BEST ARTICLE EVER!!!! Prediction for Boston sports in 09!
This is the best article I have read in a long time. With the recent sadness Ive dealt with, from the Sox making it to game 7 but losing to the Rays, and the C's with their recent struggles even during the streak, BUT the Bruins who actually are playing great, and are on top of the hockey world, and the Pats who couldn't make it to the playoffs despite a 11-5 record, this...

Dr. Bebop (The Witty Hamster) asked: On a tour of Florida, the Pope took a couple of days off to visit the coast for some sightseeing. He was cruising along the beach in the Pope mobile when there was a frantic commotion just off shore. A helpless man, wearing a Boston Red Sox jersey, was [...]
Who does David Ortiz of the Boston Red Sox point to after he crosses the plate from a homerun?

MASN Sports is reporting that the White Sox and Orioles are discussing a trade that would send Brian Roberts to the White Sox for Gavin Floyd. Floyd, who went 17-8 with a 3.84 ERA in thirty-three starts for the White Sox, has the makings of a top of the rotation starter. His numbers did fluctuate some towards the end of the season, but nothing that raised a red flag. The Orioles...
