but matt "i'm afraid of the ball like a girl in 6th grade gym" clement has one in every color?

Because he needed to win, even then. Because winning meant eating the last of the macaroni and cheese. Winning meant getting to the toy or the bathroom or 21 first. Winning meant recognition. For a kid who was sharing parents with younger twin brothers, winning meant everything.

From a piece apparently written by a Boston Globe staffer, but not appearing on boston.com. Possibly because it's melodramatic like WHOA. "BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! And um, also a sweet mom?" Though you'd think she could have shopped it to the Herald.

Good times, quick read, found here.

Despite all the blood in Pap's past, the best thing I read today was still from ESPN's Rumor Central (let's all pause and thank my brother for his Insider account) regarding the Sox's potential interest in Colorado's Ray King:

According to the Denver Post, the Rockies are shopping King in exchange for a reliever such as Boston's Rudy Seanez or Atlanta's Jorge Sosa, who have slumped and could benefit from a change of scenery.

Slumped? SLUMPED? I think that when you're SLUMPED OVER DEAD there's a different way to put it. Also, will Rudy really want to leave now that he's got that gig on the Red Line? They definitely don't have the T in Denver, so I guess it'll be back to the ol' bus route for him. More on the trade talk here.

I told kelly at dinner tonight that I want a Timlin shirt, but had little hope. My online search did finally find it, but only in navy, and since I look like death if I wear colors that dark, I weep. On the up(?) side, I did learn that, as predicted, Papelbon has been deemed a pink t-shirt worthy kind of guy.


And now it's back to convincing the PM to learn reiki and head on over to Wake's house with her healing hands.

I didn't have my computer's sound on so I assume I missed the theme from Gladiator that no doubt accompanies that first article about Papelbon?

Also, this: //"I don't think that they fear me."//

No, muffin, they fear you. You make them wet themselves. Well played.

And a clip of him shouting "Do I not ENTERTAIN you?" Absolutely.

Oh, exactly. Of course, how this is to be reconciled with the dude who fancies himself a doctor of kickassery in Scrabble is one of life's great mysteries. I mean, like, greater than the Loch Ness Monster or the Secret of King Tut's Tomb, probably.

Hey winning is everything in Scrabble, too.

He's got blood in his eyes about the triple word score and you may not fear his ability to make a word using five vowels, a 'V,' and a 'Y,' but you will respect it.

He needs some Scrabble music, is the thing. I would suggest the Jackson 5's "ABC" but he would likely laugh in my face, and then strike me out. And then I would cry. And Jon(athan) Papelbon clearly has no time for sissies.

Pretty sure he'd eat all your mac and cheese and tell your mom that you're a loser. Best let him pick his own music.

I think my mom already has serious questions about my sanity so she might be inclined to agree with him. But bitch don't be messing with my mac and cheese!

Papelbon's just saying that mac & cheese is for winners, babe.

I appreciate the helpful information. Personally, I always leave a useful comment. I get plenty of useless, spammy comments on my own site that I have to get rid of.

You also know how to make people rally behind it, obviously from the responses taking time and real effort to make a good article !!
