Heard on the radio today....Hugo Chavez is rooting for the Indians. Yesterday Vicente Fox was a guest of Jerry Jones at the Cowboys/Pats game. He is a big Cowboys fan.

That’s a Nomar Garciaparra special— swing hard at the first pitch and go deep.

And that was just after McCarver was talking about the Red Sox wanting Dice-K to throw more fastballs.
Moron
The game plan for game 2 was for Shill to throw more offspeed stuff given Cleveland’s penchant for hitting fastballs. Dice-K claims that he learned much from watching that game.
Guess not.

Why isn’t Jacoby Ellsbury playing? Shorty is doing squat in the leadoff position and Crisp is simply a bad hitter who cannot create big plays like Jacoby can.

I'm gonna be absent from posting for awhile. I had to pause the game just as it started due to a call from work. Not sure when I will catch up to y'all.
Go Red Sox!!
