Remy and Don are the anti-Jack Edwards
Alright, maybe it’s not fair for me to pick on Jack Edwards since he is toiling away in lockout-land BUT the Wall Street Journal recently did a small study to see who gets the title of ‘Biggest Homer in Baseball’ and his name was the first to come to mind when I heard the term [...]
1st annual ‘NVRQT Night’
I, like many other Sox fans, was thrilled to see the team get out from the albatross deals given to Josh Beckett and Adrian Gonzalez.

Over the summer the Red Sox pulled a classy move and filmed their own ‘It Gets Better‘ commercial. If you’re not aware of the program, ‘It Gets Better’ was created to help those young people who are dealing with bullying and homophobia. The message is pretty simple: You are who you are, please don’t do [...]
