Wild Thing style. Won(?) a bet w/ that wily Greek, Youkilis.
More from MLB.com

Let me just say that this was possibly the greatest day ever. We opened the Globe @ 11:30 with a couple of rounds, then walked over to Fenway to soak in the sweetness. Walked around the stadium, which was buzzing like crazy, then hit the right field roof deck, where we promptly ganked ample rail space for a perfect view, save the morons down below of us.

Beckett went through a rough, 40+ pitch first, but Towers did too, and the Sox had an early 3-1 lead. Beckett started getting quick, easy outs and steamrolled through the 7th. Meanwhile, Papi jacked one, Wily Mo dropped one, and Lowell continued the revitalization project by going 4-fo-4 w/ 3 dubs. Nasty.

Pappy mowed down clowns in the 9th for the save, and we all filed out, despite repeated attempts by the idiot in front of us to get me to beat the crap out of him. All in all, a well conceived, perfectly executed, and highly memorable vacation day to see the Sox open at home. Can’t wait to do it again.

According to this:
Boston Globe’s Red Sox buzz

-Sox may go hard after Renteria
-Red Sox meet with Delgado
-Sox still trying for Hudson
-Wells announcement Tuesday

Pats’ Weis named Notre Dame head coach

He better forget everything he ever heard about Notre Dame until the Pats win the Super Bowl 39 in January. If they don’t, I’m holding him AND his botched stomach-stapling surgery responsible for everything.

Eli Manning’s line yesterday @ Baltimore:
4-for-18, 27 yards, 2 INTs, 1 fumble, 0.00 QB rating

Kentucky to beat everyone in March

You heard it here second. According to just about everyone at ESPN, who from here on out are never wrong, the ‘Cats are a lock for the Final Four.

The freshmen just keep getting exponentially better, making UK the youngest and scariest team in college hoops.

Except for St. Jerome’s College in Oregon, which fields a team of knife-wielding Albanian midgets.

Kobe still pissed at Karl

If it hasn’t happened already, I think Jimmy Kimmel needs to do his Karl Malone bit and re-enact this whole thing. Because Karl Malone wearing a cowboy hat and saying he’s “hunting little Mexican girls” is comedy gold.

Good God, y’all, that was no joke.

I stayed up along with probably 80 million other New Englanders for what we all basically thought was going to be no other reason than to have the stake driven into our hearts. Like in that Keanu Reeves movie.

But we avoided that for about 15 hours, and we get to do it all over again tonight. And hopefully the next night and the night after that.

The top of the 6th last night had to be the most painful half-inning I’ve ever experienced on any level of baseball.

And I’m a 17-year veteran of the South Atlantic League, so that’s sayin something. I’m serious.

I wish to publicly announce that I hope either Hidonki Crapsui or Jeter or both smash their faces into a stadium seat again before they leave Fenway.

Also, Matsui’s giant face on a giant widescreen TV is just disturbing.
