Apparently, Clemens is Swahili for, “Desperate” PART 2

Thursday, May 10th, 2007

Part 2 today. Read Part 1, Clemens is Swahili for Desperate to get caught up.

Here are the pros and cons of Clemens signing with the Sox.
Pros:
1. Public Relations: As we all know by the spam emails we get in our inboxes every morning, the Red Sox have become [...]

Apparently, Clemens is Swahili for, “Desperate”

Wednesday, May 9th, 2007

Thanks to Sean for being a guest writer and taking on the Clemens situation, as I am too sick of him to actually write about it
In the midst coming home from a poker game on Sunday night, I happened to get a ride home from a friend and on the way back we put on [...]

Bad Scheduling has Sox in Toronto… Again

Tuesday, May 8th, 2007

Today, the Red Sox are in Toronto to play the Blue Jays. Again. The exchange rate is about the same as it was before, so hopefully the team has enough Loonies and Toonies left for this week.
How is the baseball schedule so unbalanced? Its not just unbalanced in that you play your [...]

Sox take the Series as Clemens Signs with the Yankees

Sunday, May 6th, 2007

Well, its official. Today is a day of baseball. The Red Sox took game 3, 4-3 in Minnesota today, and it was a great game all around. Schilling picked up the win with Papelbon saving it for him, and Dustin Pedroia had 3 hits. We are finally starting to see him [...]

Drunk Baseball Players - Is it a Problem?

Sunday, May 6th, 2007

Everyone, by now, has heard that Josh Hancock was drunk when his SUV rental drove off the road in the accident that killed him. This has prompted all baseball teams, not just the Cardinals, to at least look at the problem of alcohol abuse in the MLB. The problem, really, is that it [...]

Project Management and the New York Yankees

Saturday, May 5th, 2007

This is an essay/research paper written about Project Management in business as it relates to the Yankees. The author, Tina, was given an A, so I don’t want to hear any complaints from you Yankee fans. Though this seems similar to my previous arguments about whey the Yankees have failed to win the [...]

Battle of the Bullpens ends in Sox Favor

Friday, May 4th, 2007

The starting pitchers in the Mariners-Red Sox make up game last night gave up 14 runs between them in just 9 innings pitched. The math on this one is pretty easy - that is a 14.00 ERA. The bullpens, however, combined to pitch 8 innings (no bottom of the 9th) and give [...]

How Not to Pick Up a Red Sox Girl

Thursday, May 3rd, 2007

The art of picking up a lady friend, or even just trying to make conversation, can be a tricky one. Every single guy wants to know how to do it, many fail. Female die-hard Red Sox fans (yes gentlemen, they are out there) don’t want to hang with someone who doesn’t know baseball, assumes they [...]

Papelbon, not Perfectabon

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007

Yes, Papelbon blew the save last night. He was very upset with himself over it, as evidenced by Jim Davis’ picture from the Globe today (click-thru for their article).
Strangely enough, this isn’t the first time it has happened either. In fact, its the 9th. Papelbon blew 8 saves last year, including [...]

Red Sox Super Fan on the Radio!

Tuesday, May 1st, 2007

A Special thanks to the guys at Sox and Pinstripes for having me on their weekly Blog Talk Radio Show. I could rehash it here, but I’ll let you listen for yourself.
