The Squire? (shiver) Scary. How would their amateur night be any different that a summer afternoon at Revere Beach (thongs and high heels).

I have always been curious about that place, but haven't had the courage to go in. I have a feeling the regulars in there could tell you a few things about the Susan Taraskiwicz (sp?) murder. If anyone goes or has been, please post a description. Inquiring minds want to know.


Edited because I really can't spell.

Shall we organize a Flash Mob at a strip club? I haven't been to any strip clubs in the States, only ones in Montreal, and that would give me a good excuse to go to one. But not the Squire, it's too scary.

So apparently Gordon Hayes is departing the ever shrinking THT. He's a meaningful loss for them. Who is next? What dates are y'all claimin in the dead pool?

He's got a good reputation around town and has always impressed me as someone who added something to the place.

Do I sense a bit of defensiveness here? Tell us what you know.

Spree: 3 partners leaving Testa September 12, 2 were asked to go, Gordon decided to go.

Late to the party on this one, but the Foxy Lady is well known primarily because it seems to have attracted a number of athletes who immediately get in trouble there or after leaving. Since it's near foxboro, a number of Pats players seem to be the most in trouble, but I recall some Sox players may have had a scuffle or two there.

It's boston's notorious place, like the atlanta place run by mobsters that gave freebies to out-of-town athletes.

Mo Vaughn was always getting stopped on his way back up 95.

LapDances in Boston
 

Ahh, that's right. Probably doesn't need to worry about that now . . . no games to get back for. He can stay there 24/7. Like Jabba the Hutt.

Here's a project - let's get Photoshop and morph Mo Vaughn's head onto the photo of Jabba. Shouldn't be too difficult, the neck sizes are about the same.

I didn't realize that C3PO hung out at the Foxy Lady.

Baseball in October - ahhh life is good.
 

Anyone else notice that Manny seems to be having fun out there? It's nice to see, he always seemed so dour in the past.

And what is all this "Cowboy up" stuff?

Anne
Red Sox v. Cubs - what a depressing World Series that would be.

Baseball in October - ahhh life is good.
 

Why? They can't both lose. although losing that matchup would be even worse.

Besides, the longer the Sox are alive the longer we can avoid dealing with the train wreck that is the Patriots.

[ETA:] And, if things don't go well for the Sox, Mike Hargrove is now available.

Baseball in October - ahhh life is good.
 

I think the loser of that series would be better remembered than the winner.

Kind of like The Fumble. Everyone knows that the Giants fucked up, but do they know the team who scored off The Fumble?

Baseball in October - ahhh life is good.
 

Of course: Herman Edwards of the Eagles.

And the reason people wouldn't know is that was a regular season game, no? If Buckner let the ball through his legs in the regular season, no one remembers it.

Baseball in October - ahhh life is good.
 

If we still couldn't break The Curse with that one, they might as well all go back to Little League.

P(oh, the humanity!)J

Baseball in October - ahhh life is good.
 

Ah, but think of the pathos associated with this kind of choke -- ninth inning, on the verge of clinching the series against a pathetic team, and one run up. Pathetic team somehow puts the tying run on third and the winning run on second, and a so-so hitter comes to the plate against the Sox star reliever. A wild pitch lets one score, the winning run moving to second. A little roller to first - it looks like the game!

Then the roller takes a tiny little bounce and the first baseman boots it.

Oh, wait, that's been done?

Well, there has to be a way to top it. Stay tuned.

And to think I abandoned the Mets for these clowns.

Ah, jeez. I've gotta stop rooting for the underdog. I get kicked in the ass every time.

Baseball in October - ahhh life is good.
 

Uhh, don't you mean a "little roller up along first"?

(And don't forget by that point the game was tied.)

But the Mets were hardly pathetic that year, at least objectively. 108 wins is in the top ten of all time (matched, incidentally, by the 1975 Reds).

The Sox finished the season with only 95 wins, same as this year. The Mets should have won it all that year -- what's amazing is that it took the great luck of avoiding Mike Scott in a 7th game of the NLCS and multiple breaks against the Sox in games 6 and 7 to win it.

The Amazing Mets
 

The Mets are always pathetic, no matter how good they are.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be THE all-time Cindarella team.

The Amazing Mets
 

Well, yeah. Personally I think they just suck.

The Amazing Mets
 

Yes, but they try so hard their ineptitude is rather endearing. Until it all of a sudden hits you you've wasted your life rooting for these guys and you want to toss yourself off a cliff, or at least throw some beer at them from the bleachers.

Sort of like being a Sox fan. Except they're always great until their inevitable late-season mass meltdown, which is even worse.

Edited to add, see why I've become a cycling freak?

The Amazing Mets
 

I've always wondered why there Sox fans who are Mets fans and vice versa. Could it be that misery loves company or are we united in our hatred of the Yankees?

The Amazing Mets
 

The latter. And until 1986 (well, 1985) it never presented even a potential conflict.

The Amazing Mets
 

That, and Boston: New York as Mets: Yankees. We feel their both their inferiority complex and lingering sense of injustice at being made to have one.

The Amazing Mets
 

But the bliss of 1969 is hard to forget! Yes, I was but a pup, but that one perfect moment when the undergod emerged triumphant and all was right with the world was a defining moment in my life.

The Amazing Mets
 

There was a brief time, now a long time ago, when worlds collided and everyone had to choose, but I guarantee you, in the world today Mets fans are NOT hoping the Yankees will prevail. I'll bet most are cheering Boston on.

The Amazing Mets
 

Which was my original point. There is no way a Mets fan can be a Yankees fan. As PJ said, If such an animal exists they should be examined for a multiple personality disorder.

Are all Mets and Sox fans now (for the next week at least) Twins fans?

Anne
Maybe those tricky Minnesotans will play that trick again with the air conditioning vents.

The Amazing Mets
 

Uh, Cubs? I know there can't be a conflict with them -- the baseball universe would implode first (after all, what happened in the 1919 series?)

The Amazing Mets
 

Please. My heart can't take the strain of another team like that.
Perhaps the Cubs fans could help?

The Amazing Mets
 

Seems our collective cheering helped. Twins won this afternoon 3-1.

Let's go Twins!

Twins Fans in Beantown
 

Bosox fans, rejoice. The hated Yanks just lost game 1 to the Twins, 3-1, before a disappointed sell-out Yankee Stadium crowd (and, no doubt, a steamed George, who will surely fire Joe Torre and tear the team apart if the Yanks do another first-round playoff swoon). Now, if the Twins just win their home games....

Choke time?
 

So, have they made it exciting enough yet? Will Pedro take a perfect game through nine innings only to see the game lost 1-zip on a 2 out, tenth inning home run?

Or will we again experience the ultimate Red Sox treat and witness a choke against the Yankees?
