Red Sox Admit That WEEI Hosts Say Some Shitty Things
WEEI is where to go to hear Boston Red Sox games on the radio. It’s been that way for most years since 1995, and it will continue to be that way through 2023. Despite the partnership, the team can still acknowledge that the radio station encourages some terrible people....
Here's Why David Price Blew Up At Dennis Eckersley<em></em>
It’s been a contentious couple of months for Red Sox starter David Price, who only made his season debut on Memorial Day and has seemingly spent as much time shouting at Boston media members as actually pitching. Last month he got into it with CSNNE’s Evan Drellich over an entirely inoffensive tweet...
Red Sox Mercifully End Pablo Sandoval's Sad, Horrendous Time In Boston<em></em>
Since signing a five-year, $95 million contract with the Boston Red Sox in 2015, Pablo Sandoval has been an unqualified disaster. Sandoval played just 161 games in two and a half seasons with the Red Sox, hitting .237/.286/.360/with 14 home runs. When he wasn’t hurt or playing poorly, he struggled t...
A Field Guide To Boston Sports Radio Chowderheads
Every day, it seems, a different Boston sports radio dipshit is delivering a take from a time when segregation was acceptable, getting attention for being five seconds away from challenging a listener to a parking lot fight for Tom Brady’s honor. Although you may not pay attention to these awful stu...

There Is No Making Sense Of Matt Holliday's Bizarre Base Running Blunder
You know when you zone out at a stoplight, and then you suddenly sense traffic moving around you, and so you accelerate a little too quickly, but it turns out you don’t have a green light, it’s the turn lane next to you that has a green arrow, and so you have to stomp the brakes like a shithead, but...
Teens Discover The Boston Garden Has Ignored Law For Decades, May Owe State Millions

Pistons Take Advantage Of Danny Ainge's Bind, Get Avery Bradley

Red Sox Fan Accused Of Trying To Frame The Left With Very Lame Anti-Trump Graffiti
A Connecticut man wearing a Red Sox shirt was caught on camera defacing signs at a school playground with anti-Trump graffiti in June—but after being caught, he admitted to police he supported Trump and was trying to make the “Left” look bad....
Adrian Beltre Humbled By Incredibly Slow Pitch
Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre, whose habit of falling to one knee while batting is second only to his absolute hatred of having his head touched in a ranking of Adrian Beltre quirks, did not expect a 61-mph pitch from Red Sox reliever Fernando Abad in Wednesday’s game. The result was a powerfu...
David Price Continues His War On The Boston Media
David Price has been extra salty with reporters this year. Right off the bat, he declared that he wouldn’t be speaking to the media except on days when he starts, and then he got into a strange shouting match with CSNNE’s Evan Drellich after a game last month. Lately, it’s been more of the same....
