Red Sox Update
They are not playing today. Yesterday they got their World Series rings, and raised the World Series banner, and trotted out many of the former players, both dead and alive, from years past, such as Johnny Pesky. There were also many special guests participating, including Bobby Orr, Bill Russell, Richard Seymour and Tedy Bruschi to throw out the ceremonial first barrage of pitches. Ben Affleck was also there in his usual spot near the dugout practically sitting on Papi's lap. It was all very emotional and touching; especially the sincere and heartfelt standing ovation the Fenway crowd gave to Yankees closer Mariano Rivera. By the way, they also played a game against the Yankees, which Red Sox won 8-1. So by all accounts it was a perfect home opener.

Burger King has just the thing for you (caution: this link contains bad language). I tried it.

Opening Day
The Red Sox continued their 21st century tradition of losing on opening day. Usually it is to a team like the Orioles. This year, it was to the Yankees in the Bronx. Which brings up an important point concerning games held at Yankee Stadium. Specifically, it is about that guy - the Yankee Tenor - who sings the interminably long version of God Bless America during the seventh inning stretch and looks a little bit like Michael Chiklis from the show, The Shield, I think I speak for a majority of North American baseball fans when I tell him, "Hey, Mr. Yankee Tenor guy, put a sock in it!" Most of us living outside New York happen to believe it is possible to be patriotic and to love this country and still not want to listen to you any more.

Of course, the Yankees organization probably knows this.

Maybe I can expand my fan base.

Today's Thought Provoking Quote:
"Although no one has investigated the possibility of rat humor, if it exists, it is likely to be heavily laced with slapstick."
