Singapore Sox Fan: August 2006 Archive

Wednesday, August 30, 2006



So Papi has heart trouble. This season - this shining season which started with so much promise - gets worse and worse. It isn't even 2002, that promising team that got GradyLittled out of the playoffs. It just seems to be a parade of bad news.

In the wise words of that blues classic: If it weren't for bad luck, the Sox would have no luck at all...

Damn it. Damn it all to hell. At least get one for pride.

Meanwhile, I'll be amusing myself with stories of jerkass Yankee fans.

Now that's a way to extend a hitting streak. A sweet single. Boggs, Nomar, and Speaker up next on the Sox hitting streak record, and then where have you gone Dom DiMaggio?

And Wily Mo Pena's line drive dead centre homer looked like it was still rising as it cleared the Monster. Good lord.

I know, I've been extremely tardy about posting here. Went to Bangkok for work, and you know, one night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble... then something screwed up on my hosting (well, okay, I did: I hadn't updated the expiry date of the credit card on store with the hosting company...). But Singapore Sox Fan is back.

In the interim the Sox went on a freefall. Ugh. The Kansas freakin' Royals?

I like deifying Theo as much as the next guy, but I still have serious doubts about his post-2004 FA deals, particularly not going all out on Pedro and pursuing Clement...

Speaking of 2004, I love that Dave Roberts still gets a stream of mail on that steal.
