Big-Ass Red Sox DVD Giveaway

Because we are forever locked in a booze-fueled holiday glow, we are happy to embrace the holiday spirit and offer one lucky SG reader the chance to win a Fenway Park 100th Anniversary DVD Collector’s Set courtesy of our friends at A&E Home Video.

The set has 12 motherflippin’ DVDs with 26 hours of games and “unforgettable moments” and other stuff that will likely leave your baseball-starved mind in a drooling heap in the corner of the room. Content includes highlights from the 60s to the present; six complete games, including the Fisk game of the 75 Series, the 1999 All-Star Game at Fenway starring Pedro Martinez, Game 4 of the 2004 ALCS, Game 7 of the 2007 ALCS, Yaz’s 3-hit, 4-RBI performance in a critical 1967 clincher; and the documentary Fenway Park: 100 Years as the Heart of Red Sox Nation.

And it all comes in a big, 28-page hardcover book with some pretty incredible photos. You can read the full description here.

Of course, something this majestic must be earned, but we’ll make it easy for you. Simply imagine that John Henry, Tom Werner and Larry Lucchino have come to visit you on Christmas Eve, not unlike the three wise men. They get down on bended knee and ask how, in the aftermath of the single worst Red Sox season in most of our lifetimes, they can make it up to you. How they can make things better and more enjoyable and unstoppably awesome in 2013. Simply tell us your plan for bringing the FUN back to FENWAY — whether it involves talking horses, robots or Josh Hamilton. Leave it in our comments section OR on our Facebook page OR tweet it to us (because brevity is the soul of wit).

The winning entry will be selected by an impartial and likely intoxicated panel including me, Denton, a rep from A&E and my toaster.

Contest runs until 11:59pm tonight. Then we start the judging process (assuming we haven’t passed out.) Good luck.

Here is how you bring the fun back to fenway: Banish pink hats and offer guarenteed admission for 10 games a year to Red Sox fans that can describe to you what happened in the 1995 LDS. If this happens players will remember that winning in this game is not about pleasing the owners through witty commercials in a way to increase their bottom line, but rather it is simply about playing your heart out...the results will come!

Re-make the Dukes of Hazzard starring Tim Wakefield and Mike Timlin as an elder, more grizzled Bo and Luke Duke, a greased up Heidi Watney as Daisy, DeMarlo Hale as some sort of Uncle Jessie hybrid, Bobby V. as Rosco P. Coltrane, Don Zimmer as Boss Hog, and of course Curtis Leskanic as Crazy Cooter.  Broadcast a new episode on the jumbotron before every home game, or if the season plays out like last year, during the game.

If the Dukes of Hazzard re-boot is a no go, then I need to see some sacrificial blood shed to atone for the past two seasons.  I suggest a battle royal cage match, Thunderdome style.  Possible participants could include Julio Lugo,  Eric Gagne, Alfredo Aceves, Vincente Padilla...you get the idea.  My prediction for the fight - 47 men enter, Julian Tavarez leaves.

1) A-Rod Target Practice, coached by Mike Timlin and Tim Wakefield. 2) Millar hosts postgame show from the Cask. 3). Leskanic and Bellhorn join Sons of Anarchy-themed pregame show. TC leads the gang, Rice is the enforcer. 4) Bill Buckner, starting and playing first. 5) Mike Lowell Ladies Night.

Fun at Fenway should include 1) Bring back Josh Reddick, who was the 2nd coming of Trot Nixon. Matter of fact, bring back Trot too. 2) Bring back Pedro and Manny, give them Monster seats, and they will be the Red Sox version of Statler and Waldorf. 3) Wade Boggs Chicken Dinner nights 4) Rich Garces "El Guapo" Churro and Taquito nights 5) Fenway needs their own Space Mountain roller coaster ride, renaming it Spaceman Mountain, and Bill Lee is the conductor.

Two different entries for me: An honest one and a "family friendly" version.

1. "Gentlemen, you have done a disservice to Red Sox Nation, Julian Tavares, and the Brazilian Bikini Team. The only way you can make this up to me is a lifetime supply of both PBR and Thai hookers. Anything less just doesn't cut it". 

2. "Guys, you undermined my Red Sox life ending the 2011 season and all of 2012. Please sell Pawtucket to Seattle for King Felix. I figure Rhode Island kicked Schilling in the gibleys, so lets take away the only real winning franchise over the past two years".

Drew Barrymore Night! Any fan who takes a foul ball in the face gets to punch Jimmy Fallon in the nuts. And a free bag of Bird's Eye Frozen Peas.

Plan on passing on the tradition of Red Sox misery to my daughter (5th generation fan) by taking her to Fenway. My first game in Fenway was at the end of a sweep by the Yanks, in the bleachers. I'm thinking 2013 will be a good year to pass on this tradition.

Every time the Sox lose, a minor league player (of the manager's choosing) gets brought in to play in the next game. Either that or a free Fenway frank & drink on your next visit to Fenway (your ticket stub would be the receipt).

Put a life sized Ted above the Monster and whenever a Sox player hits it, everyone at Fenway gets a free Tiffany DVD.

1) Hire Heidi Watney, back! 2) Pedro as pitching coach. 3) Have a beer keg in the shape of Mike Lowell's face with a tap in the shape of Billy Mueller's. Just for starters.
