Well, I've been in mourning all week, watching my Red Sox play terribly. I haven't been on here much, however last night they came back to win the game after being down by 7 runs.
I am tired, and I am here. Game 6 tomorrow night!
BOSTON (AP)Down seven runs and running out of time, the Boston Red Sox werent quite ready to go away.
The defending World Series champions pulled off the biggest postseason comeback since 1929, beating the Rays 8-7 Thursday night on J.D. Drews two-out single in the ninth to stave off elimination in the best-of-seven AL championship series.
Fresh off the latest October rally by the comeback kings, Boston headed to Tampa Bay trailing three games to two.
The first six innings we did nothing. They had their way with us every way possible, Red Sox manager Terry Francona said. And then this place came unglued, and weve seen that before. But because of the situation were in, it justthat was pretty magical.
Boston trailed 7-0 with two outs in the seventh, then rallied when David Ortizs three-run homer followed Dustin Pedroias RBI single against Grant Balfour. Drew hit a two-run homer in the eighth, and Coco Crisp tied it with a two-out RBI single off Dan Wheeler.
It was pretty much the most amazing thing Ive ever been a part of, Crisp said, to be down 7-0 in an elimination game and be able to come back.
TGIF!!!! I am so tired. We bought a wireless router but I can't get the darn thing up and running. Everytime it tries to check my network card the whole laptop freezes up

"Am I speaking in a language you're not getting here?"
I was dropping the boy off at school. It is parallel parking there by the school in the loading zone. A lady was stopped and her daughter was getting out of the car. I was pulling around to park in front of her to let my son out and she took off and hit the back rear corner of my van as I was coming around her.
I pulled on up and parked, and my son got out and went on insied. The lady pulled out and around me and I thought she was just going to go on around me to get out of the street and park again. She kind of pulled up beside me, looked up at me, and then took off fast.
I got out and looked at the damage and its really not bad. Its just a good scrape starting from right behind the rear wheel back and across that rear panel and the bumper. On this 14 year old van with 145k miles, its probably not worth the deductible to get it fixed.
As I was looking at it, another mom pulled up beside me and said "I saw her hit you. I know the girl's first name, but can't think of her last name" . . . and she gave me the name.
Since I probably won't fix it, I was thinking I'd just go too since I won't do anything about it, but then it hit me . . . . What if she calls the police later and says I'm the one that hit her and left? So, I called the police and they came and took the report. I gave them the girl's first name (a Korean girl and the only one in the school that I know of), and the witness' name.
I really didn't want to get the lady in trouble, but figured I better cover my own butt.
Game 6 tomorrow night!
Not much going on at the moment.
