A Prayer for the Redsocks

Our Father, Who Art in Heaven...

Let them win the Wild Card.

Let them enshrine Daniel Bard in the Hall of Fame at Cooperstown.

Let them celebrate full-return on their $100 million investment in Dice-K.

Let them dance over getting Jason Bay for that clown they never liked anyway, what was his name, o Lord, Manny Somethingorother?

Let them pretend Thy humble servants, the Mitchell Commission, truly investigated baseball for steroids and only found it on the Yankees.

Let them elect Thy greatest creation, Curt Schilling, to the U.S. Senate, so we can stop this ridiculous health care thing and return to the business of doubling the national deficit with weapons systems.

Let them absorb the salary chunks of Billy Wagner, Paul Byrd, Victor Martinez, Alex Gonzalez and Joey Gathright and still claim to be a thrifty, small market team.

Let them beat Thy lone error, the Orioles, 14 out of 16 games.



Let them be the hottest team in baseball...

This month.
