Field Of Bad Dreams

More than a week after he was skipped in the rotation The Texas Tantrum had the opportunity to shut Butchie Me and the rest of the world up last night when he took the mound against the formidable Cleveland Indians. Did he come out six shooters blazing mowing down a lineup cast offs and quadruple A players to get his point across, did he paint corners and toss BB’s befuddling a team that starts one player with a season average north of 300 ? no he came out the pouty little brat he has been since the dime was dropped on him after last seasons melt down. And what did that get him and us ? two and a third innings of whiny baby on the mound. What did it get the team ? Another huge hole to try and dig out of. Seven earned runs on seven hits two more round trippers and a trip to the showers. Opportunity lost? Not if you’re Josh Beckett, he will just show us who’s boss at his presser.  No the Golf had nothing to do with it no he doesn’t see why it’s a big deal no he has no regrets its my off day ill do what I want, blah blah blah,. If September didn’t show us the first month of this season has, Josh Beckett just doesn’t care. He’s pitched for his last contract he has his rings and has packed it in.

 We are Red Sox fans we are used to being disappointed we are used to things not going as planed. What we aren’t used to are players and a team that doesn’t care as much as we do. And that’s what it looks like we are stuck with
