While I’m invariably a fiercely loyal conference, division, and league fan, I’ll be switching sides to root for the Senior Circuit tonight.
I’m tired of the Red Sox celebrating their World Championship sweeps on someone else’s field.
With an NL win tonight, the Sox will win the trophy in the Fens for once . . .

Go National League!
Sox Freefall? I think not . . .
So Tampa Bay just swept the Red Sox in Tampa to take a 3.5 game lead and the Sox llimp into the Bronx tonight to play their arch-rival New York Yankees. Things certainly appear to be grim. Will this thus-far disappointing season end with the Sox not making the playoffs?

Phil Steele’s 2008 Predictions
As I told you last year, Phil Steele’s College Football Preview is the best preseason football magazine in America. It also ranks as the most accurate magazine over the past 9 years. Last year, it was not the most accurate partly because he ignored 17 5th-year seniors and a weak schedule and picked BC to finish last [...]

“The best defense I’ve seen in my time in the NBA.”
Strong words from NBA All-Star and 2006 Finals MVP Dwayne Wade, describing the 2008 World Champion Boston Celtics. The Celts won last night, once again proving that good defense beats good offense every single time. Somewhere in heaven, Red is lighting up a cigar and cracking a broad grin.
Is your Wang hurt?
The final nail in the coffin of the 2008 Yankees may have been nailed yesterday afternoon when the Red Sox routed the Reds with 4 homers despite David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez both sitting, and the Yankees alleged “ace” C.M. Wang was carried off the field in what may end being a season-ending foot injury.

Conspiracy!!!
The free throw disparity in the 3 games of the NBA Finals, coupled with recent allegations of disgraced ex-NBA referee Tim Donaghy, has the conspiracy-nuts out in force this week, alleging game-fixing and a conspiracy inside the NBA front-office.
“The NBA wants the Celtics and Lakers in the Finals!”
“The NBA wants the series to go 7”
“The [...]
