Soxwoman Speaks

The Good:

Bartolo Colon looked really sharp last night. Now, not everybody can carry off that David Wells je ne sais quoi, but he does it with aplomb. 'Way to go, big guy!

J.D. Drew has that MVP look about him, doesn't he? He can't do anything wrong lately, and it's almost like you're afraid that the Faithful are going to boo him when he doesn't hit a home run, or call one off the foul pole a cheap shot.  

You know your team is having a good night when you can honestly admire a great grab by the opposition. Adam Jones made a great catch in the far part of center field last night, and I didn't even want to punch somebody.

The Bad:

Thank you for your service, Mr. Timlin, but...you suck. And you're running out of time to turn it around. Please, can't someone put this poor man out of his misery?

Dustin Pedroia's stock is dropping like a rock every time he gets up to bat these days. Another 0-fer performance last night, and the Mighty Mite is hitting a pretty dismal .264 as we speak. Sophomore slump? Or maybe he just needs a little fatherly advice from Mr. Drew?

The Ugly:

Kobe Bryant: "Go Yankees." Wow, great comeback, you idiot. What a baby. Here's to Pierce & Co. cleaning your clock tonight.

Last game of the homestand (*sniff*) ends with Lester vs Guthrie at Celtics time, then it's on to the road at Cincy and Philly. Please, let's hope we can get through the Reds without having to listen to Bronson Arroyo sing...
