Red Sox win 3rd game of the season!

Red Sox win 3rd game of the season!

They lost the first two to the Evil empire, but yesterday was great.

Mariano Rivera blew a save, gave up 5 runs, no help from A-Rod who bobbled what could have been the game ending double play, and got booh-ed by the ever faithful New York fans as he was relieved.

Ha Ha Ha

It's still way too early and we are down a game, but really for me the season doesn't start until the first pitch is thrown in Fenway.

159 games to go........

The world could use.....

Spring is finally here in New England

Got out at lunch and did a road ride today, even though all I had with me was my cold weather gear (long sleeve jersey and pants)I was a little over dressed, but it was great to be out and not freezing.
I ended up taking my gloves off and stuffing them in my jersey pocket.
I'm going down a hill and as I get close to the bottom I get passed by a car and it slows down about 50ft in front of me, I can see a hand pop out of the window and the passenger window starts to roll down.
Here is the dialogue:
Driver:"Hi."
Me:"Hi."
Driver:"You lost your glove back there."
Me:"Oh, thanks"
Driver:"No problem."

I felt like such a 'tard.
