The Off day

Am I a little off on this off day or ...

... is Heidi Watney better than Hazel Mae? There is something about her.

... is Eck better than Remy in the booth? I know RemDawg is going through some serious health issues but I do enjoy watching a game and not hearing about his web site, hot dogs and presidency of Red Sox Nation.

... is Big Papi looking like he is getting out of his doldrums? That two run opposite field bomb through a stiff wind versus Atlanta was impressive.

... does Ramon Ramirez look like he needs a little time away from "hold" opportunities? Opposing hitters have been teeing off on him of late.

... is Terry Francona the perfect manager for this team? He has handled the team well during crisis (Manny, Papi's slump, etc.), he seems to always say the right thing and he hardly ever gets out managed during a game.

... are the Red Sox almost unbeatable during home stands? The Friendly Fenway advantage is certainly hard to beat.

... do those road gray uniform tops need to burned in favor of the alternate blue tops? Those things look too much like the Yankee road jerseys.

... do the Boston Red Sox look like the favorites to win the 2009 World Series?

Heidi ove Hazel...ya think?
Eck will wear on us over the course of the season..but it's good to hear Don O laughing again.
The road uni's need just a litlle bit more red.
Terry is the best manager in the history of the team. See: two WS rings.

Steve ... agree on all points. I sense you are a Hazel fan. Yeah, I think Heidi. I may be a little off but she has that girl next door thing going on.

Hapi for Papi said...

Oh how one quickly forgets, I remember when Hazel was the sh**! Remember hearing a story from a friend about how he "bumped" into her at some baseball clinic & had to go change his wears. Heidi's good but she couldn't hold Hazel's thong.

Interesting story Hapi. However, we are in the here and now. Heidi Watney over Hazel Mae. Heidi is the real thing and Hazel clearly is not.
