we are your 2007 car care overlords

Touchdown, Humanity.

I should have shown up at halftime. In fact, let's forget everything about the first half. What transpired afterwards is way cooler. Twenty-four unanswered points, despite the special team's seeming inability to make the first, second, or third attempted tackle. Micah Andrews suddenly becoming the guy who hangs on to the football. The defense not budging on crucial 3rd and 4th downs. Skinner Skinnering.

Au revoir Kenny Moore, Steve Justice and all our seniors.

By the way, it runs you $7.25 to get some nachos in BoA Stadium's club level. Oy.

red sox get away clean?

Results yielding from a search for Red Sox in the pdf file of the Mitchell report were limited to recent sox Eric Gagne and Brendan Donnelly. Save for Clemens and Mo Vaughn, no prominent former Red Sox are there - no Nomar, Damon, or Pedro, and - blessed be the Lord - no Trot. Big names like Pujols, A-Rod, Santana and Howard are absent as well. With rumors of Clemens and Tejada now being confirmed, this is not a pretty day for baseball, but it could have been much worse. There were no "Wow!" moments as far as I can tell. Andy Pettitte is probably the biggest surprise, at least to me. For now, we can still root for home-run artists like David Ortiz, Albert Pujols and Ryan Howard with a clean conscious.

About two hours ago, information was leaked that Pujols, Trot, and Varitek were to be named in the report, but thankfully that was false and it looks like I won't be having any crisis-of-faith for any of my favorite players.
