A wave of good feeling that the Red Sox haven't given me since about April. It was the sight of Tom Brady throwing the football on the field of Lincoln Financial Stadium. He was back in uniform for the first time "The Hit", and suddenly I could move on from Super Bowl 42. I know what you're thinking, this is either just a stale column idea or this guy is really overreacting,http://whitehatsports.blogspot.com/2009/08/im-all-healed-up.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (White Hat Sports)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-915260251793202285.post-7261794032191160883Sat, 01 Aug 2009 15:14:00 +00002009-08-01T11:35:42.722-04:00Memories you can't forget.I know I haven't posted here in a while, but I just turned on my tv to the 1999 Home Run Derby at Fenway, and as I watch Jeromy Burnitz hit in the first round it has given me inspiration.When Manny Ramirez was suspended for 50 games this season I was shocked. He's The Natural, the goofy guy that has all the talent in the world and wouldn't know what a steroid was if his life depended on it.

I have an exceptional memory, so I remember a few things from when I was just a bit younger: like the time Timmy walked out of the bathroom at preschool with his pants down, which is an unfortunate thing to remember. I was born in 1985, so the first things about sports that I remember are Super Bowl XXVI and the http://whitehatsports.blogspot.com/2009/07/how-am-i-baseball-fan.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (White Hat Sports)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-915260251793202285.post-7010799676952928579Wed, 22 Jul 2009 23:15:00 +00002009-07-22T19:39:37.981-04:00Business is about to pick upThat's right, when things are weird with the Red Sox, as they are right now, Good Ole JR sums it up best. The Red Sox have lost 4 straight games, matching their longest such streak of the season and to top it all off the team made two trades. The first acquiring Adam Laroche for two minor leaguers who were destined to be trade chips. The second the Red Sox, in the most inexplicable Cardinals movehttp://whitehatsports.blogspot.com/2009/07/business-is-about-to-pick-up.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (White Hat Sports)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-915260251793202285.post-3996459357110738151Tue, 07 Jul 2009 03:09:00 +00002009-07-06T23:47:00.509-04:00Lob Shots For The 4thThe United States blast off fireworks to celebrate the 4th of July, in England they have Wimbledon.

In case you were wondering about my Black Book draft post, I’m waiting till after July 8th, when I expect a few more trades to pop up.Thought # 1: I loved the Shaq trade…If it happened 2 years ago when he was still with the Heat. Now? It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

Which I love and I hate. I'll explain. I first fell into a disfunctional relationship with ESPN Classic when my parents got Prime Star (a satillite company now defunct) and was introduced to the third ESPN channel in my life, this was late 1996.

I watch every game and the ones I don't want I almost enjoy more because I get to listen to Joe Castiglione. I grew up in a family that every weekend, from mid-May to early October, went to camp. This wasn't the kind of camp that a lot of my friends went to. We had no electricity or running water, but it never seemed that rural to me. We had gas lamps, and hadhttp://whitehatsports.blogspot.com/2009/06/remy-replacement-rankings.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (White Hat Sports)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-915260251793202285.post-6705375163549574715Sat, 30 May 2009 03:06:00 +00002009-05-29T23:27:29.514-04:00Lebron, if you're listening, it's me, Aaron.The Cleveland Cavaliers will not win their series against the Orlando Magic, and here's why...Lebron James.I get that Lebron is putting up terrific numbers, there is no denying that. But basketball is a game of flows, and right now Lebron is killing the Cavs flow.

You like it. So what's the deal, the Red Sox (27-20)? They are 7 games over .500 as I write this, yet they trail a kid named Anthony Swarzak in his first start. Beckett is truly dealing, aside from that bomb that Joe Creded touched off in the second, that if this game wasn't being played in a dome, would have reached Duluth.

The Captain hit two homers, Brad Penny had his best outing as a member of the Red Sox, and David Ortiz went bridge (Eck's word for a homer, I LIKE IT!) for the first time this year. Ortiz gave a curtain call, Penny didn't and Varitek kept his head down, and went into the dugout like he always does.

Just days ago things were going great for the Boston sports fan. The Bruins, down 3-1 in their series with the Hurricanes, began to show why they were one of the two best teams in the NHL all year.
