Now Entering: Scenic Lowell!

by Red on August 3, 2010

Mikey Lowell gets the start tonight at first, as Youk hits the DL with a thumb injury.

And if there’s any justice in the world, Gentleman Mike Lowell–MVP of the 2007 World Series and once considered nothing more than the sidecar to the Josh Beckett trade–will get a rousing standing O, 37 hits and 6 home runs. He’ll also deliver the game-winning hit, be swept off his feet by his teammates, and carried across to the street to the Cask, where he’ll have a steak, several beers and a couple “professional women” waiting to greet him. Anyone turns a good play tonight, I want Jerry and DO to say, “That was very Mike of him.” And I want Heidi Watney to punctuate every sentence tonight with, “That’s Mikey Lowell… the man I’ll be servicing six ways to Sunday later this evening.”

But most of all, I just don’t want the f#$king guy to get hurt. Because we’ve seen enough of that.

It’s Lowell, Commander Kick Ass and the Legion of Replacement Heroes. And it’s on, baby.

Oh, and please mark you calendars for the Surviving Grady Jimmy Fund fundraiser on August 19 at the Lansdowne Pub.

I hate the Whalers, they always seemed to play the Bruins tough when the B's needed a win, that and they're green and white colors, like the snot nosed Jets.

"Things appeared to be calm until Beckett arrived." DO. Brilliant.

Do I need to watch the rerun?

Watching the Giants and who's on the mound? Ramon Ramirez. I hope he does better as a Giant than he did as a Sox.

Ahhh, that must be it!  I guess I wouldn't know the other "vintage" teams that are no longer in existence!  It must be a "trendy" thing - I even saw one in Santa Cruz a few months ago and attacked the poor dude about his affiliation with the Hartford Whalers.  (There was one in the stands tonight and I've seen them around.)

I'm gonna tell you a story
I'm gonna tell you about my town
I'm gonna tell you a big bad story, baby
Aww, it's all about my town

Yeah, down by the river
Down by the banks of the river Charles (aw, that's what's happenin' baby)
That's where you'll find me
Along with lovers, fuggers, and thieves (aw, but they're cool people)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, you're the Number One place)
Frustrated women (I mean they're frustrated)
Have to be in by twelve o'clock (oh, that's a shame)
But I'm wishin' and a-hopin, oh
That just once those doors weren't locked (I like to save time for
my baby to walk around)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, yeah)

Because I love that dirty water
Oh, oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, yeah)

Well, I love that dirty water (I love it, baby)
I love that dirty water (I love Baw-stun)
I love that dirty water (Have you heard about the Strangler?)
I love that dirty water (I'm the man, I'm the man)
I love that dirty water (Owww!)
I love that dirty water (Come on, come on)

Not sure why they are everywhere these days in particular, but I know in the last few years the NHL has come out with a lot of the "vintage" type merch.

THAT was super fun and baseball-y.  Haven't had a big Red Sox skip in my step in a while.

Where's the water?

Pap better be glad he didn't blow this. Beckett is pretty wound up, I'm pretty sure he would have killed him.
