I forgot one pick: New Orleans 27, ATLANTA 13
//someone mentioned Seth Mnookin's site, which I forgot to single out. It is top-notch. As someone else said, there are tons and tons of sites. Maybe I'll pick one per day and give it their due.//
No one had a problem with you promoting a single website, Rob. But for you to promote one that most fans equate with racism, anger and, basically, Red Sox hate, boggles the mind.
Jeesh! It's been that long since they stopped playing pepper! I'm old......
You don't look like Fred Flinstone!
I'm hearing things on WEEI and on other sites about a trade for the Nationals Chad Cordero?
Any word of that in sunny Florida?
In you have heard anything, what are some of the names going to the Nationals from the Sox?
If you haven't heard this, what would YOU be willing to give to get a proven closer on this roster.
Keep up the good work, I have really enjoyed your blog!!
Rob, two questions.
1. The bullpen. What are the chances that the Red Sox do try the closer by committee plan again. I, for one, thought that circumstances and a lack of talent, not concept, prevented it from working the first time around. I think it might be worth another try.
2. When do the old-timers arrive and what do they do. Specifically, I'm interested in Yaz. What's he up to these days?
Also, I don't understand beazer's comment? Is he reffering to Mnookin? If so, not true, dude. Not true. Mnookin's stuff is great.
beazer was refering to bostondirtdogs not Mnookin.
Yup, got it now. I missed the replys to the previous post. BDD is supposed to be clever (although there is some debate as to whether it actually is.) Take it with a grain of salt. Sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's trite. But it always beats the hell out of deadspin.com, which is just plain arrogant and self-important.
BDD - three years - good, funny and had inside scoops

BDD - now--> awful, owned by the Globe. No one at the Globe likes Silva, hateful and racist.
remove it from your bookmarks.

Steve Silva is a flat-out racist. Deadspin has its own problems, but it doesn't pretend to represent a fanbase the way BDD does.
Rob,
Thanks for adding a great new blog to my RSS feed! I live out of town, and would rather read this than the Globe site. And thanks for the tip on Mnookin's blog.
A couple of the good Sox blogs that I like are 'Over the Monster' (http://www.overthemonster.com/) and 'Firebrand if the AL' (http://mvn.com/mlb-redsox/). Both are great fan-based sites.
And as long as we are on new media here, I will also throw out a couple of good podcasts. 'Corn, Gordon & Flanagan'(http://corngordon.mypodcasts.net/) has some great discussion (though only every 2 weeks), and 'The Original Red Sox Podcast' (http://redsoxpodcast.com/), a father & son team that has some more regular contributions.
ANy other worthwhile podcasts out there?
Rob-
is there a way to put direct links to your E-T articles? It's hard as hell to actually find your work on their website, and you seem to be the only journalist following the Sox that does any real work on a consistent basis.
