Pats win and cover. 1st half under, 2nd half over.

@Lisa: well, EYE believe that the Pats will beat the giants by quite alot... i have been taking the points and going "against" the pats the last two weeks successfully, and I will now be laying them.

]]> <![CDATA[Buckner's Awkward Re-Return To Fenway]]> Note that they didn't have Calvin Schiraldi throw out the first pitch. Probably because it would have somehow ended up in the bleachers.

Buckner's easy to forgive in comparison.

It is hackneyed at this point. There is a difference. One doesn't need a pair to state a fact. Methinks you are a little sensitive. Perhaps Mo Vaughn gave you a wedgie in kindergarten. Well I am sorry about that, but maybe its time to let it go.

When you walk through a storm
hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.
