We want Theo back…….
December 27th, 2005 by Ian · Comments Off ·
Well the Sox lost out on another free agent again, as Kevin Millwood signed a deal with the Texas Rangers. Once again the Red flops have undervalued another player. The Sox felt that he was only worth a 3 yr $30 million dollar contract, while the Rangers gave him a 4 yr $48 million dollar [...]

Why does UCONN play cupcake games?
December 23rd, 2005 by Ian · Comments Off ·
OK I am actually writing this blog during the UCONN-Morehead State basketball game and it makes me wonder, why does UCONN schedule games likes this. We are actually paying Morehead State $90,000 to play this game. The Morehead State coach didn’t even want to play this game. He felt his team was not to the [...]

Way to go Sox………NOT!!!!!!!!
December 23rd, 2005 by Ian · Comments Off ·
Well the Red Sox showed the Yankees something last night by signing John Flaherty to a contract. This will hurt the Yankees because Flaherty was Randy Johnson’s personal catcher. Oh by the way, I did forget to mention that Flaherty wasn’t in the Yankee’s plans for next year as they had signed Kelly Stinnet as [...]

Johnny Damon to the Evil Empire
December 21st, 2005 by Ian · 1 Comment ·
What a way to wake up this morning. I had an offline message from a Yankees fan telling me the bad news. Johnny Damon is going to sign a 4 year $52 million contract with the New York Yankees.
The freaking Yankees are you kidding me. The Yanks hadn’t done a thing on the free agent [...]

Parking tickets
December 17th, 2005 by Ian · Comments Off ·
Have you ever gotten a parking ticket for parking where your not supposed to? And do you think to yourself, this fine is a little ridiculous? If you do, don’t be like this idiot.
This guy in Portsmouth, New Hampshire received a parking ticket for parking in a handicapped spot, which carries a $100 fine. There’s [...]

Well still no word on the Nomar front as to where he is going to sign. Rumors were that he was going to have a decision by Thursday. Stay tuned because if he does sign with the Yanks, everyone will be invited to my Nomar jersey burning ceremony.
In other news, the Doug Mientkiewicz-Red Sox ball [...]

Say It Aint So Nomar?
December 13th, 2005 by Ian · Comments Off ·
Well for those who don’t read the sports page, one of the teams interested in Nomar’s services next year are the NY Yankees or as I commonly refer to them, the Spankees.
Why Nomar, why would you even consider this? It’s not like you need the money. Are you bitter still about the trade from the [...]

Rebuttal to “Who Owns The Ball”…..
December 12th, 2005 by Ian · Comments Off ·
This rebuttal comes from a contributing editor, Marc Agdish, who wanted to give his rebuttal to a post i made earlier.
Rebuttal to “Who Owns The Ball”…..
After giving much consideration it is this novice’s opinion that the Red Sox are the third in line for possession of the famed ball. My thoughts are that the famed [...]

Was this the end of the line for the U game, which features UCONN and UMASS? According to Jim Calhoun, yes this was the last of the games. He had stated that if his Huskies had lost this game tonight, then he would continue the series. But with tonight’s win over the Minutemen, the U [...]

Renteria trade
December 8th, 2005 by Ian · Comments Off ·
Just a quick note for Sox fans. The Red Sox have traded Edgar Renteria to the Atlanta Braves for minor league 3B prospect, Andy Marte.
I don’t understand this trade at all. Yes, the Sox overpayed when they signed Renteria to a 4 yr 40 million dollar contract. But why give up on him after 1 [...]

December 4th, 2005 by Ian · Comments Off ·

December 1st, 2005 by Ian · 1 Comment ·
Ok, I have been pretty lazy the past week in writing posts and I am working on some right now but I thought I had to weigh in with my two cents on the ownership of the The Ball That Broke The Curse. As you Red Sox fans now, Doug Mientkiewicz ended up in [...]
