Here’s another entry…

World Series update #2:

Way to go, Rockies. This group of .220 hitters showed just how pathetic the National League really is. Another great run for the Sox, though. Special congratulations to the following:
Mike Lowell: an MVP performance (.400 average, 6 runs and 4 RBI)
Jon Papelbon: clutch pitching in the two 1-run wins, including Game 4
Josh Beckett: another great outing as the number-one starter
Jacoby Ellsbury: hit .438 and won everyone in America free diarrhea
Dustin Pedroia: led off Game 1 with a homer and played very solid defense

Red Sox 4; Rockies 0

Part of me wishes Vanessa Carlton was as hot as she sounds.
Ahem.

Three comedians I really like:
George Carlin; Dennis Miller; Lewis Black

Three comedians I really don’t like:
Carlos Mencia; Margaret Cho; Roseanne

Finally, a new segment on the Rant: The Douche Bag of the Week Award. This distinction will be awarded to an individual who has demonstrated foolish, obnoxious, or otherwise unfortunate qualities over the past seven days to the extent that he or she can appropriately be labeled a douche bag.

This week’s winner: Tim McCarver
A color commentator whose absurd level of incompetence and long-windedness, combined with a total lack of command of the English language, make him truly painful to listen to on a nightly basis. Congratulations Tim, and good luck to next week's contestants.

Enough for now.
