Michael Jackson’s dead, Geovany Soto tested positive for weed at the WBC, and wallabies hopped up on poppies are trampling people in Australia… what the eff is happening with the world?
I would say I’d look to baseball for normalcy here, but I have to leave to get MRI’d at 7:30…
@Liza: I heard about Michael Jackson while on the way home. just wow.
Epic day today. Meetings with idiot project managers drive me to the absolute edge of my patience.
But, HAPPY SMOLTZ DAY!!!!!!!
@Liza: In the midst of all the terrible news, the wallabies on drugs story amuses me. Maybe a little too much. :X
Happy Smoltz Day everyone! I am so excited….for our Red Sox Nation holiday.
And as Surviving Grady says…it is going to be smoltztastic!
Still at work (BOO) but gonna watch on ML B.TV…
Ah kids….it’s almost time to open our Smoltzie present! Gather around the Red Sox tree.
It’s Smoltz O’Clock
STRIKE ONE!
That was a NASTY slider. Omnomnom.
aw! Don said and I quote: John Smoltz’s Red Sox career is under way. epic glee
That stache distracted him…..and no one can blame him for that.
@Liza:
For reals, Iran, my governor is an unfaithful, yet still boring dolt, Shaq and LeBron together, Smoltz is no longer a Brave..
..what in the funkinwaggle is the world coming to…?
Brad Penny tapping John Farrell’s right shoulder while Wake taps his left shoulder….umm….hilarity.
Um… shit.
He’ll have to be Houdini to get out of this.
@shelley1005: HAHAH. Oh, man, I’d like to see video of that.
Joe C just said “It’s one-nothing Atlanta”
Happy Smoltz Day !
Michael Jackson dead !?
and Happy NBA Draft night.
@Texy: Good job, Castig…
The Yanks are actually pounding pretty hard on Lowe atm.
Oh, good lord.
What the efffffff.
So far, I am not enjoying Smoltz Day…but I will delay judgment.
the fuck.
Thanks JD!
Thank you, Mr. Drew.
Erm, this is not going how I had planned.
well Smoltz said not to get too excited for his first start. And now we know why.
Okay, that was fugly. Hafta go get MRI’d now. Send whatever extra good thoughts you have (read: that aren’t going to Smoltz :P) toward MGH for me, ‘kay?
@Liza: GOOD LUCK.
@Liza: Good luck…sending healthy thoughts your way.
Hooray – we’ll take a broken bat single.
Make that two broken bat singles.
whoo hoo….Tek and Ells….
Alright Smoltzie….time to buckle in….and bring it!
@Texy: Hey, all.
Um, yeah, so I guess that was an ugly first inning for Smoltz.
He’s gotta quit throwing BP.
OK, Smoltzie, show us sumpin’.
Thank you, Soon-To-Be-American.
@fc: ONE OF US. ONE OF US. ONE OF US.
1-2-3. Much better.
1-2-3. As it should be.
Nice 1-2-3 Smoltzie…hopefully nerves out of the way and on to the game of baseball.
@Texy: If every Red Sox fan sent the team a check for $5, we could probably pay for Bay’s next contract. . . .
Smoltz helmet looks too small for his head.
Have you all seen the new BK ad? It’s umm…suggestive to say the least.

NINE pitches to strike out Smoltz?
Cue-ball Pedey.
@lone1c: Old guy’s got some gas left in the tank.
@shelley1005: Burger King: when they say “have it your way,” it now has a completely different meaning.
JD runs out a grounder—nice. (Twenty-four pitches and counting this inning.)
