I miss Millar

This video is mesmerizing:


I know he's not a great 1st baseman - and I certainly WAY prefer Youks at that position. Still, I miss Kevin Millar's clubhouse presence. He's the best cheerleader any team could have. Watching Manny give it to him last night after his awesome catch brought back such memories!

And that Adam Loewen - playing the keyboards on that clip - looks like he's having way too much fun!

Big Game tonight!

"Kind of the motto in the clubhouse right now is, 'It's better to die on your feet than live on your knees.'" --Josh Beckett

So tonight is Game 6 of the American League Champtionship series. So many incredible story lines - you've got Curt Schilling pitching another key game 6. How can we forget the bloody sock of 2004? That was a game 6 too. Schilling will be a free agent at the end of the season - this could be his last game in a Red Sox uniform. Same for Mikey Lowell - I sure hope we haven't seen the last of him at Fenway. They're bringing in Bill Mueller to throw out the first pitch - he got the hit that scored Dave Roberts to tie the Yankees in that game 6. And Lucchino has asked all the fans to wear red to the game tonight - we don't need no stinkin' rally towels!


And for further motivation, here's Kevin Millar's words of wisdom from before Game 5:


Go Red Sox!!!
