This is a list of posts published in May 2007.
Lost: The Brig
Ed busted out two posts last Sunday for the two episodes of Lost previous to tonight. Get that?
Anyway, I busted out some comments before watching tonight’s, so here are my comments about “The Brig” and I’d comment about the ladies, but I don’t remember who was looking particularly fine that night, so we’ll go with Kate for old times sake… oh wait, didn’t she start off the episode in Sawyer’s arms? Ick!
Rockets red glare
I wanted to add this aside to my previous post on Clemen$ because this is the kind of stuff I like to read.
Jim Caple has a funny write-up of the speech Roger must have given to his mates on Page 2. It includes this great outtake:
“You shall fight in Boston and you shall fight in Baltimore. You shall fight special education teachers in the bullpen, you shall fight in front of the dugout with that punk Pedro Martinez. You shall fight in Florida, you shall fight in Canada and other foreign countries like Cleveland.”
Then you have Sports Guy Bill Simmons weighing in, as you knew he would, with a good list of 10 reasons I’m happy the Rocket signed with the Yankees. Jason already added #7 as his comment on my post, which was a good one of course, but I like the reader e-mail in #10 by John F. in Kansas: “This is historic … who ever heard of a rat jumping ON a sinking ship?”
Ballcapgate
This is funny and weird. I happened to click on Boston.com at the right time today to be presented with a photo of Tom Brady strolling the streets of NYC with his horse-faced girlfriend. It would seem the slow news day (???) has the guys at the Globe/web site looking to generate some buzz because he’s sporting a Yankee cap
Checking up on the count now, it looks like they are getting it too. I actually felt the need to comment because there were only a few lame ones when I got there. Sorry, but Papi wearing the cap for a commercial should generate more fan outrage than this…
D’oh, I should have said that! Not that anyone is probably reading the comments now anyway… but, check mine out at the bottom of page 2.
SportsCenter top ten
Joe passed along a link to someone’s top 10 SportsCenter commercials post. It has YouTube linked vids. Wally and Ortiz made the list, so I thought it was appropriate to post here given I posted on that recently.

You’ll have to copy and paste the URI… I don’t want any traffic from these guys… they report on futbol.
Lost: D.O.C.
It’s funny, Ed wrote pretty much everything I would hit on with respect to this episode, so I thought I wouldn’t write that much, but then… I did. Anyway, my comments are on his post as per the usual.
For another usual… Sun was looking right fit helping Kate with her tent, am I right? Jin is a lucky fictional man…

Can you hear it now?
I had been formulating a post in my brain since the minute I heard the news of Roger Clemens going back to the Yankees, but I didn’t have time to pump it out.
Then, Ed beat me to the punch last night, so I was content to simply post a comment there. But, as I started writing, I realized there was no way I could express this as a comment, so I had to bang out this. I had to add a post to the Clemens fire in the Blogosphere.
I was listening to the Sox game on Sunday afternoon when Castiglione, or that new clown — not Dave O’Brien, the other guy — announced the Rocket made an appearance on the Yankee Stadium jumbotron. Ed and I had just taken in Spider-Man 3 and were headed back to his house for some beer and burgers, so when we stopped at a packy to pick up the beer we had a quick chat as we peeped our choice of brew.
We were traveling separately, so when I got out, the... Continue reading »
