From There to Here

From tonight’s Red Sox game, when Remy and Orsillo decide its best in the fourth inning to debate “which way the moon is going to move tonight”:
Orsillo: I wonder if the wind has anything to do with it.
Remy: The wind moves the moon? (incredulously)
Orsillo: I don’t know!
(a minute passes; camera focuses on wind blowing right-to-left)
Remy: […]

Really, it is. And I’m not drinking milk. I know how bad a choice it is.
It’s literally 86 degrees right now at 7 p.m. It’s the end of September. This is insane.
Anyway, my fantasy football team scored the second-to-last points in the league this week. Lucky for me, I was playing Dan, who scored the […]

I thought the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus pregnancy story lacked a good deal of veracity, and sure enough, it’s not true.
I guess that’s a good thing, although I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall at Disney HQ this morning.

The Disney Channel has some serious PR problems.
First, the whole Vanessa Hudgens scandal, where the High School Musical star has not-so-clothed photos of her posted on the Internet. Ashley Tisdale had a “wardrobe malfunction” on the red carpet.
And now this?
J-14 Magazine, a monthly teen gossip rag, is reporting that the 15-year-old star of the […]

So Mike messages me with the following question:

Well, the movie, which is awful, has one Tara Reid/Jerry O’Connell sex scene, but that’s about all.
Oh, and it got a 4.7 rating on IMDB. Amazing! The best part is people on the board can’t even figure out what the hell is going on in the movie […]

I’ve got the same viewing preferences as The Boston Globe, apparently…
After I posted my takes on Gossip Girl (mirrors the OC) and Kid Nation (thought it was pretty good), The Boston Globe’s reporters offered their thoughts this morning.
Pop culture reporter and critic Joanna Weiss plays talks about the similarities to The OC, much like I […]

The Red Sox lost tonight. The Yankees won. Our once 14.5 game lead in the AL is down to 1.5. Our best record in baseball is now the third best record in the American League behind the Angels and the Indians. I am officially pushing the panic button.

I’ve come to the conclusion (read: given up) […]

The Sox have a lineup that can’t score runs on occasions. They’re had inconsistent starting pitching lately. So when they get a 7-inning, 1-run performance from Lester, what does the bullpen — namely Eric Gagne — do?
Squander it and screw the Red Sox. This is the THIRD game he’s DIRECTLY lost for us. It’s the […]

(If you don’t care about Fantasy Football, check back later today or tomorrow for a different post)
While I could have pointed this out yesterday, as neither Chris (who I was playing) or I had any Monday Night Football players this week, I’ll discuss today how good my fantasy football team has been:
I’m in second place […]
