Let me preface this blog by saying that I'm really trying not to freak the fuck out.
Upon arriving in San Diego, I realized that I was a weird magnet for all of the vagabond New Englanders that, like me, sought the good weather of San Diego under the comprehension that everyone was of like East Coast nature. Not the point, but so not true...these West Coasters are a new brand of human and I'm not sure I want to subscribe. Bygones. Not my point. My point is that East Coasters are everywhere and I'm certain that they're attempting to take over the world. No arguments here.
However, in my broad expanse of gaining more knowledge and understanding of the people I work with and for, I realized (happily) that a bunch of my media buyers are from ...yes.....wait for it.....the EAST COAST! AND they are Red Sox fans!
This is great! Fucking great! So let's get to the point of my angst!
What the fuck have our hometown boys been doing other than throwing a fucking season that was theirs to claim? Where the fuck are our bats? Better yet, why the fuck does Francona keep putting Gagne in like he's the image of Christ on a hankie that will march to our salvation when all the schmuck does is give it all up in the 8th?
I'm devastated. Fucking devastated. I'm over the whole Red Sox "curse" yet doesn't this seem like the makings of a cursed year? THIS is something that we would've blamed on the Babe, THIS is something that we would've squawked and stomped about, somehow finding a way to blame the Evil Yankee Empire, but you know what? We can only blame ourselves.
Yes, I've got tears in my eyes. Yes, I'm pissed. We had the greatest first half-season and now....now we have to deliver. I'm used to us not pulling through but you know the funny thing about finally winning a Series? I now expect them to pull through. There's nothing left to blame, no one left to cuss out (although it just comes naturally for the Yanks), nowhere else to turn. This team rocked the first part of this season....and if they can't finish it, they don't deserve it.
For the last few months, I've been trying to explain to people the magnetism of watching baseball in Fenway as opposed to other random parks. My fear is that magic I grew up with will be diminished because no one cares anymore. There is no curse. There is nothing but the incompetent playing of a bunch of men that had a great chemistry, a great bond, and somehow they lost it after a few months of tossing a silly ball back and forth.
(NO BRITNEY CRAZIES HERE) Please, I implore of my Sox. Please. Get there. Pull out your guns and take us to places we're still not used to. Take us to the WS. Try. Try hard.

Momma says....
GO...GO...GO...GO... RED SOX!!!!!
Thank you for putting all of my Red Sox frustration into words! Maybe they all need to get laid...I'll get Jacoby Ellsbury, you take Jason Varitek, Stacey can have Mike Lowell, Mom can have Big Papi and then...for the other side of the rivalry...Dad can do Clemens up the ass!!!
What!!! no way! I want MANNY!!!!!!!!!
Do you thimk that Roger is a screamer? I would rather do Tina Servassio, she looks like a screamer. By the way Mom would rather do Manny than Papi.
I heard that Manny has a small weiner. I was trying to hook you up with "BIG" Papi!!!
I heard that Hazel Mae is a screamer...and she likes to get kinky with chopsticks
O.K I'll do Hazel.
Alrighty then!! I'll take Big Papi because I do not like small things....Hehehehehehe.
Oh! I can take on 2 because I just woke up from a nap and I am energized!!!!!
Oh shit...I didn't know we were allowed to take two. Dad, can I have Hazel when you're done with her?
Dad says sure!!! but he wants her back when your're done.
Don't tell Dad, but my plan is to throw a wig on Dice-K and send him back to Dad. Do you think he'd notice the difference?
No! not if its early in the morning.
You guys are frigging nuts. There's no curse, there will be no let down and the Sox will prevail. The foundation of being a Sox fan is faith. We all have it and we all believe, each and every spring, that the Sox will prevail. And you're right Robin, there is no other place like Fenway. By the way, I'd slip a wig on JD Drew cuz no other man looks better in a baseball uniform!
By the way, Stacey wants Varitek. After he got bonked on the elbow last night, he won't be able to take care of himself!
Now that Stacey is not behind my back, I'd like to do things to Hazel that are illegal in most states!
Now that Brian isn't standing behind me, I'll do both Jacoby Ellsbury and poor baby Varitek....LOL. I'm getting ready for my afternoon nap now so I'll be energized later on! Wooooooo Hoooooooo. Go sox!
I didn't say that I did not have faith in the RED SOX, I just said that I want to do MANNY!!!!!
FREAKIN GO SOX!!! I'm giving BIG PAPI to CHRISTY...
MY GOD ROBIN!!! look what you started. you brought out the dysfunctional side of our family, What will the rest of our family think of us now???
We Love you Family!
Good God, how I miss you dysfunctional idiots!!!! And for the record, Stace can have Varitek. I'm in lust with Mike Lowell. I'll do him in positions he wouldn't know his body could twist into.
Who the fuck is Hazel?? I want pictures!! You should all be like me and root for the Raiders...we know we suck and are going to contiunue to suck till Al Davis dies..see, know worries!!!!! and ya dont have to worry bout a collapse or cheatin!!
GO ROBIN!!! MIKE IS A HOTTIE!!!!!
OH Scott, we will have to a pic of Hazel for you tonight and email it to you tomorrow. WoW!! HAZEL is a Chigger!!!!but she's got a big RACK!!!!MEOW!!!!!
GO GO GO RAIDERS!!!!yaaaaaaay!
Dysfunctional??? I thought we were normal. By the way, why the panic. After tonite the sox are definitely in the playoffs, and anything can happen in the playoffs. remember 2004???
Oh and FYI her rack is implants,,,,,
You bunch of freaks....Robin can have Lowell....I'm going to nurse Varitek back to health in many many ways!
And just think, all this because Christy said maybe they need to get laid. I think it is us that needs to get laid.
Some come on Varitek. I'll smack your ass, you smack mine, and hell if he's good, he can even smack Brian's ass!!!!
And for the record, we just clinched the wild card as I type this........Yeeeeeeeeeeee Hawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
Woooooooooooooo Hoooooooooooo. Holy shit, where's the Tylenol!
Christy, make sure you send Jacoby my way, seeing where we can switch 'em out.
And Dad, no offense, but after Gagne blew another one a few days ago and the Yanks were within a game and a half, you know you were cussing out the TV too. Unless of course, your precious Roger was the pitch.
Yes Stacey, I agree...I'm beginning to think that every member of our family needs to get laid. We got Mom checking out Hazel's rack, Brian willing to do JD Drew, and Dad willing to do Tina, Hazel, or even the bat girl i'm sure.
I think that we all need to gang bang Jacoby Ellsbury in honor of clinching the wild card last night!!!
