TRUCK DAY!

Here is the photo gallery of truck day, Hallelujah Baseball season and Spring are on the way!

Countdown to happiness

Over here, there is a countdown to spring training, pitchers and catchers reporting. Yippee!! Lester has already arrived and any news that deflects from my superbowl misery is a welcome relief.

Bad news- Shil may not be able to pitch this year-DOH!!- is also at boston.com. Uh-oh, bummer. Good thing we have lots of young pitchers.

We've been catching some of NESN'S Classic Red Sox games to get us in the baseball spirit, and also we are VERY excited for truck day. In the midst of the snow storm and some other sporting sorrow, truck day and pitchers and catchers reporting is a very sunny addition in our lives!

at the Westbrook Dunkin Donuts. Not sure what time, though.

Some sort of DND "tour". Maybe he will come to the Windham one after and I can skip work and stalk him?!

Ahh, Jacoby! My hero!

How much do you think he'll be charging to let his shadow pass over us?

My random Sox thoughts

I miss baseball. Football is nice, but, it's one day a week. I also miss Remy and Orsillo!!

I am so proud for Pedroia. Him playing with his broken hand for the past two months is the 'bloody sock' of 2007! And, I'm calling Jacoby for ROTY 2008. Hells yeah.

Beckett got robbed. I think I will always refer to him as Cy, until he wins it.

A-fraud signed with the Yankees for a decade. Good. Keep him off our team. Plus, that just means we get to smoke 'em in the playoffs for a loooong time.

If the Sox don't get Lowell back, I may very well cry.

I want to buy a NESN Bobbledesk for someone for Christmas. Think they're still available?

Nobody here?

We are in Ohio, found some friends to watch the game with. I thought Tuan would have filled this space by now, but he's probably still making his own little champagne shower thing at home.


So....we're tired. Great game, great times. Hard to match the furvor of '04, but seeing all the new guys, the young ones especially, pull this off has its own unique flavour. More thoughts when its not 1am and I've had more than 2 hours of sleep a night (long story).

Yes, in fact.

We let the kids stay up to watch the playoffs, just like my dad did with me in the 80's.
