OOOOOOOHHHHHHH I Love that dirty water..oooo ooo Boston your my Home! So say the Strandells so say all. I was born in Boston September 2, 1966 and raised there till i was 20 years old. I am proud of my roots, probably too proud. All i have to say now is Enough is Enough!
Join me below the fold to figure this one out if you dare
We From the Commonwealth of Massachusetts cling to our Guns and our Religion. Just in our case our guns are our lefty liberal politics and our religion deep to its core is Red Sox Nation. Both of these give us great pride and great disgrace. ( ex. The Yawkey era and chappiquidick )
There was a time not too long ago that we wore the label loser with great pride and honor as our beloved baseball team had not won a world series in 86 years. There was much agony we all shared in it made us who we were as people. Then came the New England Patriots, much to the chagrin of Senator Alren Spector. We were spoiled by multiple NFL championships. However spoiled this did not change us.
Then came 2004 and the world as we knew it began to unravel. Two outs, bottome of the ninth the count was 3-2 to Kevin Millar against mariano rivera of the much despised New York Yankees. Millar draws the walk and in to pinch run is the ever speedy Dave Roberts. Not having had any speed for over 30 years this was virgin territory for us. Dave roberts went on to steal second and then Bill Muellers at bat changed history. We have a joke in our house . Some times at gatherings the men in our circle of friends jest about Their LIST. This is a list of celebrities that if givven the chance to sleep with our wives would allow it. My list is as follows..1) Jennifer Love Hewitt 2) Shak Ti ( a star wars character that i wish not to explain) and 3) DAVE ROBERTS ( no i am not gay but alot of the time i list him first! I regress...
It was after the 2004 series that John Kerry claimed " Well now it's my turn" and ofcourse he lost which i feel bodes well for Obama after the sox loss to the Rays! Then again in 2007 the red sox the home town team pulled of another World Series only to be followed up by the Boston Celtics capturing their first title in 21 years. ( also after much heartbreak after the departure of the original Big Three and the tragic deaths of 2 superstar players in Len Bias and Reggie Lewis)
Sorry for going off on a tangent and i will try to make my point. We changed as a State. We became more arrrogant in our success as we were as the loveable losers. We can't keep our mouths shut to even save ourselves. Maybe some of you outsiders can fill in the blanks and describe us better than i can myself , but i don't like what i see and hear. Which brings me to Mr. Kerry and Mr. Frank!
In the case of Barney Frank, if any of you have read my previous diary or comments, you know i love the man greatly. He might even be 4th on my list ( damn maybe i am gay) The problem with Barney is he knows he is the smartest guy in the room at all times and he is. But Barney i say this now with all due respect.. shut UP! Don't be the new Boston front runner who can't keep his mouth shut, I implore you ! In the case of Senator Kerry all i can say is I am truly sorry Kossacks. We all try to be better winners from here on out or at least i will!
