Two a days

I never played football, so the term "two a day" doesn't make me cringe like it might make some ex-football players do. To me, it just means doing something twice in one day, like eating 2 cheese burgers instead of one, or drinking two beers per NFL game yesterday (admittedly that turns into more of a 12 a day, but after 3 games you stop counting). In baseball terms, it means putting the new country music sensation "Clay and Jon" on the hill for a Sunday double header and reminding the Rays that 2007 was indeed a fluke. The Sox outscored the Rays 16-2 this weekend. In short, they handed Sir Spits-a-lot and Big Game James their respective taints, and their 11th loss in a row, and are now enjoying a well deserved Monday off.

Of course an off day means we'll come up with something stupid that we find funny, and a lot of you find stupid. If you aren't used that yet, please check out some older posts and get re-acquainted with our funny.

Garza leaks

A painful loss by the Sox last night, losing in the 13th on a Longoria dinger. Props to Delcarmen and Double R (Ramon Ramirez) for getting out of some big jams in the late innings, but to no avail. However the most painful part of last night's game was watching Matt Garza on the hill. Not necessarily for his pitching prowess, but witnessing his spitting fits. He is in loogie mode the entire time, drenching the mound with saliva every 5-10 seconds. Was Lester going out there every half inning to be welcomed by a mud pit? And is this disgusting habit something that Garza carries with him off the field? His dentist must love him.

More Trop ball tonight before the Sox head to the most expensive stadium in all the land for 4 big ones.
