Romance and Red Sox

[jlh]

Does this trade mean I can't use my Johnny Damon icon anymore? Or maybe I should to immortalize what he should look like, because I'm telling you people, I've seen him clean-shaven with short hair and he looks like a moron, and I'm willing to bet there will be a Samson effect. (Which reminds me, need Varitek photo for a Schroder/Varitek pitchers thing.) As for the Red Sox themselves, there are many things I could say, but mostly: Not getting too overheated about the stupid shit they pull in the off season is one of the ways I've been able to maintain my sanity all these years. The 2004 team will always exist, world without end amen.

Then again, I'm training to be an historian so you might not want to listen to me.

There's a meme going around about favorite fictional romantic couples, which reminded me that I'd done this post a while back. I may revisit by trying to get to 10 books, 10 movies, 10 television, if I've a mind to.

I KNOW!!! Even with the not-much, they are still over-paying him, because that's the Yankee way. I think that sometimes Steinbrenner offers these incredible deals just to screw Boston - I can't believe that he thinks these players actually deserve these payrolls. Case in point: A-Rod. You can't tell me that his performance has earned him that pay.

One of the sports talk hosts on my favorite station here in ATL is from Boston and he said that it's a good thing that Johnny can swing a baseball bat, because if he couldn't, he'd be digging ditches. His book reads like it was written by a 5-year-old.

Well, then he's even dumber if he actually decided to write it himself!

Ew, A-Rod. If there is a man I cannot stand . . .
