    Redsoxstiff

    Grateful that he shared his love of baseball, blues music, and epicurean pleasures. Honest when he called Cathy his better half. Only predictable when someone mentioned the name Yogi Berra in the way it set off a torrent of epithets in Stiffy-ese. He will be missed.

    Jim Bouton dead at 80

    "You spend a good piece of your life gripping a baseball and in the end it turns out that it was the other way around all the time." Goodbye Bulldog. It's time to enjoy the cool of the evening.

    RIP Bill Buckner

    Life isn't fair. The poor guy was roasted for one bad moment in '86 after a stellar career. You win as a team and lose as one.

    Yawkey Way now Jersey St again

    Hiring a qualified minority manager or selling ownership shares and bringing in a minority partner would go farther to separate Henry from Yawkey's legacy in my opinion. The city renaming a street on behalf of John Henry is purely a symbolic gesture.

    Apparently Chelsea supporters have better things to do in July. Pity you don't. How about watching some of the ICC matches tonight?

    Stanley Cup Finals

    I hope Kessel spends his day with the cup eating bacon wrapped scallops out of the bowl, takes a picture of himself doing so with a big shit-earing grin, and sends the photo to Steve Simmons (Toronto Sun) who wrote that ridiculous hot dog column.
