    Internet Speeds

    I always recommend (if you’re an internet only Fios customer) is to insist using the Ethernet ports on the ONT over Coax. It gives you more options for Routers and you’re not limited to those crappy gateways Verizon insists on making you rent. If you are using the TV service, I believe you’re...

    Cutting The Cord on Cable/Satellite TV Service?

    Dang, that bummed me out…locast was a great service. I’m going with Hulu Live for the duration of football season.

    Your top "forgot he was a Red Sox"

    Sean Casey. Totally forgot he was on the 2008 team.

    How did you discover SoSH?

    I forget the specifics but it involves an internet rabbit hole from the WEEI or Boston.com sites circa 2005. Maybe Bostondirtdogs?

    Talk to me about NAS stuff

    I have a 4 bay Synology DS 920+. I can’t really say enough about how great it is, the user interface is very straightforward and it’s jam packed full of useful features and in-house apps. I do agree with the time it takes to get past the initial configuration and learning curve involved...

    Schilling says he's leaving Boston to be with 'people that are nice'

    Good thing he didn’t try to move to RI. Doubt they’d let him cross the state line.

    Predicting the Future: How Many SBs Does Mahomes Win?

    It’s super hard to allocate so much salary to a QB, consistently finish as a top 3-4 team, and expect to continually hit on on draft going 29 or later. You end up getting thin and a gradually roster talent suffers. I’m not betting against him winning a couple more, but I’m not expecting this...

    Cutting The Cord on Cable/Satellite TV Service?

    I've cut the cord for around 3-4 years now and do not regret it. Though I don't think cutting the cord its as awesome from a value perspective as it was - say - 5 years ago. 1) Mlb.tv blackouts are easily circumvented with a vpn. Its great and I consider it non-negotiable addition with a mlb.tv...

    Rosenthal: Sale extension 5 years, $145 million

    Fantastic news. Sale's a generational-type talent and one of the few pitchers that has the combination of pure stuff and control/command to succeed in this park & division. As mentioned upthread, the injury concerns seem a bit unwarranted. Yeah his delivery in unorthodox, but he's been very...

    Ochocinco was also 5 years older with way more mileage.

    Only God Can Judge Judge

    Wrist injuries are scary. It took Big Papi almost a year to fully come back from his. And, Nomar. *ducks*

    Edelman Suspended 4 Games for PEDs

    NFL is a sport where 270 lb behemoths can sprint a 40 in 4.5 seconds. Everybody is on some kind of PED (legal or otherwise). The false righteousness of people regarding this issue confounds me.

    Super Benintendi

    Starting at an arbitrary point May 9 (when he hit his 2nd HR of the season) there's been 26 games. Since that point, he's hit .349/.433/.728 with 17 XBH. Of these 26 games, only 8 have been on the road. Road games since 5/9 - .264/.426/.531 His splits against LHP since 5/9 - .389/.421/.833 (19...

    Super Benintendi

    I don't recall his production vs LHP being a problem in the minors. Given his profile (+ hit tool, patient approach) it seems like he'd a prime candidate to improve with increased exposure.
