Not looking good

The Sox are currently down 8-4 in the bottom of the 9th. Taking two out of three from a good team like Cleveland is sweet, but I wasn't too happy with Dice-K's mess in the 6th. He was zooming along fine, then suddenly gives up four runs. That's how it's been with Matsuzaka so far. 80% of the time he's brilliant, but he has these blips where he either loses his control, or starts getting hit hard. I'd still take him over anyone on the Yankees staff, though.

Figures, the day I decide to start keeping a sports blog, the Red Sox lose, and the Yankees win.

I hate off days. Sox are off tomorrow before beginning a three game series with Bumbling Bombers. I'd love to see them drive in the stake and sweep the Yanks.

Yooouuuuk!

Red Sox 1B Kevin Youkilis just started his own blog, and the first entry is pretty funny. He talks about an ongoing debate between himself and little Dustin Pedroia as to who is faster. If you ask me, it's sort of like wondering who would win a race between a snail and a slug.

1st entry, gotta start somewhere

Boy, the Yankees really do suck.

As a huge New England sports fan, it feels so good to see them suffer so badly this year. I can see the Evil Empire crumbling before my eyes, and it's about time.

Yeah, I'm a Red Sox fan obsessed with New York. What can I say, at least I admit it.

I really wanted this blog to be called Bouncing Balls, but that name, along with assorted variations of it, was taken, so I guess my balls will have to smoke instead. I could've had Bouncing Ballz, but I refuse to participate in the ongoing abuse of the English language. Plus, I smoke. A lot.

I follow the major Boston sports teams, and the media that covers them. After keeping a personal journal on LiveJournal for the past seven years, I feel like I need an outlet that's not about me. I'll be blogging (a word I hate, but I've given in) about sports, the media, and random other topics like about how I think Lindsay Lohan is an ugly skank who doesn't deserve to be famous.

As of right now, the Red Sox have the best record in baseball, lead the division by 11.5 games, and have a 14.5 game lead on the Yanks. They've already won the series against the 2nd best team in baseball, winning the first two games against the Indians. The most exciting pitcher in baseball, Dice-K Matsuzaka goes for the sweep tonight. Life is good.
