I’m Alive! And It’s Opening Day at Fenway!

I hope you will forgive me for my absence these last few months. I bought a house and have been utterly unable to absorb and form opinions about anything in the sports world. This 0-6 start, however, roused me from my stupor, so here I am on this beautiful quasi-spring day, brimming with optimism that today might just be the day when our boys get their first win of 2011.

Ever willing to do my part to help the righteous cause, I have prepared the office scoreboard for this afternoon’s game. Note the Yankee voodoo doll with strategically placed pin. No sense going for the shoulder or hamstring or groin; best to go straight for the heart. Because we need that much help right now.
