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.

Blip & Vimeo For Documentaries

In March, 2010, I premiered my Blip. TV Show Page called "Lansdowne126-MMD Productions", & opened with a 5 Minute Documentary called "The Demolition Of Shea & Yankee Stadiums." It has proved to be quite popular on Blip. Blip has something in common with my opening my Vimeo page in that the same video opening Blip, also opened Vimeo. That 1st Vimeo Video is starting to get views after awhile,
That 1st Video was recorded entirely on a Samsung A737 Phone & Touched up with iMovie HD for Mac. The 1st Documentary looks primitive by today's standards, but it is being well received on both Blip & now on Vimeo.
The next documentary will be Catholic Related. It will begin in Richmond Hill & end in Forest Hills. It will cover how the Forest Hills Catholic Parishes came to be.
This will be on Blip & Vimeo. I would not have it any other way.

Leukemia Walkathon Tonight In Forest Park In Queens

On 09/10 The Real Heroes Gathered @ Ground Zero

For on 09/11, it will be a time of mourning & commemoration in Lower Manhattan. But the Real Heroes commemorated everything in Lower Manhattan, on 09/10. And WHY is THAT the case?
Quite-Simply, that Sanctimonious, Secret Cigar Chomping Billionaire, Known as "Mayor Mike", decided that "1st Responders"(FDNY & NYPD) nerd not be present for the Politician & Fat Cat Commemoration at Ground Zero. Also, no Religious Clergy are invited to this commemoration, in order not to offend anybody.
Let me think about this for a moment:
Did His Royal Highness, Mr Bloomberg, rescue anybody at the World Trade Centre on that Fateful Morning? NO! Can Bloomy walk on Water?
Abso-frigging-Lutely NOT!

I Don't Get This But

A Local, as in Forest Hills, Queens Based Knights of Columbus Council Free Throw Basketball Championship Competition, is receiving mostly Canadian Viewers. What happened to all those Queens Based Viewers?
Sometimes I forget that this isn't Public Access Cable Television, but rather the World of The New Media. Viewers pop in from any part of The World. Much of our Overseas Viewership is in Israel & Europe on YouTube. So the Definition of Neighborhood has changed from around the corner & across the street, to across the border & across oceans.
The "Neighborhood" is available at a click of a mouse or by tapping a phone app.
And they take the K of C Free Throw in Canada, about as seriously as Canadians take Hockey & The CFL.
This Neighbourhood is pretty interesting, Eh. The Country covered by CBC, CTV & Global is watching a little local competition, produced on an iPod Touch 4G.
Enjoy it as much, as I have enjoyed bringing it to You.
PS: We know that we'll have made it Big Time when Rex says something about it.
