Miscellaneous Thoughts

Busy with a trade-show today but here are some miscellaneous thoughts....

Heard Terry Francona give his reason for not having Jason Varitek bunt on Sunday in the 10th with two on and none out. Based on his reasoning - I would have to agree with his decision and must say that I have found new respect for him for addressing the question the way that he did..... Had some down time the past couple of days and I used it to read The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown. I can't recommend this book enough. What a great page-turner. Indeed!... The success of the Bruins has made me wonder if a team has ever won the Stanley Cup with a rookie goalie and a rookie head coach (if I had to guess - maybe Montreal with Patrick Roy and Pat Burns).... A guy at the trade show was mentioning that porn usually comes out with spoofs on legit films (like Broadcast News suddenly becomes Broadcast Nudes in the porn world) and that now porn will be doing the same with reality TV. I guess there is a film out called American Porn Idol with Ron Jeremy taking the role of Simon the mean spirited judge. The idea has a ton of comedy potential.... Only in Boston would you have people still debating whether a manager should have had a player bunt in a game that happened three days ago in which the home team won... I happen to think that American Idol should replace Simon with Adam West in full Batman regalia...
