And those of the players. Aw, nuts, how can you criticize somebody with the testicular fortitude to ask players about ball-smashing balls?

This isn't normal? And all this time I thought Mrs. Flackwell was just being dramatic...

Today's Soxaholix deals with the same subject as well as the "lack of offense" meme regarding this year's lineup...that doesn't seem to be as valid as people think.

I also posted an imagined conversation between Mike Lowell and Shaughnessy regarding "balls"...in styled parody of Glengarry Glen Ross...in the Soxaholix comments today.

Piece of genius, Kaz.

(SHAUGHNESSY goes to grab a cup of coffee)

LOWELL:
Put. That coffee. Down.
Coffee is for closers.

(PAPELBON enters)

PAPELBON:
Thanks, Mike. Hey, Dan.

Nice one and thanks. I was thinking about how to work Papelbon and the "A.B.C. - A, Always. B, Be. C, Closing." into it, but the monologue is so long I just cut to the part about brass balls. :)
