oh no. not a blog. dang.Is it only 4 days? he pitched the second game at NY? Then one day off. Then rain out. Then game three. Then game four. Dang. That makes five? Or do you not count the current day? Blaze of glory it is. Pedro is under appreciated. Probably because he is nuts and has "little friend".I think in his last game, two of those first four balls to Jeter were strikes. Jeter doesn't walk, whole different game. He was throwing 95 mph. He doesnt' throw the change-up as much as he should, but I'll take him as my number two. Why the fuck is John Leiber so good? I blame the Sox. I refuse to accept that that shlub can pitch. I guess I should be writing this in blog form. How do you spell shlub?If the Sox know what's good for them, Damon will shave his beard today. Millar did it yesterday, with good results. Must rely on mojo.

i don't know if i trust pedro on 4 day's rest against the yanks, but i agree with you that this should be his going-out-in-a-blaze-of-glory time to shine. i hope he doesn't choke and i hope mussina isn't awesome again because i hate him. it will only be cool if mussina's awesome again like he was against the indians in game 5 of the 1997 ALCS when he struck out 16 and we still won 2-1 on that lenny harris passed ball when omar vizquel missed the suicide squeeze bunt. that was awesome. and i think nagy got 6 double plays in 7 innings too. i turned the game off last night right after> mueller tied the game because i didn't want to jinx things either. i'm tempted to watch today but i might not be able to leave work so i may not have the option. crap.
and the thing with the browns is i realized i think they have the hardest schedule in football, which is completely unfair because they were 5-11 last year. with the exception of cincinnati yesterday, all their opponents have had top 10 defeneses, and now 5 of their next 6 games are against> philadelphia, baltimore, pittsburgh, jets, and new england! i think those teams are a combined 22-4 or 23-3!!! that's absurd and totally not fair. so i'm pissed. stupid hardest schedule ever!

Whaddya think?
Yanks in 7?
I boycotted yesterdays game in an effort to reverse my game watching bad mojo.
It worked. Now what? I think I have to watch today. THe story line is too good for the Sox not to win the next two. Then game 7 could go either way. The Sox are the Sox and fall? Or the Sox triumph over adversity?? hmmm.
I can't help but imaging a triumphant win in Pedro's last stand as a Red Sox and then Schilling pulling a Willis Reed. The Lowe on short rest? Wakefield. Uggh. Probably we'll just lose today.
The Browns are 3 and 3.
Did you seen that catch by Bethel Johnson? That was amazing. Maybe the best I've seen. Plaxico had a pretty nifty catch too. The Boys should get Henson on the field. They are going nowhere with the all-old lineup.
The Patriots are the Yankees of football, except much more likeable, and without 26 championships. I thought of that first, and page 2 copied me. I think we should write for page 2. They are actually more like the Detroit Pistons, with less ass-holish Derek Jeter at quarterback.
I don't thin that makes any sense. Is that a mixed metaphor or something oh literary guru? I'm sure you've noticed the many snide remarks about Jeter as a "winner" on page 2...
I read that Jon Stewart thing yesterday. He is awesome. The only person who I've ever seen get on one of those shows and kick everybody's ass.
