…just checking in. The game is on TV here again, so I’ll be in the other room for the most part, but will probably pop back in here and there…

    Hi All!

    ecl, you should be happy that Manny is playing tonight.

    I hope I can watch the game on NESN, the ESPN announcers (omg, Joe Morgan) drive me out of my mind.

  7. 2008 May 12 at 7:06 pm

    instead you have steve phillips who’s pretty bad too. I’ll stick with remdawg and d.o.

    NESN didn’t kick me off. I’m loving the season of NESN ;-)

    DO and Remdawg are just what I need after this day. A win would be great, too.

    COCO!

  9. 2008 May 12 at 7:10 pm

    What has gotten into Coco?

    3 days without Red Sox baseball? Not fun.

  11. 2008 May 12 at 7:10 pm

    back in massachusetts after three days in minneapolis – saw some good baseball, GOT DUSTIN PEDROIA TO SIGN MY JERSEY – but it’s nice to be home again.

    Welcome back TG and Jenny.

    Jenny, that is too cool Dustin signed your jersey. I think I would faint.

  16. 2008 May 12 at 7:13 pm

    At least the replay showed the ump got it right.

    jenny, Pleats autograph on your jersey is so cool. I’d love Paps’ autograph on mine. I hear they sign more readily for kids, I’ll send my daughter out with my jersey ;-)

  19. 2008 May 12 at 7:14 pm

    small ball sox. double sacrifice weak single = 1 run

    498!!! Holy shit!

    Happy Dance!

  26. 2008 May 12 at 7:17 pm

    So happy I’m crying. Manny just made my week.

    ecl, that was awesome.

    You’re going to be an absolute wreck when he hits 500.

  28. 2008 May 12 at 7:18 pm

    Maybe that will wake Manny’s bat up now. Plus he’s got a lot to live up too now since he said he was the best left fielder the Red Sox have ever had.

  29. 2008 May 12 at 7:18 pm

    So happy I’m crying. Manny just made my week.

  30. 2008 May 12 at 7:20 pm

    These guys will learn that you really shouldn’t run on Cuddyer or Young. Those two have absolute cannon arms.

    SOMEONE PLEASE MAKE NESN STOP WITH THE SOUND EFFECTS.

  31. 2008 May 12 at 7:20 pm

    Sorry for the double post.
    Sorry for the double post.

    LOL…the only trouble, jules, is that there’s no guarantee I’ll get to see 500 as it happens. C’est la vie. I knew 498 was gone as soon as it left his bat. Pretty, pretty, pretty HR, Manny!

    Ian, at least we’re not listening to Joe ;-)

    But we get Bob’s furniture.

    ecl, I’m sure between Ian and Texy, there will be video.

    I do love Cuddyer.

    Let’s go Clay – get that away ERA down.

  34. 2008 May 12 at 7:23 pm

    Manny’s going to get it to 499 and then wait until they get back to the Fens to hit 500

  35. 2008 May 12 at 7:24 pm
    Texas Gal permalink Reply to this comment

    Yeah- Ian has TOTALLY horned in on my video posting niche! ;)

  36. 2008 May 12 at 7:24 pm

    And I’m calling it now, Manny hits #500 off of Gagne this weekend.

    THAT WOULD BE POETIC.

  38. 2008 May 12 at 7:25 pm

    Yes I have but it’s worked out good for the times when you’re away.

    And wow that was a nasty ass curveball.

  39. 2008 May 12 at 7:25 pm

    TG, Ian TOTALLY took advantage of your absence to whip videos up on his blog.

  40. 2008 May 12 at 7:26 pm
    Texas Gal permalink Reply to this comment

    Shocking, that Ian- stealing my gig.

    I’m going to start posting news roundups in protest.

  41. 2008 May 12 at 7:27 pm

    Plus it also helps that I have a DVR thing for the computer. BTW, I knew Big Papi mocked Tito last year and I posted that up this afternoon..

  42. 2008 May 12 at 7:28 pm

    Why am I getting picked on???? :D I’m the only male brave enough to hang around here for a whole game.

    Warms my heart to see Casey back at 1B.

    (and Ian, we pick because we care)

  44. 2008 May 12 at 7:30 pm

    AWWWWW you care ;)

    Casey should play again tomorrow or Wednesday so Tito can give Mikey a break.

    It’s just like picking on our little brother ;-)

  46. 2008 May 12 at 7:31 pm

    But I could be older than you (37) and you’re picking on you’re older brother.
