    Why is NESN doing Comedy All-Stars? It’s a SPORTS network.

    The ace of the staff is on the hill and the PawSox are still well represented on the right side of the infield, should be another good one.

    How are you guys ? I’m hoping that Chone Figgins wont act like Crawford in this one.

    I had a lot of caffeine, so I should be here for a while, at the very least for as long as Wake’s in the game (which will, hopefully, be a long time).

  5. 2009 May 13 at 9:45 pm

    @Sam: I hope he does since Crawford had to leave tonight’s game early

    Hi all. Another late night for us east coasters. I am hopefully for a game that makes my continued tiredness and lack of productivity at work worth it. I am so grateful tomorrow is a day game.

    Let’s GO RED SOX!

  7. 2009 May 13 at 9:50 pm

    I’ve always liked Torii.

    Stopping by to say hey. I’ll be glad when our boys are back East again so I can watch the games. In the meantime, I’m doing the sensible thing again tonight and heading to bed. Enjoy the game, y’all…and GO SOX!

    Oh, lord, Millar, what is that on your face?

  10. 2009 May 13 at 9:55 pm

    Oh, I found out the sell the Drew Crew t-shirt in Kenmore Square. I hoped you could buy them online, but no such luck. However, if any MA peeps wanna buy and send me one…I’ll make a nice deposit in your paypal account, buy you a shirt too and be your BFF forever. Just saying….

    What do people think of Santana pitching tomorrow? I am hoping he has a little rust on him…and maybe his presence lights a fire under Brad Penny’s ass.

    And congrats once again to Clay for smoking everyone away with the PawSox. It’s not his time, but good lord…I want him CALLED UP.

  11. 2009 May 13 at 9:57 pm

    @ecl1958: sensible and smart….ah…I wish I had your good sense. Hopefully you will WAKE up to good news. (pun completely intended).

  12. 2009 May 13 at 9:57 pm

    “So what’re you doing, Jim?”
    “I’m going to Cooperstown.”

    Beautiful.

    @shelley1005: Brad Penny as a trade baits in ESPN rumors.

    btw, I need updates, since all the TV’s are taken, and Pedey is out of the lineup. ):

  15. 2009 May 13 at 10:01 pm

    @Sam: Well, I love Clay…always have and think he should have Penny’s spot. However….I also think if Penny can settle in, he is a steal for his price. Unless we can get a decent SS for him….I am not sure I would trade away decent pitching just yet. I am all conflicted about it….

    HI DAVE!!

  17. 2009 May 13 at 10:02 pm

    @Sam: can we send Lugo with him?

  18. 2009 May 13 at 10:02 pm

    @Sam: I am sure at some point…Pedey will convince the bench to tie up Tito and he’ll get himself into the game. LOL

  19. 2009 May 13 at 10:02 pm

    Oh Dave Roberts. I heart you. Just sayin…

  20. 2009 May 13 at 10:03 pm

    @shelley1005: I’m going to the park next week, I can pick you one up. Shoot me an email, and we’ll coordinate.

    @Sam: Ditto Sam. I need updated too. Two freaking shows recording on this DVR so I can’t switch channels until 11.

    Millar’s facial hair makes me sad.

  23. 2009 May 13 at 10:05 pm

    @Kimd: up to $7 bucks for Papi’s HR…he better hit it soon.

    Here’s my awesome news for the night… my kids were possibly exposed to swine flu on Sunday. Infector is being tested tomorrow. Now, I know it’s nothing worse than regular flu but kids with flu = crabby parent.

    @Fenway West: I think when teams look JUST at his errors, which is 36, err, make that 37, they’d be scared.

    @shelley1005: According to Extra Bases, Pedey was livid about being held out of the lineup tonight.

    Apparently he launched a profanity-laced tirade at Tito when he found out.

    Gotta love the Elf.

    @Fenway West: It’s all to a good cause. All to a good cause! Anyone want to join the fund – all proceeds to my husbands PMC (jimmy fund/dana farber) ride in August.

    @Fenway West: I’d do a Youk batting-stance-happy-dance for a Papi homer

  30. 2009 May 13 at 10:07 pm

    @Texy: That would be GREAT. I will get you an email.

    @Kimd: Oh no. I’ll be sending healthy vibes your way. We have 2 confirmed cases in my county, but nothing serious.

  31. 2009 May 13 at 10:07 pm

    @Sam: But then they look deeper, and see that the reason his errors have gone DOWN in the last three years is that his range has diminished, and he’s not getting to as many balls as he should. (Which makes his deal look even MORE wonderful.)

  32. 2009 May 13 at 10:07 pm

    @Kimd: Where at? That sucks. My mom’s a teacher back in Texas, and they went a little overboard shutting schools down there. Swine flu has been a massive FAILHAT.

  33. 2009 May 13 at 10:08 pm

    @lone1c: One of the things I LOVE about Pedey….his intensity and wanting to constantly be in there and playing. That’s a guy you want at the end of the season when everyone is hurt and dog tired.

    @Texy: Like my home town, actually. They shut the high school down for a week (or at least until the CDC told them to stop with the closings).

  35. 2009 May 13 at 10:09 pm

    @Texy: Swine flu was confirmed at my school and we did…nothing. Same with norovirus. And I wonder why I’m always sick.

    @Texy: Exposed (possibly) but my husbands nephew – he’s from Framingham. So there…. It’s totally a FAILHAT and I’m not worried about death, etc but 3 kids with flu = miserable parent and I’ll be the “that” parent that introduces swine flu to our area.

    Umm…did DO say that Lugo has had a great start this year??? And then followed by lots of compliments by Dave??? Am I going insane and hearing things???
