Screw Sports

So, the Broncos failed miserably — The Steelers managed to turn “No Mistake Jake” back into “Jake the Snake”. End of story.

Also, the Avs are rapidly losing ground in the standings after losing two in a row.

I also don’t care if Theo is back, the Sox are going to blow this year.

Bah.

I needed more time to read books and sketch out my future tattoos anyway. ;)

Theo’s Back

Well, that little tantrum didn’t last long.

“Ironically, Theo’s departure has brought us closer together in many respects, and, thanks to these conversations, we now enjoy the bonds of a shared vision for the organization’s future that did not exist on Oct. 31. With this vision in place, Theo will return to the Red Sox in a full-time baseball operations capacity, details of which will be announced next week.”

Isn’t that sweet?

Good While It Lasted

This just in: The Red Sox are fucked.

Here’s to another 80-odd years without a World Series Championship.

Update: Well, Theo can always go work for the Brockton Rox!

“We don’t actually have an office for Theo,” Rox president Jim Lucas said. “But we built two new cubicles this year and he’d have his own phone and access to the internet.”

After all, Brockton is the City of Champions. (After only a couple years, though, I don’t think the Rox contribute to that reputation.)

I never liked sports anyway…

It was a tough night to be one of “my” teams last night.

In the NHL opening night, both the Bruins and the Avalanche lost one goal games. But that’s just the first game out of more than eighty, so no biggie. (BTW, I was wrong about Forsberg not being able to start.)

More depressing is the Red Sox loss to the White Sox. They are now two games down in the series, and I just don’t feel any miracle comebacks this year.

Update

Hezzy and I have been a little crazy since we got back. For one thing, Wifey really wanted to paint the trim (baseboard, etc.) in the living room. Lucky for me, I haven’t had to do much more than paper and mask for that.

My primary excuse from here on out this weekend is, of course, my motorcycle class. Tonight was all classroom workbook/video type stuff. But the people seem fun, and I’m totally impressed by the diversity of the crowd in the class. We have a mother-daughter team, a couple/few older dudes, a father-son duo (junior is only 16), and then a couple guys that are probably in their twenties, one of which is an Air Force recruiter.

Also, thought I’d point out that Threadless is doing another $10 sale, and you can hurry up and pre-order the Sailor Jerry Chuck Taylors, if you are so inclined.

Oh, and the Red Sox are killing me.

Boomer and the BoSox

Sox get a lefty loose — Wells fits in well with new mates

Write this on a slip of paper and put it away for safekeeping: David Wells and the Red Sox are a perfect fit. Long regarded as an organization that was more uptight than the Save Fenway zealots, the Red Sox are now the home of long-haired author Johnny Damon, free-pouring bartender Kevin Millar and tattooed biker Wells.

Let the New Yorkers wear those cheesy pinstriped suits.

He can still pitch, too. ;)
