Boston Marathon

1:55 pm Set TiVo for BoSox Game
2:00 pm Go across street to watch World Cup final .
3:00 pm Check out beginning of Sox game on TiVo - Hey Sox up by one!!!
4:00 pm World Cup goes into OT and then penalty kicks. Hey they're running the Dunkin Donuts commercial with the karate kid on national TV!
5:30 pm Return home to watch Sox game on TiVo
6:30 pm Sox now up by one with Papelbon on in the ninth. Will catch final inning and go to gym. Oops. I have now caught up to live action. Sox go up 2 in the 11th and then WS tie it up. Dye is OUT!!! Appeal!!
6:45 pm Drive to gym. Listen to game on XM in car. I note that Taverez is now pitching so Sox will go down. Leave car to go to gym, where game will end.
7:30 pm ESPN update on TV says game still tied!!
8:00 pm Leave gym and drive home. White Sox announcers sound tired and just want it to end.
8:20 pm Arrive home and turn on TV to catch rest of game. But satellite is game is off - game lasts beyond 6 hours.
8:30 pm Sox lose.

Tough game, good series. D-Rays rise up and keep Yankees at bay.

Stay tuned, second half will be interesting.

Sox/Marlins Take Series From Marlins/Sox



OK, do not get excited, the NL is a JV league and the AL East and Central murdered the NL Least and Central, but you gotta like the balanced approach this team takes to winning. They can beat you with pitching, defense, speed, power hitting, clutch hitting and situational hitting. Cupcakes are now gone and the Sox get back to AL ball. Let's keep it rolling, I'm not sure that the Wild Card will be there this year as safety net.
