LET'S PLAY BALL !!!!!!!!!

or...... SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET (Caroline) !!!!!

It was a spectacle.... no wait... a SPECTACULAR night at the Fens last night !!!.. it was ALMOST a spactacle but NEVAH IN BEANTOWN !!!
Kudos to the Boston Red Sox baseball club for kicking off this 2010 campaign with some serious style and showmanship !!! Even Mother Nature must be a Red Sox fan handing out a gorgeous early April night in Beantown and climaxing the overall feeling of the event with a game time temperature of 69 degrees !!!! ok, it was only 67 but.... I'd hate to owe her 2 !!!!! well...  um....

Fly-overs, fireworks, Pedro Martinez' (still looking for his daddy?) return to throw out the first pitch, a serious hottie singing our National Anthem...I couldn't even focus on the words... but I WAS standing at attention during her "inspiring" rendition !!!. even Johnny Pesky, tear-streaked, uttering those 2... um, 3, right Johnny??? immortal words.. "Let's PLAY BALL!".. hell even LeBron James, fresh off a Celtic spanking, and Dr. Dre were in attendance for this glorious event.. sorry "King".... THE HELL I AM !!!!!!!!! see yea in play-offs !!!!!!!!!!!!!
BUT despite the circus-like atmosphere of all these opening night ceremonies, it was a 5 year old that stole the show.. for me at least.. JOSHUA SACCO issued a soon to be classic version of the Herb Brooks' "Miracle on Ice" speech... check this shit out !!!!



You tell 'em kid !!!!!!!!!!! Apparently the Sox were in awe of that speech and couldn't  recover from it's affects until the 5th inning.... more in a bit !!!

Anyway, Steven Tyler sang God Bless America during the 7th inning stretch with yet another hottie, um his girlfriend??.. more like Liv's friend !!!  SHAMOKIN !!!!!!!!!! God bless his 62 year old ass, but I kept thinking a little Joe Perry melody (or a bit of THC) to drown out Tyler's voice may have been easier on the ears... j/k Steve... still love Aerosmith, but apparently one man does not a rock group make !!!!
Even Neil Diamond, donning a "Keep the Dodgers in Brooklyn" jacket????? sang Sweet Carline LIVE... ok dude, but when in Red Sox Nation do as the Nation does... and burn that frigging jacket in effigy !!!!


Sox ACE .. despite what the the "armchair athletes" say.... Josh Beckett took the bump to open this 2010 season. Stick to your recliners boys and let the professionals start on opening night !!! Remember you are ARMCHAIR (wanna-be) Athletes !!! Wanna-be's... the worst critics around.. kinda like an ex-smoker preaching about quitting the nasty "habit"... But I'm not bitter at these guy's pre-season remarks... I'm STILL not sure what I wanna be when I grow up !!!! But, hopefully when they grow up, they'll understand about the intangibles and the finer aspects of the business that is our national past time.

But enough (or MORE) about losers !!! Beckett matched up against Mr Manboobs himself, C.C .....
although it's a toss-up for that title tween Sabathia and Joba the HUTT !!! Man boobs... BLECK !! I prefer THESE myself...

Now THAT's dedication to the Nation - wee doggy !!!

Circus over, the on-field fireworks began !!! although it appeared the Sox had blown their load (who wouldn't with that hottie singing on the BIG stage?) when shooting off their fireworks during the opening ceremonies.

Yup, it was the Yankmees supplying the spark for the first half of the game taking a 5-1 lead into the 5th inning. But THAT my friends is when CC Fatassia ran out of gas... whew, thank God too... have you seen what happens when CC has gas ?????

Not a pretty sight and certainly would have been a BUMmer last night !!!

ANYWAY !!!! Our boys reloaded and brought out the big guns midway (NOT the island!) through the contest !!! The "eruption" started in the bottom of the 5th frame. Garnering only one hit until that point, our boys strung together 3 singles to post a second tally on an RBI single by.... MARCO SCUTARO !!! Genius THEO !!!! and welcome to the Nation, Marco !!!
Despite leaving runners on second and third, the seed of a comeback had been planted.

On to the 6th... Pedey walked and VMart doubled the little guy to third... can you say YOUKAH !?!?!?!?
Youk tripled to right driving in two 2 runs.. wait, what??? did I just say Youkah tripled ???? Who'da thunk he could run 270 feet without stopping for a break.. AND one of his OWN burgers !?!?!?

DeCAF !!!!!!!!!!! I think I can handle this one !!!! (hint, hint) geez that Beckett Burger was an ottoman !!!

Ok, Papi up but he splinters he stick... can you say BELTRE ?!?!?!? Adrian Beltre slams the first offering to center field driving in Youkah to knot it at 5 !!! And a Nation welcome to you too ADRIAN !!!!

On to the 7th... The EVIL Empire strikes back... grrrrrrrrr.. RamRam  and Ut Oh Oki promptly give up 2 runs. Ok(i?) seriously... how the hell does a pitcher that allows two inherited runners to score... AND GIVE UP THE LEAD deserve to earn the victory ?!?!?!? Hey Hadeki... you owe Pedey dinner !!! Take him out for a Youk Burger !!!! (read on).

So, it was at this point that started receiving posts on my FB wall and calls from some Yankmee fan friends asking me what the score was. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !!!! Obviously typical fans of the "Empire" gloating in short-lived success....

Apparently inspired (I know I was !!!) by Steven Tyler's rendition on God Bless America (or the hottie he was with), da da da da da... Scutaro singles (AGAIN) and Pedey stepped up to the dish... and launched all 5 feet 6 inches and 160 pounds into a high hard one and deposited that pill into the MONSTAH seats !!!!!! TIE GAME - 7-7 !!!!

But they weren't done yet !!! Youkah doubled, scooted to 3rd on a wild pitch and scored the go ahead on a passed ball by Pasada !!!! 8-7 and first and LAST lead of the night for the Sox !!! Oh, Whore Hey, stick to the... oh never mind !!!!!!

Danny Bard held the lead in the 8th... woo, at least PART of the bullpen came to play last night.. geesh !!!! and the Sox weren't done offensively manufacturing an insurance tally in the bottom of the 8th on a single by Mike Cameron, a walk by SCOOT and ANOTHER RBI by the "big" guy... PEDEY !!!

Paps came on in the 9th with visions of playoff ghosts dancing in his head - NOT an Irish Jig mind you !!!! Jigman wiped out all memories of playoffs past picking up his first of many saves to come capping this star-studded spectacular opening night of the 2010 Red Sox baseball season !!!

The Sox banged out 12 hits being led by Youkah's 2... yes, TWO doubles AND that triple and Pedey's big fly and 3 RBI.... Youk's gonna need this day off to recover !!!!

Also, the new Nation trio of Cam, Scoot and Beltre certainly made their induction profound... collectively going 5-9 with 2 walks and 3 RBI... WELCOME TO OUR NATION BOYS !!!! and who the HELL could have said that this offense would be lacking this yeah ?!?!?! musta been them damn Armchair Athletes !!!

Kudos to the schedule makers for giving us this day off to gloat in a great Red Sox victory.. one of many to come....

Next up, Jonny Lester leads the brigade against... um... yuck, bleck, phooey !!! The crybaby himself... A.J. Burnett... hmmm... A.J.... A$$HOLE JERKFACE !?!?!?!?



Thanks for stopping in for a visit. It's just my opinion, so please PAHDON it. Y'all come back now, ya heah !! Nuf Ced

This Is Only a Test !!!

WEEEEEEEEEEE DOGGIEEEEEEEE !!!
 

Alrighty then. I got THAT outta my system. But wait....

THIS IS ONLY A TEST... 
If this had been an actual blog post, you would all been informed of where to tell ME to go !!!!!

AIGHT AIGHT AIGHT, seriousness (yeah OK) for a moment. To a great degree this post is only a test. It's Been Awhile... since I've written on my blog... It's been awhile... Actually it has been quite some time... and for those of you that followed me last year, I'm not sure if you'll take this as a good thing or a bad thing... BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT..... I'M BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK !!! HA HA HA.

I'm glad you've all MISSED me... thank god you can't hit the side of a barn !!!! wait, did I just dis MYSELF ??? WTF ?!?!?

Anyway, my original purpose in life... no wait, my original intent of posting today was to test the links and auto-post services that I had set up last year to be sure they still work.... like I'll ever remember how to fix them if they don't !!! Oh well...

But THEN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! drum roll ................................ I logged onto Facebook to find THIS posted on my wall by fellow Nation member Brian Osborn.... This is humbling (ok, you all know how humble I am but it's the thought that counts, right?)


I'm not sure what I did to deserve such an honor... um.... oh YEAH.... I HATE THE YANKEES !!!! Wow, "hate" is SUCH a strong word, but oh so APPROPRIATE !!!!!

Ok, I went off on a tangent there. If you followed me last year, note the changes to my page... NO MORE "F"ING ADS that don't pay shit anyway... THAT'S RIGHT !!!! In case you don't realize the implications..... it means that there is NO ONE "looking over my shoulder" ready to censor me !!!! FREESTYLE !!!!!!!!!  ummmmmmmmm... yeah wut eva.

Damn, I hope I remember how to write. And don't say it's like riding a bike cuz I forgot how to do that too !!!! If ya don't use "it", ya lose it right ????? OHHHHHHHHHHHH.. I'm talking about my writing "skills" !!! Get your minds outta the guttah !!!!

WHEW !!!!! slow down, John... and I haven't even had a cup of coffee YET !!!!!!!!!

To all you "NEWBIES" .... you obviously landed on this page by sheer BAD luck, here's the skinny. This is my blog. NUF CED

No seriously, I had no life last year so I was able to post a lot, mostly recaps (with a twist) of Red Sox games... Over there in the right sidebar there are links to last year's posts... over there >>>>>>>
BACK "ISSUES" (oh, don't worry... you'll know what days my back is killing me!)...

Although I continue to have no life... spring has sprung... or is trying to spring anyway !!!! So, I figured maybe I'd dust off the ole blog page and get ready for beginning of the 2010 RED SOX WORLD SERIES season. I haven't yet decided what approach I'll be takin, but if this post is any indication, now's your chance to abandon ship !!!!!!!!! 

Truth be told, I won't be posting everyday like last year.(you can thank me now!!!) but only when I feel the need to "hear" myself rant and rave (which is usually everyday anyway, so.........) Damn I keep losing it... my train of thought that is !!!! Plus it started stressing me out feeling like I HAD to post... it kinda became like ...... like work, and you all know I do NOT do THAT !!!! (damn I needa job).

OKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY !!!! Now for the fine print...............

If you choose to personally attack me, you WILL be featured on this blog (and it won't be pretty !!!).


Ok, I HAD to throw that last line in there due to a douche bag that called me a traitor and disgrace to the Nation last year because MY opinion was that the Sox would have a tough time in the play-offs. Um... wait... They DID, didn't they???? hmmmmm, wuttah frigging moron !!! But, he did receive my buddy's coveted ASSHOLE AWARD !!! If you can't take the heat stay the hell outta my kitchen !!! ooooo, Hell's Kitchen.... reminds me of Daredevil... and you KNOW that reminds me ooooooooooooooooooooooooooof................

 
WOWSER !!!! What a HOTTIE !!! ok, I think I'm having front "issues" now !!!! I gotta go use it so I don't lose it... LMFAO !!!

Smell ya latah... still have some work to do on the blog and other stuff that's connected.. HAH... my blogging buddies that link to my feed are gonna shit when this hits their walls... HA HA HA...

Oh, and to anyone that honored me by saying I could and should write a book... I'd be willing to bet you're having a change of heart right now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OHHHHHHHH.. I know, I know... don't quit my day job... oh wait.. I don't have one !!!! This is gonna be a looooong season !!!!!
