Hey now! I trust everyone has recovered from last fall’s unexpectedly sudden end to what we all thought was going to be the Red Sox’s epic 2016 postseason run? Of course you have. After all, we did get a couple of pretty sweet consolation prizes.
2016 ALDS Game 3: OMFG WTF just happened??
Me last night:
No, really: That’s it? That’s how it ends? That’s how the 2016 Red Sox go down? That’s how Big Papi’s career comes to a close?
Ooof. I can’t even look at that picture without looking like that picture.
2016 ALDS Game 2: No, seriously … WTF just happened…?
This is when you know EVERYTHING is going wrong. EVERYTHING.
2016 ALDS Game 1: WTF just happened…?
That horrified scream you heard when our ace gave up his third home run of the inning last night? Yeah, that was me.
Let it begin!
There is nothing with which I have had less direct involvement than the Red Sox making it into the postseason … and there is nothing with which I will have less direct involvement than their performance in the postseason … and yet, every time they get to play October baseball, I am more excited than a grown man should ever be about something with which he is not directly involved … let alone something for which he will be fully clothed.
