Oh, 1997. Back when we thought murdering Vince Foster was the worst our government could do. Back when we could watch both Mad About You and Caroline in the City. Back when the Red Sox were so mediocre and uninteresting that over-the-jorts horndoggery could occur in a half-empty Fenway Park. These were the lean years of Darren Bragg, of Troy O'Leary, of John Valentin, after all, so why not get frisky? More »

Because no one reads the newspaper, and SportsCenter's anchors are too perky for this early in the morning, Deadspin combs the best of the broadsheets and internets to bring you everything you need to know to start your day. More »

A drunk, underage woman couldn't — or wouldn't — make it to the bathrooms at Fenway last night. This is her story. More »

Bostonians! Tomorrow night, Thursday, I will be talking and signing copies of Are We Winning in your fine city. I'll be at the BU Barnes and Noble, the one right by Fenway. We'll be drinking afterward as well. Come! More »

Scalpers, by definition, resell tickets at multiples of face value. Boston scalpers, perhaps having failed math, have marked up ostensibly free tickets by some magic factor that turns zero dollars into: lots of money. More »

This is a weekly feature in which I (and maybe you, too, readers) detail the various reasons for hating your ballpark. This week: The Boston Red Sox's Fenway Park. More »

Bruins officially announce that they will host the Flyers in Fenway Park for next year's Winter Classic, but they'll really have to fling it to get a puck over the Green Monster. [Herald] More »

Do you want presumably good seats to a Red Sox game at Fenway? All you have to do is convince the son of a failed presidential candidate that you hate socialism—and maybe make a small donation! More »

Sources say the Boston Bruins will host next year's Winter Classic at Fenway Park. If someone doesn't get checked into the Green Monster, I'll want my money back. [Puck Daddy] More »

We know that Bostonians take a lot of heat around these parts — or pretty much anywhere in the world of sport these days — and we suspect they can take it; multiple championships will serve as balm to just about any wound. (Other, than, you know, maybe a gunshot.) But we're gonna compliment them anyway; everyone we and our parents met at Fenway Park this weekend were friendly and welcoming. And that's not easy to do when one's team is down 8-0 after two innings. More »

As mentioned last week, the Leitch family is heading to Fenway Park this Saturday — tentative pitching matchup: Josh Beckett vs. Mitchell Boggs. You're toast, Sox! — and we are hopeful that the Yawkey Way faithful will show us the appropriate respect. That is to say: We hope they won't throw anything heavy at us. If the Celtics can win either one of these two home games this week, we have to think they'll be in a good enough mood, right? Right? More »

The Leitch family is heading to the East Coast next weekend to make their first visit to the city of Boston; it is just our good luck that the once-every-five-years trip to Fenway happens to coincide with injuries to the Cardinals' two best players. (Not that we're not winning nevertheless, mind you.) But we're gonna have to make sure Mom, an emergency room nurse notoriously paranoid about germs, doesn't touch the food. More »

It may seem as if I'm writing this post under the influence of peyote, and believe me, I'm not above trying that. But in this case I'm sober and it's all true: A girl who was part of a school group touring Fenway Park on Thursday was attacked by a red-tailed hawk, who delivered a decisive hawk beat-down on the youngster before returning to its nest in the upper deck. And what was the victim's name? (Drumroll) ... Alexa Rodriguez. More »

A reader, digging through some of their dad's old things, found a relic from the mid-80s that couldn't be more dated than if it showed a picture of Flock of Seagulls. More »

Say what you will about the sometimes unhealthy hold that the Boston Red Sox have on their fans ... but the picture above looks really, really fun. More »

Last night, Fenway Park came alive once again, in that weird, psychotic way that only Fenway Park can come alive. Even though it turned out to be the King Felix show, it still had the feel of a historic night ... well, for April, anyway. More »

All this talk about Amazon reader reviews got us to remembering one of our favorite ESPN.com snafus: Rob Neyer's infamous angry Amazon review. If you've forgotten, or if you never knew, Neyer — whose uncomfortably confessional book Feeding The Green Monster proved once and for all that stat guys shouldn't write about trying to meet girls — once wrote a review of Steve Kettman's One Day At Fenway that contained the line, "How did this project go so terribly wrong? Presumably the author wound up with plenty of source material, and so I can only assume that he lacked either the talent or the time (or both) to shape the material into a decent piece of non-fiction."
