WatchHere’s a clip from a Fox 25 News segment this morning about Paul Nardizzi’s new Sox book: How To Annoy A Yankees Fan (considering that I’m a New Yorker, my guess is that this blog qualifies). Despite the lame interview by epic cornball Gene Lavanchy, this is good stuff; Paul and his co-author Dave Barend are hilarious.
As an added bonus, my longtime Boston Phoenix (and Weekly...

Must-Have Sox Tech: The Boston Herald Red Sox App
Anyone who knows my work outside of the Sox Mobster project are probably aware of my animosity toward the Boston Herald, where I was formerly employed as a freelance music writer.
While I’m still friendly with many people over there, I have nothing but disdain for most of their columnists - particularly that sentimental douche Joe Fitzgerald and the impossible dickhead Howie Carr.
All...
Larry David Doesn't Hate the Red Sox As Much as He... →
Good news? Or who the fuck cares?
jerkasaurus:
In an upcoming episode this season, David will seek out the advice of former Red Sox first baseman Bill Buckner after letting a ground ball get by him during a softball game.
After writing the script for the episode, David initially worried if Buckner would want to play along.
“I didn’t want to change the character to Bruckner,” David admits. ...

Must-Read On The McCourt Saga
This Vanity Fair article about the McCourts (of L.A. Dodgers infamy) is fucking brutal. It’s one of those profiles in wealth that makes me happy to be poor. Seems like they were happy here in Boston, before they moved to Los Angeles to become bourgeois douchebags.

Bruins Post-Cup Bar Tab from Foxwoods
More than enough to impress any douchebag / Diddy fan.
Still, congrats, once again, to the Bs.
Watch the Sox spend like 30 times this come the post-Series throwdown.

Now That's What The Fuck I Call A Chain Reaction
Right when I was about to tweet earlier about how Ortiz sports a chain thicker than something you’d find on a Beastie Boy in 1987…
…dude goes and smacks a three-run line-drive homer over the right field wall. I suppose it’s okay for him to bat with that kind of ridiculous weight around the neck.

A Note On Drinking, Patio-Style, Near Fenway
Baseball Tavern vs. Eastern Standard
Before any of you Sox diehards torch a Phoenix street box for mentioning Eastern Standard and the Baseball Tavern in the same breath, consider how annoying it would be to pre-game alongside peeps who sip pricey egg-infused cocktails. You probably also wouldn’t want friends who are walking through Kenmore to see you elbowed up to baseball fans who wear...

Update On Boston MC-Athlete Favorite Akrobatik...
An artist always on the move, Akro’s health scare did not come from a lack of exercise. He tours extensively with an energetic stage show worthy of his moniker. An ad hoc correspondent for NESN (and formerly for JAM’N 94.5 FM), he’s frequently out and about at New England sporting events. Until last year, he even played fullback for the Randolph Oilers in the Eastern...

Not Sure Why, But I Thought Sox Mobster Fans Might...
Mikey Connors of Peabody growls at his opponents from across the folding table. Whipping the crowd into hysterics, the beer-pong heavyweight steps back from the edge and starts to kick his heels up like a bull about to charge. He lets out a vicious bark. With fans behind velvet ropes stomping around in spilled suds, Connors tucks his head down, lunges, and launches himself forward so that...

Why Boston Doesn't Riot (All That Much)
Boston doesn’t riot all that much anymore, and there may even be a nerdy scientific kind of reason for that. If you missed it last years when the Celtics made it to the finals, here’s my Phoenix article on the storefront window shattering phenomenon that Los Angeles has down to a science.
Also - here’s Deadspin’s take on the matter from 2007, by which time Boston had...

southrnbird asked: Thanks for following me. I really like your Red Sox tumblr and its the best Red Sox blog I've seen in awhile. I'm having a love/hate relationship right now, especially after that 11-0 game against the sucky Angels! That was really pathetic!
