Season-ending surgery for Curt Schilling
The Curt Schilling saga may have come to an end. In his weekly interview on WEEI this morning, the Red Sox right-hander announced he will have surgery on right shoulder, ending his 2008 season and likely his career.
"There's a pretty decent chance that I've thrown my last pitch forever," the 41-year-old righthander said. "I don't want it to end this way, but if this is the way it has to end, I'm OK with that. If it's over and my last pitch was in the 2007 World Series, I'm OK with that. I just can't stress enough where I am mentally with this. I have not a regret in the world.
"None of this makes me bitter or angry. It is what it is. In that sense, honestly, it's very, very easy for me, because of what I've been able to experience compared to what I wanted when I first started my career. But if I have some say in how this is gonna end, I want it to be different than what it is right now." The Curt Schilling saga may have come to an end.

Yankees Cursed this Season?
A devilish Boston fan working on a concrete crew at the new $1.3 billion Yankee Stadium covertly buried a Red Sox T-shirt under what will become the visiting team's locker room to jinx the Yanks.
The culprit is a mason - born and raised in the Country Club section of southeast Bronx.
"As I stuck it in, I said, 'The Yankees are done for the next 30 years.' I only put a 30-year curse because I'm 46 and in 30 years I'll be dead, and I won't care if the Yankees win then," said "Gino," who spoke from a construction job in Manhattan.

Red Sox anti-hero Buckner forgiven and invited back to Fenway to throw ceremonial ...
Many years ago... Vin Scully once said, "If a picture is worth a thousand words, you have just seen a million..."
And then Sox Nation as immature as Sox nation has been known to be, ran an innocent former batting champ named Bill Buckner out of town...
(Calvin Schiraldi and Bob Stanley however are still treated like Red Sox heroes... depite Buckner being considered a cuss word in New England)
Finally after billions of dollars invested into 2 championships later, the Red Sox organization and unruly mob known as Sox Nation has decided to forgive the man more than 20 years later... and have promised to stop with the death threats...
He then got to throw out the ceremonial first pitch for the Red Sox home opener this year... Many years ago... Vin Scully once said, "If a picture is worth a thousand words, you have just seen a million..." ... more -

Pedro Martinez wants all you doubters to know that he dominated and he did it clea...
Yes... with everyone doubting the accomplishments of everyone in baseball following the Clemens and Bonds hooplah, Pedro has announced that he did it clean.
He won three Cy Young Awards...
He truly did dominate, and we should laud his accomplishments,
Not everyone can win 3 Cy Youngs, a World Series, and throw Don Zimmer in their career.
AND he carries a midget in his entourage!!
I know many who see a baseball posting on here, jump out to be total "haters..."
But Pedro is a true role model...
"I have a small frame and when I hurt all I could do was take a couple of Aleve or Advil, a cup of coffee and a little mango and an egg -- and let it go!"
Typing this was painful, I will go take my Aleve-Advil-coffee-mango-egg power shake... Yes... with everyone doubting the accomplishments of everyone in baseball following the Clemens and Bonds hooplah, Pedro has announced... more -
Just a furniture store?
At Jordan's furniture, you can learn to be a trapeze artist, watch liquid fireworks, go see an IMAX movie, sample jelly bean flavors, eat dinner at a local burger place- Fudruckers, sample your favorite ice cream at the "Big Dig," which serves Richardson's ice cream, and if you really want to, shop for furniture. It's quite the experience...
Plus, Jordan's made a promise to Red Sox fans:
"Consumers purchasing a mattress, dining table, sofa, or bed at a Jordan's store location between March 7,2007 and April 16, 2007 will receive a rebate of the purchase price paid for the Deal Merchandise if (but only if) the Boston Red Sox® win the 2007 Major League Baseball World Championship®." Looks like they have some rebates to go through..

Boston Restaurants are Everywhere! (Even in Florida..)
Boston's on the Beach
"The seaside eatery, known for its New England-style menu and walls covered in Rex Sox memorabilia, was packed with Red Sox fans Wednesday night all eager to watch and cheer for their team facing the Colorado Rockies. By the time the second inning was under way, the place was packed a sea of red, navy and white Rex Sox shirts and hats. Some flew in from Boston, while others drove from as far as Broward County and Port St. Lucie to watch the game." Boston's on the Beach ... more -
Final World Series Ball is Missing
In a case of celebration, confusion and assumption, the final ball of this year's World Series is missing. The winning Red Sox have no idea where the ball ended up. Catcher Jason Varitek swears that pitcher Jonathan Papelbon tucked the ball away, but neither have the missing link. This may just be a case of committing nostalgia to memory.

Red Sox Sweep the Series!
I've suffered through years of frustration as a Boston fan. Since I was a kid, you name the team, and I've just about lived and died by how they've done. Now, the Sox have swept their second World Series in four seasons and the Patriots are this century's NFL dynasty. Yeah, sure, it's been a short century...let me have my fun. Now, if the Bruins could only find their next Bobby Orr, or the Celts could find their next Larry Bird, I think I could finally let it all go.

A Night at the World Series: The scene at Fenway Park as the Red Sox beat the Rock...
BOSTONHere are a few ways in which a World Series game is different than a regular-season game. In the regular season, you typically place your ticket in your wallet after entering the ballpark. At a World Series game, it is socially acceptable to place the stub in a polyurethane sleeve and wear it around your neck on a lanyard emblazoned with the Taco Bell logo. This is slightly irritating.
