- Mike Clark of SportsPros(e) writes that maybe, just maybe, Griffey can still be the home run champ.
- Ugh, I always say I hate Mike Downey, and this column enforced those thoughts yet again. Downey confusingly says he’s stoked for Griffey’s arrival. At least I think he did. Really, none of it makes any sense. Looks like somebody has been watching the X-Games a little too much lately.
- Who would thought, Mariotti plays the NOT GOOD ENOUGH card. I can’t believe it. Best part:
A plan-another-parade trade, this is not. If the Sox truly were gunning for another championship, they would have thought bigger, bolder and younger -- and also would have addressed their pitching, defense and speed issues. In failing to land Huston Street or another reliever, Williams leaves the Sox scarily vulnerable in the bullpen. They are not, in other words, going to win another World Series this year.
Has there ever been a local columnist with such a distaste for a hometown team? ‘Insufferable douche’ isn’t even the tip of the iceberg with Jay. Needless to say, nothing would be more enjoyable than to see the Sox stick it to Jay for the second time in four years. Unlike Mariotti, I won’t completely write it off.
- Jeeves was following the story from the start. He’s pumped for the end of Nick Massett, but can’t be happy about Kenny Williams’ declaration that Griffey is going to play center field.
YES! I'm so glad you're a fan of Gogol Bordello. They are unbelievable live. I've seen them at Vegoose, Coachella and a small show in LA, their energy is unbelievable...Eugene (the lead singer) is crazy, I actually went drinking with him in Vegas.
And my advice to you for Rage, assuming you go in close, is keep a half bull bottle of water in your pocket and then pour it on your face half way through the show. At Vegoose, I was in the second row of people and, honestly it was the wettest I've been outside a body of water or a bathtub.

I've been lifting for the Rage mosh pit for the last three weeks. I think I'm ready.

And congratulations on Griffey. If you ever want to come over and see his 1989 Upper Deck Rookie card, just let me know.
I like how you say that as if I don't have my own.
Did the Beau basher leave the network?
I want to see Rage in concert before I die, the How I could Just Kill a Man cover might be one of my favorite songs of all time
No Bloc Party? Are you kidding me?
