Sorry there was no game thread yesterday, and no posts today – I’ve been snowed under at work. A little Becketty Boo should make me feel 10x better.
No worries, TG (though we missed you)!
Any other early birds should check out Comcast Sportsnet for Papelbon’s “Dirty Dancing” debut. ;D
Not a problem, Texy.
jenny – Do you know how insanely jealous I am of people who are in New England right now? I’m all the way out in California. I get the Giants game on Comcast Sportsnet right now. :P Thank goodness for the interwebs.
So ready for the game… I cancelled MLB.tv last month and can’t wait to see this. Hoping for a good game tonight.
No problem, Texy, was just worried about you. I can relate about work!
Just turned on my ESPN and the cable schedule says MLB, teams to be announced. Hoping it’s OUR game and not some other game… :::frowns:::
Papelbon was NOT AT ALL happy about that video.
Josh’s expression was priceless. Paul Byrd saying, “Is this for REAL?”
I haven’t seen it, obviously, but do you mean to tell me that Paps was actually embarrassed about something?
I tried to post a comment with a link to the Comcast Sportsnet website, but it said it was being held for moderation. Is this normal?
Here’s all the video you could every want:

Papelbon is an incredibly good sport. o.0 (I liked the part where Lester went and sat down next to Beckett.)
I apologize for my comment earlier about being jealous of people in New England. After reading it again, I realize I sounded a bit like an ass. Sorry for that.
I love how the only thing Papi could do is laugh when he was interviewing Paps.
Beckett in turtleneck/sleeves! Fall is coming!
Glad you’re doing OK–and glad to be here, TG!
(I tried to hang out on another blog last night–I won’t say which one. But nowhere near as fun as over here.)
Texy, thanks for the link! Something else to laugh at in my vast spare time.
Nice 1-2-3 inning.
So I have the game on both computer and TV. This should be interesting.
5 pitch inning? i’m fine with that!
Becketty-Boo! Looking good so far. Three outs on … six pitches? Five? Nice.
OK, bats. Let’s jump all over these guys.
Wow. That’s all I got. Just wow.
Ok so last night’s game had me in tears. After Pap gave up that second run, I just turned the game off.
Please, Beckett, execute today!
Texy, thank you so much for the link to that video.
Five pitches, Commander? Thank you.
Five pitches, four for strikes. Yes.
Pedie!
Yeah Pleats! That Papelbon video is classic.
Pedey!
Trying to finish making dinner and brownies. Beckett on tv on my birthday, so good. I had the game on FSN last night, the Florida channel. Still had Nesn online.
Okay it’s official — Dirty Dancing has been ruined for life for me. Pretty much ruined.
Lets go YOUK!
Happy birthday, Karen!
Piney, you are not alone. I’ll never even be able to think of Patrick Swayze without thinking of Paps.
Hey Karen — Happy Birthday!!!
Happy birthday, Karen!
Happy birthday, Karen!
I’m putting dinner together too. Had to watch Ells-Pedey-Papi on ESPN first, though.
Yay birthday! Hope Beckett brings you a good one, Karen!
Happy Birthday, Karen!
Oh, oh shit.
Aw crap.
BecKett
OK, BecKett. Hang tough here, big guy. Good K. Dirty curve is dirty.
I do believe the Commander brought the filthy stuff tonight.
Oh sweet lord, I just finished watching the Pap videos. I am at a complete lost for words.
I love Beckett’s “disappointed in self walking off the field” face – he knows he hung that pitch to Aybar. He’d never throw Pedey under the bus, but I’m wishing he’d come up with that play …
17 pitches, 16 strikes. We’re in Pigpen-dirty territory here, folks. . . .
My mouth is agape. Beckett’s stuff is positively NASTY.
17 pitches and 16 for strikes? Damn. Beckett’s stuff is filthy tonight.
Dumb fan.
Keep your fucking hands to yourself, asshole!
