Sixth. -- At six hot dogs in the middle like at dinner time after training table. That's a future and that began -- and half like that little Japanese guys in. -- What about coach Steve Marino label is Kosher right -- machine at Fenway Park dispenses -- grow. And set an assignment that meter had he of Dante do begrudge you a bit and ultimately its eternal one do you think he gives spot in the that you ask camera asking too. You must go find them machine and buy Kosher and report to us. These 2. It is at eight he comes in the slick sell they -- ride snapped on last night. -- My. Just felt so bad for the other guys in his yesterday the state that builds the -- Wednesday the best -- team yet it looked good they look good but boy they would drag me -- near the top of the leaderboard -- it that way -- see him looking in places looking for balls places that balls -- ago not quite to the ladies and I didn't off. Halfway goalies. They. Mean it tries you know I've only I -- final meter and I knew I was up against yesterday. A mechanical NC a -- pulled a muscle as an oblique strain."

" Stayed home actually in your -- great great. People now well it was vehicle. He was somehow got the from agreement to also lead to drive them ramble -- circles of ramble he ends up in front of the green and two. Sixty feet away. -- Forty feet past. I'm a diversity about it with less ability to gauge the ball hard in the -- than me to -- he sixty feet away. And hits the putt a hundred feet so it's forty feet past. Past knocks the forty footer and none. Yeah for Ford victory. Well yeah. Among the top that it put -- in the bottom in the hunt yeah government. Well I'll I'll use a recent treatment to wait awhile but to thank everybody who got involved. All the people paid their money to the Jimmy Fund came up to the international. Thank the international staff. Brian lynch and and ban in all of the international. The Jimmy Fund people Micah Andrews to him Barry. And rope ready group they did a great job. All the players who who covered a lot of yardage yesterday. Your new best friend Jim rice and Bob Montgomery who who who were very very helpful on the long par three -- Jim teamed up."

" I will we will like JB Holmes and boo weekly you know when it was real chemistry yeah yeah says the team didn't -- not knowledge and certainly not. As such has that sound and a -- did you use in film again now now that too I guess. Well tomorrow tomorrow bills next year of rights that you and Jimmy teamed up for a really spectacular party we did rights. It's 270 -- Victory Marbury and rice is using a three wood driver a three -- correct -- to 77 to 7277. I think it was yeah. Anyway he hits it perfectly perfectly but you know we had Duke as it was me he won one little pressure yet to impress me. To force smoked 12 I was five I'd say for I said for now. Five and did the hard partly at the and we got to -- I bet there weren't a lot of twos on the note and don't know -- and Lugar is up 30000 dollars for the Jimmy Fund that was just a little quick six week ramp up to this -- the Tigers think thirty grand. And that's our first start and -- we go it was great -- good but it was on the and the internationals has the greatest course the world I mean does the atmosphere the -- Auburn practice great practice area great clubhouse great. Because we're Russa never and the granddad yeah operate problems that food. Food was awesome awesome -- its first class all the way. Might join one joint management India. You sponsor a lecture on the response via Ottawa but recommend you I was going to -- Newman and I'm guessing he is more clout than you you think their while I'm sure about the gangs around that."

" By the way I get home and I'm just. You know I get someone to watch the White Sox game of the Pittsburgh Steelers decided to watch neither a -- on how to find an email. That came into my email box from Doc Rivers. He was supposed to play yesterday gonna join us out there but this little media day thing they have a little -- to get them from doing it and -- sends me. -- auction item that I didn't know we had last night at the option to give an extra thing -- the remarks onto his keep. It. -- do it's for tickets to a Celtics game not opening night at bank now. For tickets to a Celtics game great tickets to a game this coming year dinner at the club. In the reasonable for the game and it's slightly -- rates. If we win then I'll meet them in my office after the game I'll. If they lose public Dublin's -- with a plan that you want to play."

" That victim and the worst the complain in Memphis yes some crappy teams but you can eat dog -- TW -- and I don't really good team and risk. Lose again popping -- that I'd pick a bad team would you yeah hackers and be sure going to meet the coach yet they lose you getting us -- is gone yes that's a bad -- item. -- great obviously going to root for the Celtics anyway sure. Could you imagine how hard you'd root for them now in the league agreed to meet the coach in the walker -- yeah yeah we get to go see the players to know what to air them just walked the volume there."

" Afford tickets any game this year except for opening night dinner at the club. In the arena. And boxes if we wind and I'll meet him in my office after the game 279311850. Is the -- line. It's for the Jimmy Fund now. This is weird. Ring to it measurement he works for the Boston Globe at the same master Ruddy well -- a -- ROT guys -- about that. Hum. Betsy. That's right write for The Herald right used to yeah man it's that way and those it's it's -- beat the globe higher league. Herald writer I mean who gets the DNA on I don't think tyranny Morrissey Bullock I don't even -- Tony went -- well now. Must be good he can even spell a feat he'd just be good again it's there was. It's cage while this other Tony met Ronnie sykora I think this of the yield. Yale yeah yeah Princeton mr. -- Writes that the Boston Globe today and and in this as the ultimate. Not taking -- if you want to seize upon as usual are for ever the optimist. That this. Isn't a bad thing. That Beckett pitching in game number three or any other -- dog -- never suggest that I appear on the show I would never suggest that it's a good thing. The Josh Beckett cool little bleak -- gets bumped from game one game theory but I think you -- make the case but it's not necessarily as bad as you think it is just told him as a body. In the Boston or -- Boston Globe writes that it. Red Sox have survived this kind of thing before most notably game one of the 2004. ALC. Win -- and shelling all but collapsed in his right ankle. Morgan while the history. It's worth noting. In Josh -- 27 starts this season. The Red Sox actually had a losing record of thirteen and fourteen. Compare and contrast that behind job last year the Red Sox were 182 and eleven. And behind Daisuke. They were 23. And six Red Sox were rates donning. Combined. 45. And seventeen. When Leicester or Matsuzaka. Took the mound. And after this."

" I -- and consider this. They they win one of two in the come home 11 -- no longer Anaheim loses the -- the home home field. They'd they'd lose 21 of these. Guys who aren't who was at the ace nick a moment faced her face. Red Sox in the catbird seat you know if they split in obviously. If they lose Campbell it's Europe against apartheid either guy Leicester or Matsuzaka. Two guys who combined for 45 and seventeen record in games they started. Go out there and steal one that you come home and a fresh rested. Reasonably healthy Josh -- Wade Phillips and Joe Saunders is squeeze in a kidney stones technical. I mean it is squeeze. Is a dramatic shift -- momentum if you believe in momentum in baseball. And and what better way to have momentum in the send your best pitcher but the best postseason pitcher out there. At a home and -- and more than 1500 people show up that day you know be in Europe for the league home playoff game. -- You know look the look brilliant that looked brilliant for not Russian Beckett is 21 goes well I don't only as a matter being brilliant outing it's a matter practicality. -- a lot of sense because they thought about starting him Friday. And initially said that doesn't make sense Kuznetsov set a screen on the road and Beckett can stay."

" Home and get treatment he gets on the play and he didn't stay home or disagree with the use that and if they can steal one in Los Angeles -- look at the numbers. Individually for Lester and Matsuzaka and you look at the combine performance of the team behind those two guys the aforementioned 45 and seven team. You think it's stealing want to be the Leicester or Daisuke beats the Angels I mean don't -- sexton expressed I understand understand steal one but at my."

" I say they're the underdogs I'm sure in bowl games -- lined up guarantees that the underdogs and -- you know what that the Angels are. I assume the favorite to win all right we checked the latest odds and last and yesterday execs in the morning the way. -- good Dario. World Series this is from."

" talks written little -- no. Odds to win the 2008 Major League Baseball World Series Chicago Cubs 321 they're an easier road -- angels' Los Angeles Angels seven the two same as the Tampa bay. Rays seven to two. The fourth pick Red Sox -- one Phillies 821. Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers 921 please god don't let that happen that would net and got won't let that well he let -- and he'd yell go up there."

" Have just -- with a -- a -- expectations. There duties fall to face. Flop around. Do radio. I don't think he's going to do an A-Rod -- Italy gave Jose Canseco slash Mo Vaughn Ceres where his old for fourteen but. I don't think Doug's going to win the World Series of if you -- inning Manny cares about that. Now you know Medicare to the don't know whether it's it's a good point Manning has accomplished his goal bachelors two elevate his status in the free agent market. And earn that four year five year deal and he's already done it said the cities are going to -- the still hope for your. Your wish flesh eating bacteria viral virus -- shooting virus yeah yeah. Starting somewhere in the middle was body through the at least -- receding hairline asylum could go to get all -- time. It's time for little karma -- what we talked about the as a little bit yesterday Europe's timers that there's more than it was -- an entire article. -- two articles in the one he set them for two yes that I wrote for -- they -- from Monday right."

" And and we told you yesterday that Manny said I was unhappy for eight years in Boston but I still put up great numbers. And that tells PR Summers I brief talk about how much he hated to hear how much the lifestyle the fans the overwhelming. Restive. Wait a baseball expectations were on -- Manny Ramirez here in Boston. I'd bring my kids to Fenway. And I'd want my kids to be kids but there'd be people trying to interview them that's so stupid."

" Manny says that's a flat out lie that's a -- people for an evening view these kids. I mean maybe one time some cutesy. Lifestyle reporters. What's it like comes your favorite ice cream flavor but in many years in eight years how many times do you think how many times do you think it reporter an actual. Newspaper or TV reporter. Approached his --"

" It's at the over under as -- and I go under the odds and won it maybe once already on its just Justus. Probing was that India in any real -- honestly I'd go to the parking lot after a ball game. And twenty people I didn't know would be offering food CDs. And things. Then wanting something from me in return. Like an autograph -- here Los Angeles the game reasons I go to the elevator my car and no one bothers me. Every day I thank god I came here to Los Angeles."

" Do you think he actually said at this articulately horse. I mean PR Simons clean up on the deep here just trying to and honestly it's it's it's a cliche to. Ticklish here now on -- and leave me alone and that. In short no one's bothered him in LA while teams like the ice climbers won't give a moment's rest. Yeah."

" Rides to work regiment in the car if it -- to school every day I thank god I'm here I came here in LA. And had a chance to show people who I really am the guy UC here. That's who I am -- get this straight the guy that has been reworked read fabricated. There's a good -- read fabricated. By Scott Boras. In the last couple months of the season is the real -- for the real idea the dirt ball scumbag."

" Dog of a baseball player. Who quit his team quit his teammates and his fans. Salted. All. He may four year old and an executive. Executive -- who said nasty things about seventy plus years here was not real -- it died they can -- don't want him."

" He never belonged here anyway he he wanted to leave Cleveland but his agent known more and want to take him. One of the gimmick 200 million dollar contract and to get to. -- nobody went 200. And Dan Duquette was insisting on club options he was yeah. Because you want to get -- 200 -- and the twisted primaries. That we play in the ballpark of the team I think it's a number I want to be beaten second 200 million dollar ball player you know -- realist -- club options to get to -- to club options. You'd -- more just what that number. It's just. I mean this is the -- you don't want he did not what I the end he had not what he's option worst of baseball he he represents the worst. Of professional sports. I -- short of you know criminals like like Brett Myers yeah sort of scumbag -- who. The -- love it it. Short of just guys who cross the line but in these Atlanta all slime ball yes slam ball slime ball. But. You know guys and how they act on the team in the colon and the club -- in the field. He's the horse he represents the worst guy who doesn't care -- teammates the fans. A guy who only cares about himself and his contract and his money and in the and you have these. Useful idiots like DR Summers who make to allow him to -- Kind of the set the agenda here. And don't allow him assistant greatly and write the story and in shape is image. Maybe the fall important LA maybe the Dodgers fans of that stupid mean if you paid any attention all notes. It's just one line after another week and wish him the worst. A -- I wish in the worst -- that no problems and that no problem against the."

" Debbie let the world -- adult thinks battle you know shorted him. Fallen down -- dugout stairs do you think this guy's going to disappear in the policies no -- well he might make some errors and makes gaps on the bases."

" He'll always hit. And he'll always -- one or 22 player. And you'll never QB is the worst fielder in the in Major League Baseball according to his colleagues -- Spears. He's the worst one of the worst base runners are seen. And he is the most selfish the worst team player all the flesh eating virus is pretty much early although one opened only help. It's all kinds of things you can hope would unsettle Rio psoriasis elm disease about really bad jock -- yet jock radio address that jockey it's you know we athlete's foot --"

" There's a lot of this they'll give up hope. Hopeful is here -- alive Pope was alive 617. It's on the west coast he's on the way the and then one's -- and with him -- Is."
