Following every Red Sox game this season I’ll be writing a short reaction to the previous day’s action while trying to avoid the inevitable roller coaster of emotions found in any true New England sports fan.
Dating back to the start of the Red Sox as we know it in 1901, the Red Sox have had 46 managers. What that means is that the Red Sox change managers roughly every 2.5 years. By that way of thinking, Farrell actually doubled the average tenure with his seemingly short 5 year tenure.
By Aaron Jackson To celebrate Halloween, let’s take a look at five different stories and athletes in the sports world and try to figure out, are they tricks, or are they treats? I will make the case for both, then let you decide. Al Horford Treat: This guy is a stud! Won […]
What a roller coaster weekend it was. The Red Sox were in the playoffs and then exited stage left, Tom Brady returned to quarterbacking the Patriots and we said goodbye to David Ortiz.

NFL Training Camp is underway, the Red Sox are heading to the West Coast for an 11-game road trip and then there’s that matter of the Summer Olympics. On Thursday, we welcomed in Eric Frede and Trenni Kusnierek from Comcast Sports Net New England to […]
John Farrell has had a roller coaster season. During Spring Training the hot topic was how long the leash was going to be after 2 straight years in the cellar.
