    Now We Must BELIEVE

    Remember back in 2004. Remember when the Boston Red Sox were one year removed from the home run that rocked the Nation by Aar...I am not even going to put his name on this blog. Remember when the Red Sox were down 3-0 to the dreaded New York Yankees? Remember when Boston fans came to game 4 of the ALCS with signs that read BELIEVE?

    Only Boston fans would have the guts to bring signs to the ballpark that read Believe. Even after all of the heartache. Even after all of the tears. Boston fans still truly did Believe in their beloved Boston Red Sox. We Believed in that band of idiots to pull off the unthinkable and they did. They pulled off the biggest comeback in professional sports history, amplified by the history between the two teams. And the rest is history...until...

    THIS YEAR.

    It's time once again Red Sox Nation to BELIEVE. Break out your rally caps. Grab a Boston.com sign that reads Believe and is shameless promotion for the website and start BELIEVING in this 2010 club.

    It's not enough to just simply think, oh maybe they have a shot at getting the wild card, you really have to BELIEVE it in your gut. You can't just wear a rally cap and hold a sign...it doesn't work that way. In 2004, all of Red Sox Nation truly believed there was something special about that team. There was something in them that wanted to break the curse and when millions of fans are that certain about it, so too are the players.

    You know the players can feel it from the stands. The belief that their fans have in them to pull off the unthinkable. Now We Must Believe.

    It will take some nicely timed losses by the Tampa Bay Rays for us to pull off a nifty little comeback here at the end of the season. It will take a couple of wins on a good night for the Red Sox to pull it off, but I truly BELIEVE that they can do it. I BELIEVE that when push comes to shove, the adversity this team has faced this season will give them the strength to power through and become a force to be reckoned with in the playoffs. The Boston Red Sox are the team that NO ONE wants to face in the playoffs because we have insane starting pitching and our bats can go off on any night (hopefully they will down the stretch.)

    So, are you with me? Do you BELIEVE in the 2010 Boston Red Sox?

    Now WE MUST BELIEVE!!

    Who Cares About March Madness?

    Well the time has come, March Madness is upon us, there are a boat load of college basketball tournaments to watch this weekend, or you could watch some of the Hockey East tournament. The World Baseball Classic will be on all weekend on MLB network, don't forget that the Celtics are on Friday and Sunday and the Bruins on Saturday and Sunday, then Bracketology on ESPN on Sunday night at 6 PM.

    Although, who cares about March Madness and all this other great sports to watch this weekend? Instead you can check on-demand, netflix or go to you nearest video store and look for some of these great chick flicks to watch with your significant other, Steel Magnolias, Beaches, Pretty Woman, When Harry met Sally, Thelma and Louise, White Oleander, Gone with the Wind, An Affair to Remember or Terms of Endearment. I'm sure if you don't feel like staying in and watching movies you could go to the movies and see Confessions of a Shopaholic or He's Just Not That In To Me. I guess I don't need to do blogs on sports anymore, since it is only Wicked Pissa Dude Radio, not Wicked Pissa Sports Radio. Maybe I will start doing a fringe report on best malls to go to, or the best coffee house to get a non fat latte.


    That's it, I am getting rid of all my sports jersey's and t-shirts, turning in my membership to Red Sox Nation, getting rid of my cable box and going to just digital TV. I don't need NESN, ESPN, MLB Network, NFL Network, Versus, ESPN 2, ESPN Classic, SPEED Channel or Comcast Sports Net. I guess we will start talking about how to take care of our lawns and changing our oil on the show from now on. What am I going to do with all these pictures and sports memorabilia? I guess I need to have a yard sale. Maybe I will plant a garden this spring. I don't know what the big deal about watching sports is anyway. I mean I am on a Sports Talk Radio Podcast every week, I blog about sports at least 2 times a week, but I don't need to watch or follow them, do I? Well this is a confused Rubba Shoes Corey, keeping it real?

    Best Manny Quote EVER!!

    Manny Being Manny...gotta love it. Even though the Sox are stinking it up right now, Manny continues to entertain. After his great catch, he high fives a fan in the crowd and then pops out this gem...

    "It was fun. I love it. I think, you know, that's how you get your All-Star vote. I'm pretty sure that guy's gonna vote for me. It's one at a time, you know. Get your votes one at a time."



    You got my vote Manny!!!
