Are Young Red Sox Fans Spoiled?

Are Red Sox young fans spoiled? I went my whole life as a child living with the misery of the Red Sox never winning a championship.Not to mention my Dad who of course went through all his life with Red Sox heartache. Many Red Sox fans never even lived long enough to even witness a title.My nephew is twelve years old and he has already witness two Red Sox championship in his short lifetime. It is just not fair damnit, where is the suffering? where is the heartache that comes with being born a Red Sox fan? If the Red Sox don’t win for a long time again will the current young Red Sox nation still stick with them as we always did no matter how much disapointment they gave us in not winning all those years.I say enjoy it while it last because you just don’t know how long the success will last. It really is not this easy to win championships just ask all the previous great Red Sox teams of the past.

Well of course we have to take him out statistic show pitchers are far less effective when they reach 100 pitches. Who came up with this crazy concept and why 100 pitches because it is a nice round number? Read more

View from the Luxury Box

I was able to make another Red Sox game in Tampa this week and was our first time sitting in a luxury box, We were lucky enough to be invited by our friends who had the box from their company. I tell you what it was a great experience and we may have been spoiled as I don’t think I want to sit in a regular seat ever again. Read more

Johnny Damon hits wall, ball sits on top of Wall

When the New York Yankees play the Boston Red Sox you can always expect the unexpected. By yesterdays game has the strangest play you’ll ever see in baseball.

With two men on base Kevin Youkilis hit a deep fly to left field. Johnny Damon leaped and caught the ball. Well not exactly he caught it till he hit the left field wall. The ball popped out of Damon’s glove and landed on the four inch wide wall and sat there for at least two seconds. The ball rolled off the wall into fail ground. Johnny Damon sat up not knowing where the ball was. A Yankee staff member started yelling and pointed to the ball, that was resting on the ground behind Damon. Damon got the ball and threw it in. Kevin Youkilis ended up with a triple and two RBI’s, tying the game.
