Forget everything you saw this past weekend in the Bronx. Forget the sweep, forget Lester limping off the mound, forget the 16-7 mini-massacre: it was …

Eh, so the bad guys got the division today. It’s nothing a wild card clinching celebration and the first pitch of the 2009 ALDS won’t …

Even though we're living in the world of wild card acceptance, it doesn't make it any easier to see our guys get positively owned, spanked …

I have a drinking game I like to play whenever the Sox face the Yanks. It goes like this: When the game starts, I crack …

And sometimes on a line-up card. Last night’s start by Josh Beckett featuring Victor Martinez behind the plate should set every one’s expectations for the …

I apologize for the lack of posting today. I did concoct a pretty good excuse involving an alien probe, a truckload of lumber and the …

I tweeted this last night and, having thought about it for a while, I have to say I still feel the same today. I’m not …

When Abraham Lincoln invented the wild card, it was a proud moment for America. Up until that point, we had war, famine, threat of alien …

It’ll be tough, since the guy’s certainly got a lot of incentive going into tonight’s game. First, there’s that whole Cy Young thing, not to …

She’s unquestionably hot. She played Elektra. She knows her Red Sox. And she understands the “proper” way to sport a Yankees cap. Sure, it sounds …

After a loss like last night’s, “pre-2004” Red tends to take over. The guy who looks at the abomination of losing a sizable lead to …

Terry Francona couldn’t have scripted the weekend series with Baltimore any better himself. Strong starts by Buchholz, Lester and Dice-K, solid outings from the bullpen, …

Don’t look now, but the Red Sox are just five measly games behind your team, you squirrely bastard. And as you hit up the Angels …

Any debate as to whether or not Camden Yards is officially Fenway II was shattered last night after Ortiz laced a double in the top …

I’m not gonna shed too many tears for the Orioles and their fans. Yes, it must suck to be fielding such a godawful team and …

If life was like the movies, then the last playoff game I ever took in with Dad would have been game three of the 2003 …

Somebody, anybody, give me one good reason this guy is in the line-up? If I were at the game last night I would have charged …

Because he knows that for the Angels, there’s nothing that’ll wash away the taste of last night’s loss like beating up big time on Commander …

I’ve come to the conclusion that the thing I love most about these games against the Angels is watching the managers go through the motions. …

First things first: Who the f@#k was that guy in the Daisuke Matsuzaka costume last night? Because the last time I’d heard anything from the …

Look, we all now how this post-season is going to pan out: The Sox and Yanks are going to collide in the ALCS. But before …

Considering our well-documented struggles against Matt Garza, I had a nagging feeling that this might end up being one of those well-pitched gems that doesn’t …

If you’d meant to give to the Jimmy Fund during last month’s telethon and never got around to it, or if you’d planned to stop …

Sox and Rays rained out last night, so we’ll play two on Sunday. Rangers and M’s also rained out, so they’ll play two on Sunday …

I often wonder how different things would have been if those sick f@%ks hadn’t altered the course of history eight years ago today. From that …

Heading out to Somerville tonight to catch the Living Colour reunion show at Johnny D’s. So it seemed an appropriate time to spin the iPod. …
