Ay, Papi!

SPORTING GOODS

I'll let Surviving Grady describe just how lucky Red Sox fans are to have David Ortiz:

And another thing: Words are officially useless when it comes to describing Ortiz. Going forward, anyone wishing to describe the unstoppable awesomeness that is Papi should be forced to do so using only George Lucas-approved CGI effects, complete with spaceships, whirling planets, and plenty of 'splosions, because that's what the man is all about. As a last resort, interpretive dance is acceptable, but only if it includes a sequence in which one dancer, representing Ortiz, kicks another dancer, representing a pitcher, in the groin.

Normally, Chill and I are quite supportive of each other's teams, but for this mid-week battle it is on! On another note, I really hope that Pedro does not hear one boo when he is introduced on Wednesday. And I don't want to hear anyone try to rationalize that Johnny Damon and Pedro Martinez should get similar treatment. Pedro ruled this town, Johnny Damon was fun.
