That Ancient Childhood Chant

That Ancient Chant from Childhood in Brooklyn, is being heard again in Queens. It is as if music to my ears. It is as if Shea Stadium is still standing. It is a chant signifying that I am NOT a Yankees Fan.
To those of Red Sox Nation In New England & New York, that dear, ancient chant is as if Gregorian Chant to my ears. One could almost imagine hearing the voice of "The Voice Of Summer In New York" as if it was Yesterday. To those of you in New England who remember him in the 1950s & on occasion in the 1960s, one could almost hear Bob Murphy over Radio & Television.
And that sweet, ancient chant of Childhood in Brooklyn is back, in full, flowering voice:
"Let's Go Mets", is being heard here in Queens, again.
Ok, it took the Johan Santana No Hitter to awaken the chant. Now it is a greeting on the streets.
To my brethren across Red Sox Nation, NY Mets Fans have a diabolical hatred for the NY Yankees. They actually Love Us. They share this city with the Bronx Bombers. And if Somebody is wearing a NY Mets Cap, they will know Baseball, the nuances & have actually been to a few games at Citi Field or Shea Stadium. Be careful of those people wearing Yankees Caps, for they just might only be Tourists. Yankee Stadium III is full of tourists. Citi Field, however, is where real Baseball Fans gather as well as real New Yorkers.
I still have a copy of "Meet The Mets" on my iPod Touch.
The trouble is, NY Mets Fans are still waiting for the proverbial "Other Shoe To Drop."
Like us in Red Sox Nation, who knew that feeling before 2004, Mets Fans, especially the ones who followed the Brooklyn Dodgers, have the same feelings.
But, Johan's No Hitter has created a new spirit.
"Let's Go Mets!"
So Be It!

Is The Great Sellout Streak Over

The other day, I received an email from The Boston Red Sox for a Promotional Day called "Social Media Day", at Fenway Park.
Interesting concept, but I think I will pass on it, as the App Store can supply that App. I usually went to Baseball Games to watch a game, talk to people &, in the case of Fenway Park, enjoy a Sausage Sandwich as well as the people around me.
I wonder if Fenway Park has Wi Fi Service.

Now Back To Your Irregularly Scheduled Boston Red Sox Coverage

Ok, let me explain to Red Sox Nation as to where I have been & what I have been doing. Let's just say that NONE of it is Baseball Related. I did not jump ship to cheer for The NY Yankees. I will root for the Yankees when Josef Goebbels is honored for Humanitarian Causes by B'Nai Brith.
Please realize that there is a new manager, one who has been out of touch with MLB for sometime. He has spent several years in Japan. At one point in 1999, in The Sporting News, he was called The Most Hated Manager in Baseball. But there is a good side to the Son In Law of Ralph Branca, for he infuriated that noted Baseball Nitwit, by the name of Jeffy Wilpon, who is also despised to no end by NY Mets Fans, not unlike M. Donald Grant.
For Bobby Valentine, a man of many skills, is Manager of the Boston Red Sox. Diplomacy, however, is not one of his skills. Since WHEN did Kevin Youkilis become Chopped Liver?
Terry Francona had the Patience Of Job. Bobby Valentine has all the Patience of Steve Jobs. Francona handled the Media, adeptly. Valentine blasts the goose liver out of players in the press.
Valentine seems to be playing to the Intellectually Challenged Callers to WEEI, WBZ-FM & WFAN in one felt swoop.
But, to be fair, the Red Sox have grown old in a lot of places. And Bobby V is terrific for younger players.

"Who Is Disrupting The Red Sox @ Home?"

Great Road Record but Home is where the team is falling apart.
Who is "The Disrupter?"
M

The Red Sox Dominate On The Road

But, for whatever reason, Fenway Park becomes a proverbial "Citi Field" in that Home is like the Road & Vice Versa.
The Question I MUST Ask is THIS-Is There a Massively-Disruptive, Undermining Individual, disrupting Operations at Home? (Think Antonio Bernezard & Jeffy Wilpon).
M

To Red Sox Nation Fan Base

Since the team wins more often on the road, treat them like they're on the Road.

"Is Dave Wallace In The House?"

In 2004, Dave Wallace was Pitching Coach of The World Champion Boston Red Sox.
In 2000, he was Pitching Coach of the National League Champion NY Mets.
Currently, the Red Sox Pitching is falling apart. Wakefield's Knuckleball does not dance. Lester is lasting only until the 6th Inning. Lackey is a "Yankees Spy", he being that bad.
I look at it from this perspective-from the time of the deal to land one Eric Gagne', often called a "World Series Ring Thief", things have not been good for the Carmine Hose. It is, IMHO, a turning point.
I do remember 2006-it was not pretty. Al Nipper was Interim Pitching Coach. Nipper was a 1986 World Series Arsonist.
Jon Lester was diagnosed with a Lymphona. Part of The Lineup was out on the DL. It was NOT Fun.
Ernie Paicoupoulos is right-it is a "Bridge Year". Unfortunately, for Red Sox Fans in the NY Area, there are more bridges to leap from than one can shake a stick at.
Dave Wallace, WHERE are You?

Manny Ramirez Is A Wife Slapping Jerk

I know! The Days of "Manny Being Manny" have now become a memory & not always a good memory. Going batso on the Road Secretary, begging for trades in Mid-Season & later getting caught using Steroids, these are more of "Manny Being An A--h-le."

AJ Burnett Does Do Something Right

Quite Simply, his pitching utterly SUCKS!

I'm My Own Lab Rat

I had read about Citrulline, an element found in Watermelon and its' rinds. Let's just say that if you eat enough of the fruit and its' rinds, male sexual activity will be enhanced:

After eating 3 Pieces of Watermelon, yesterday, including the rinds, I felt a sensation in the Lower regions of my body. Unfortunately, I'd have to eat a much-greater supply of the fruit, to achieve that sensation for a longer period;

But, due to the Candida Condition, it caused for a rash, and Edema in my Right Leg(Swelling). It's because of Sugar in the fruit, and Sugar and Yeast sure can brew up a mess;

But, I found that a 5B Capsule of Acidophillus and other Probiotics, cleared up the Edema Swelling;

I can thank my Well-Meaning Doctors for all those Antibiotics, which kill the Healthy Flora In The Intestines, leading to an overgrowth of Candida, which is painful and very-annoying. Having gone with Natural Medicine, is giving me a new look in life;

The Red Sox are killing my feelings but the West Coast Tour is ending today, as Josh Beckett is not the same as he was last year, in yesterday's 4-2 Loss, in Anaheim. They play at 6:00PM-ET in Anaheim, on ESPN. Fortunately, Tampa Bay goes outside of its' Circus Tent Dome during this week, built in tribute to the one in Minneapolis;

Aardsma, MDC, Okie-Nokie, Spell A Need For Chloryphyll

As In Relief from the Flatulence, which aficionados experience from watching the Red Sox Relief Corps:

Okajima has been figured out by many MLB Clubs and is getting smacked around;

MDC, in this case, does not stand for the Metropolitan District Commission, an agency in charge of Boston's Park System, but, rather for Manny Del Carmen, a Relief Corps Member;

Remember, Well, This Weekend Past, as the Relief Corps was strangely ineffective;

My Words to the Red Sox FO-Do NOT look to Milwaukee's Closer for an answer, for he would send Ol' Fitzy into a "GFY" Fit so ugly, that Wee Children would not be advised to build Sand Castles within a few feet of Raging Fitzy;

No Over-Sized Piece Of Canadian Bacon, is Welcome in The Fens;

As to why I mentioned Chloryphyll, have a Rolaids and tell me how you really feel, while sitting on the "Throne". I think you have the picture;

Later, Gators!

Okajima' NOT Okie-Dokey At This Point

He was once "Lights Out". Now he's turning into Armando Benitez, which is NOT a good thing. He's becoming reminiscent of Bunny Kim, for crying out loud;

In short, a disaster is upon us in R S N;

Theo? Call Any team for pen help, but don't call Milwaukee. They'd only be too glad to depart with Eric Gagne';

I'm just wondering just how old is Okie-Dokie?

Mr Curt Schilling Needs Surgery On His Shoulder And Thank You For The Memories

Funny, but I had a feeling that it would come to an end this way, as Curt Schilling needs surgery. I remember one evening, where I had a discussion with Allison of Beverly, MA, at Red Sox Haunt, "The Hairy Monk", which doubles as an Irish Pub at East 25th Street and 3rd Avenue, in Murray Hill, Manhattan:

She insisted that the rest will have Curt back on track, while I thought that Surgery by Curt's Surgeon, Dr Morgan, would take care of the problem;

Curt is Curt and has elected to go under a knife, to fix his problem shoulder up, which is too bad;

I can see why Allison thought that Therapy would be better. After all, I'm now under the treatment of Alternative Therapy, which is making me feel better as a person, than seeing some MD, who prescribes pills for Symptoms, without knowing the whole story about me;

Curt's gone for the Season and, perhaps, his career may be over, which is sad;

My advice to Omar Minaya-don't let Jeffy order you to sign a Post-Op Curt-it might not be fun and Weasal Bernazard may replace you;

But, for Game 6 Of The Great '04 Comeback, Thanks For The Memories, Curt and for '07, too;

And for suggesting that Tito be our manager;

And to Allison from Beverly, MA, a Tremendous Thanks, for that Sweet Wet Kiss and Hug, two weeks ago at The Hairy Monk, after the Red Sox downed an Opponent. I think it was Tampa Bay, who fell victim;

Bless You Mike Lowell, Youk & J. D. Drew

2 in the Green Monster Seats, 1 a Grand Slam by Mike Lowell, and 1 by Youk & 1 by a hot J D Drew. Red Sox 9-2 over the Orioles tonight. Jon Lester got the win & Jeremy Guthrie got clocked. Later, Gators!

Red Sox Have A Colon-ic

This is where Bartolo Colon comes into the picture. He was a winner of his 4th game. V-tek, his catcher, was one of 2, homering. Paps got the save. More action tonight @ 6:05PM from Fenway Park.

The Red Sox Are In Cincinatti Facing The Reds This Weekend

The Saturday Game will be on FOX at 3:55PM, ET:

It would be something if on Saturday, they faced Bronson Arroyo;

Or is his name, Brandon;

This is what to look for, if Mc Cavah is part of the FOX Crew;

Brandon Arroyo, Dustbin Elldroya, Jacoby Meyers, that Kevin Youkilis should DH in this game, Ruddy Lugo, Manny Ortiz, Ramirez has caused Mt Everest to erupt;

That and a mention or 5 of Derek Jeter;

Mc Cavah will be at his dumbest;
