    TGIF, People!

    What a day…what a week!

    The hazing photos are still cracking me up.

    Raise your hand if you’re relieved to see VMart behind the plate tonight…

    I am soooooooooooooo tired-can barely keep my eyes open.

    Jacoby, that helps ;-)

    mlb.tv is all messed up for me. I have video, but some other bizarre audio.

    oh crap, Pedie.

    How many people are at the game tonight? It sounds like a small crowd.

  8. 2009 September 18 at 7:11 pm

    @Dragon_Sniper: Now I have the Red Sox radio feed. Sheesh. Fix it! I wanna hear Eck!

    @jules:

    I raise my hand whenever Varitek isn’t beind the plate :).

    Hopefully tonight is a nice rocking chair game, I have my friends bachelor party tomorrow which should lead to a lot of excitement.

    “…best change-up in the leage…but I tend to get carried away…”

    LOL, Eck.

    I’m not a “Tek-basher,” but those past balls were brutal.

    @jules:

    Santana, Hamels, Trevor Hoffman (still?).

    Of course we all know the best changeup belongs to Mr Pedro Martinez.

    the warning track has been the red sox best friend this week.

    speaking of Kotchman…..LaRoche has been insanely good since going over to the Braves. Of course he is playing everyday.

    @jules: VERY happy to see VMart back there, yes.

    @shelley1005: @Dragon_Sniper: My video feed is really odd — it has a big gray area around it. Oddly, it was perfectly normal when I pulled up one of the other games. :::is puzzled:::

  21. 2009 September 18 at 7:32 pm

    @jules: FINALLY an answer to the timeless question: Who let the dogs out?

    I guess the umps aren’t afraid to make an appeal in Baltimore!!!

    @ecl1958: I have the grey area on the sides too. *frowns*

  25. 2009 September 18 at 7:36 pm

    My computer keeps dying on me. It must not understand that Clay is pitching…and that I must be watching.

    @Dragon_Sniper: Of course, it’ll probably work just fine for the Cardinals game. I hope. :::checks clock:::

    I’m dissapointed they didn’t have any teletubbies this year.

    @ecl1958: I hope so! I’m always psyched for a Cubs/Cards series.

    Hopefully Smoltz pitches well tonight.

  33. 2009 September 18 at 7:40 pm

    Clay probably doesn’t love that particular change up. Game tied.

  34. 2009 September 18 at 7:41 pm

    @jules: Eck was trying to take my job as the #1 Buchholz fan.

    Come on Buch…get the out…and let the bats move on.

    @Dragon_Sniper: This should be a fun weekend of baseball in that regard. And they’ve got the Sunday Night Baseball! A nice reward for what will be a weekend of hard housework for me.

    @shelley1005: Shelley, Brad Penny is pitching against the Dodgers tomorrow. I’m so watching that.

    Speaking of…THIS is awesome–gotta love that.

    dammmmmmit, Pedie. You are NOT Jacoby.

  42. 2009 September 18 at 7:48 pm

    @Dragon_Sniper: I wish I could wish Smoltz well. Just can’t do it.

    Oh Pedey. Pouts.

  43. 2009 September 18 at 7:48 pm

    Oh Pedey. Another A for effort.

    @BostonGirl: ummmmm…a bit jealous?

    Seriously, that is great! Is there a video link on NESN?

    @fc Yep my best friend and I made a sign that said “Re-Sign JAY BAY OR I’M BRINING LUGO BACK” and they put us on the pregame show. I got to say Hi to Rice. Also we went in for pre-batting practice and we were holding up the sign and i saw him and i was like “Oh my gosh is Jason Bay, I love you.” He was to far away to hear the last part but he came over and looked at my sign and laughed. He signed my hat. It was a good day, Oh and Perdoia asked what my sign said so i showed it to him and he laughed alot. Oh and i got Buchholtz’s autograph.

    @fc I’m sorry, i didn’t know you guys were there! I had seats 3 rows from the right side of the dugout, best day of my life. I went to the second game btw.

    @BostonGirl: Next time you do that, can I stow away in your purse or something?

    @BostonGirl: FC and I went to both games as well. Good times had by all.
