Still We Believe!
Red Sox win! Red Sox win!!
Has being 8½ games out of first place ever felt so good? The Sox just made a miraculous comeback against the Yankees after laying the smack down on the Empirettes. Jason Varitek is my hero. So is Billy Mueller. And Official Soxer of A Cry for Help, Trot Nixon, was no joke in defending our friend Gabe Kapler. Not that I saw it from the bleachers or anything, but damn, the fight was nice and the game was better. Three runs and a walk-off homer off Señor Automatic Mariano Rivera?! Best game all year.
Did I mention, as of right now, I hate Nightwing, who was at today's game, about as much as I hate Fox announcers Joe Buck and Tim McCarver? Bastards all. Seriously though, I had to mute the television for innings at a time to keep from being aurally jizzed on as McCarver gave 10-minute broadcast blowjobs to Jeter and A-rod (and Sheffield and Matsui and Joe Torre and…).
And Curse Shmurse. Some people can't take the heat.

I’ll get you for this! As sure as Trot Nixon can’t figure out how many outs there are in a ballgame, I will get you…
But a brief truce.
In one breath McCarver talks about going to a musical and in the next he verbally strokes Jetes under the pinstripes. You draw your own conclusions.
But Joe Buck was worse. MUCH MUCH worse. He called Jetes a gamer for breaking his face and still playing while Nomar “rested his achilles tendon on the bench”
No mention of playing a full season with a seriously injured wrist and WINNING A BATTING TITLE.
BTW, Joe, Jeter’s BA is something like .270
Captain my arse…

Mueller Time!
Fenway Park, summer afternoon, Yankees in town. Bench clearing brawl, trading the lead at least 5 times, going into the bottom of the ninth with (Panamanian drag queen) Mariano Rivera on the mound. Down by two runs. Nomie hits…
