Fenway Park

Posted by bulldawgy on October 12, 2007 3 comments

Back in the 40′s my dad’s dad went to his first major league baseball game – in Fenway Park.  Being as my grandpa was from Georgia, this was somewhat odd – except for the fact that there was no major league baseball team anywhere near Georgia in the 1940′s.  This experience had a profound effect on his baseball following life – and he was a lifelong Red Sox fan.

I can remember watching the Red Sox with him when I was a wee tyke.  And so, I have always considered myself a Sox fan of sorts.  Tonight, by the grace of God and the elements of nature that he divinely created, I was able to go to Fenway Park for the first time.  Hopefully, not the last.

The Sox won, 10 to 3.

A Requirement Not Found in 1 Timothy 3

There is a bit of animosity between Tech and UGA fans. Not a lot, but some. Nothing however, that approaches this. Seems one dude got so upset at the Longhorn T-Shirt, that he went about grabbing the dude by the nads and pretty much castrating him. I found the following excerpt to be very interesting:

Thomas told police that when he decided to leave and went to the bar to pay his tab, Beckett grabbed him in the crotch, pulled him to the ground and wouldn’t let go, even as bar patrons tried to break it up. When the two men were separated, Thomas looked down and realized the extent of his injuries.

“He could see both of his testicles hanging on the outside of his body,” said Thomas’ attorney, Carl Hughes. “He was wearing a pair of white shorts, which made it that much worse.”…….

Beckett, a 53-year-old church deacon, federal auditor and former Army combat veteran, has pleaded not guilty.

A nad grabbing, auditing church deacon…. in a bar no less. Go figure. Thought you might enjoy the humor in this.

It’s Bulldawgy…not Yellow Jackety….

I have been encouraged by a good friend of mine, Mr. Tony Drake, to give a shout out to the Jackets for their 33-3 pasting of the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. While I hold Tony in the highest esteem as a stout, reformed theological thinker amongst the wolves who would seek to devour him in a traditional Baptist church – I find his request to be a bit out of place.

What I wish to do is call Orkin – or Allgood Services – and have the pesky bugs eliminated. But alas, in Christian love and brotherhood – I give out the following shout for the nasty, wretched, ground dwelling, flying creatures of Midtown Atlanta:

GT 69, Samford U. 14. Shout.

Oy – it’s gonna be a long year!!
