My third favorite Texan* on the Red Sox** is not content with just delivering a video message to Red Sox Nation to Cowboy Up*** -- he's gotta come tell us in person. Kevin Millar is riding in on his horse into Fenway tonight to deliver the first pitch.
Someone call his uniform jersey from back out of storage- it's making an encore appearance.
* His birth certificate may say he was born in Los Angeles, but make no mistake, Millar is a Texan now. He played college ball for Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas, and still lives near there in the off-season. I may or may not be able to do the Lamar University cheer, since I grew up not far away from there. OK, I totally can do the cheer.
** Like I said before, he may not be on the roster, but make no mistake, he's still a part of the team.
*** I may or may not have rewatched that video clip of his ALCS game 5 intro at least 10 times. OK, I totally have watched that clip 10+ times.

It's funny, when I saw that Bill Mueller threw out the first pitch last night, I was almost surprised that Millar wasn't in the dugout with the team :)
I think the Red Sox ownership just needs to come to grips with the fact that he's still ours, give him his jersey and two empty water bottles, and send him out to the bullpen to play with the band.
