Friday there was no post on this website. There was all kinds of speculation as to what caused this. Red was away, but where was Denton? Protective Custody? Too tired after an all-night mime performance? Good guesses, but the truth is I had nothing to say. All of the distractions that keep me sane during the off-season have worn thin. Theo-gate, the Manny trade potential, Tejada, Damon, even the possibility of getting Roger back…I just don’t care. I want baseball. Real live baseball. With Remy and D.O. (who won best sportscaster in MA) telling me about it in their own intelligent and funny style. I want all of that now.
But, less than a week until pitchers and catchers report, we are being buried by a mid-winter blizzard. What about the Fenway construction? Will the equipment truck get out on time? Help…
