    March 31, 2008:
    Happy Birthday to me…

    One…more…day…
    So the trek around the world is over, the 3 exhibition games (including the one that broke the record of most attendees at a baseball game–115,300) are done–and in a little more than 24 hours, the Red Sox will continue the 2008 campaign with a game in Oakland in the middle of the night…

    Week #1:
    And the Winner Is…

    The Winner of Boston Red Thought’s 1st Giveaway–Week #1 is Ted D, fellow Crazy Red Sox Fan and blogger extraordinaire of Red Sox Dad.
    Ted is the winner of the hottest new video game, PS3’s MLB08 The Show. Because Ted has an earlier version of Play Station, I will be donating his copy of the PS3 […]

    4 More Days…

    Honestly! Didn’t we already do this countdown things? It would have been better to wait and started the season with everyone else next week (I am sure the Sox and Oakland would agree with me on that.) It’s worse to have 2 games (although I did not see a minute of either–Thanks Direct TV…) and […]

    Red Sox on a Plane…

    Fortunately, the trip from LA from Japan is a bit shorter time frame than from Florida to Japan, as they will probably get non-stop flight from Japan and LA…When I ran a simulation, it took a little under 12 hours, and that was stopping in Portland for less than an hour…
    So hopefully the jetlag will […]

    Red Sox 1, Oakland 5:
    And that is a Sayonara from Japan…

    Another crack of dawn–another game–although ESPN 2 will be televising it at 1:00pm for those of us who cannot get NESN–not that it matters–I’ll still be at work then…So I guess it will have to wait until next Tuesday nightNIGHT before I get to see any actual live baseball…CRAP…
    But then again, after the abysmal game […]

    Red Sox 6, Oakland 5: In 10 innings…
    Happy Opening Day!

    How WEIRD is it that the Sox are finished with today’s baseball–even with extra innings–before 10:00am…strange….At least they won…not that it was a pretty win…Daisuke was not super, going 5 throwing 95 pitches–only 51 for strikes, and giving up 2 runs on 2 hits (including 1 homers) while walking 5 and striking out 6…Could have […]

    Red Sox 9, Yomiuri Giants 2:
    Less than 24 hours…

    To Opening Day! Whooo Hoo! Too bad the game is on at 6:00am tomorrow morning… UGH…But I have EPSN2 all of TiVo ‘ed up and ready to go…Since I really don’t like to watch games after they have happened, I am not sure how much of it I will actually watch…But the fact that relevant […]

    Red Sox 3, Blue Jays 4:
    Leaving on a Jet Plane…

    Did anyone, for a SECOND actually believe that MLB would let the Sox actually mess with their cake and boycott the HUGE money making deal that is the Japan trip–over less than $1 million dollars?? Me either
    But it was a nice gesture on part of the players to actually CARE about someone other than themselves: […]

    Road Trip!

    After today’s  game, the Sox will get on a plane for a ridiculously long time to travel to Japan for the 4 games (2 exhibition against Japanese teams, and 2 against Oakland, which will kick off the 2008 campaign) They will then travel to LA fro 3 exhibition games, before kicking off the US portion […]

    Red Sox 4, Skanks 8:
    And how exactly was this a good idea?

    Yeah, OK, he did not suck in his 1st outing, but yesterday’s (against the SKANKS no less) was pretty horrendous. Of course, he thought he was stronger than ever–just had some control issues. Well, ya know what buddy? Not really feeling the love here…I KNOW the Sox need a 5th starter–but holy buckets, does it […]
