Day 2: Another victory

Sweet. Still waiting to hoist Yankee 2009 championship flag. Two and oh. Undefeated and untied. If I can keep this through the trade deadline, we cannot be swindled. Redsock fans in the mist. Must be careful. They don't know I'm blogging. Ha. Complaints about Jacoby Ellsbury. Music to ears. Says Jacoby not showing what it takes to be Redsock. Ha. Wondering when Lil Dustin will return. Outlined idea that he should come back now, bat .144 for three weeks, then tweak gonad and be out for season. Didn't laugh. Got into furious argument about Mariano. Nobody disses Mo. Mentioned Dave Roberts. Typical. They always mention Dave Roberts. Gotta go. Here comes one now.

  1. What do they say about Dave Roberts?

    Who is Dave Roberts?

    I used to use Bob Roberts as an alias when I was a kid.

  2. In 2004 ALCS, the Red Sox used Dave Roberts as a Pinch runner in Game 4 when the Yanks had a one run lead to steal bases and put pressure on the Yankee bullpen. (I can't remember if it was Tom Gordon or Mo) but the end result was that he stole a base and scored and tied up the game for the Sux, and the rest is history...

  3. They probably named a freeway after him in beantown.

  4. They've got their Dave Roberts moment and its aftermath, and it still hurts, but we'll always have Bucky Dent, Aaron Boone, and the Babe. Not to mention Danny Cater for Sparky Lyle.
