is in vintage Brian Anderson form this ST.

Since he is from UGA, and I know a little about those douche bags, I think he has a 50/50 shot of getting an STD in ST, ending up in jail for date raping a girl with a roofie, and getting drunk at a bar with Brian Anderson and punching a UF or SC fan in the face.

I hope he avoids all of those, for our sake. Because so far this spring, he looks like the future at 2B, maybe 3B.

an opening day lineup of beckham at ss and alexei at 2nd is better both offensively and defensively than alexei at ss and getz/lilli/nix at 2nd? or alexei at ss and beckham at 2nd?

and i’m not upset with it. it could have been better, but it did not suck

I had a dream that the sox lost this game, but maybe the dream needs to be interpreted another way

My boyfriend and I have been together for almost a year and a half now, and I love him dearly. He stays at my house a couple of nights a week, and there have been three separate occasions when he has wet the bed; however, he doesn’t know that I know he wet the bed. I feel bad because I can tell when it happens that he’s terrified and just praying to God that I don’t roll over and realize that the bed is soaked. I just don’t know how to tell him that I know. I don’t want him to ever feel ashamed of it (my brother had this problem when we were growing up), and there is no way I would ever think less of him because of this. How do I broach the subject? I just want him to know it is nothing to be embarrassed about without embarrassing him.

Bartolo Colon
The Sox do a good job with reclamation projects. Whether that’s because of Kenny Williams or Don Cooper or Herm Schneider doesn’t really matter, as long as the job is getting done. Over the past couple of years, the Sox have always been among the best teams at preventing injuries and keeping their DL days low. Colon has looked good in camp, but like last year, the worry is more about just sustaining his performance than it is about getting him to reach a certain peak level. Unlike last year, Colon is not just a patch for the rotation that’s buying them time, but an integral part of the winning plan. It’s also possible that the Sox have Jose Contreras returning, giving them a few options at the back of the rotation. The risk is that there’s a real drop-off behind those two. Yes, Clayton Richards is there, but while he showed he can pitch effectively, no one believes that he’s more than a back-end guy. Colon is the key, and even with the early positive signs, I’m dubious.

note that i posed it with “ready.”

it was good while it lasted…

Gordo is a SS… too bad we can’t just put Alexi out at CF (maybe in a few years)
