Blog Show No. 16: ‘You Talked Over My One-Liner’
Continue Reading July 21st, 2007
This week’s show started slowly/awkwardly but picked up, naturally, when we began talking mustaches a few minutes in. You be the judge, and watch out for Bog Man Dan really wanting to discuss lip fur, me mistaking Bake McBride for an ex-Royal (which he was not), shout outs to Mr. Skin, our sexual proclivity for mascots, confusing Bon Jovi with G ‘n’ R and, of course, me stepping all over the Steinzian one-liners. Enjoy, and remember we’re having a viewing party of sorts for Blog Show XVII.

Everything was clicking in Boston last night and Terry Francona’s jaw was no exception. The Red Sox pounded Chicago 10-3 despite a botched (non) homerun call by the umpires leading to Francona’s righteous ejection. The Red Sox were led by another dominant performance by Josh Beckett. He struck out ten flailing Chicagoans on his way to joining C.C. Sabathia in the 13 win club. All four umpires are now being investigated by the FBI.
