First off I want to say that I think this whole idea is a great one. For a long time I wished I could have worked around sports (I am only 19 so hey, it could happen still!) and for all the other people out there who have the same dream as me this is such a great place to go. I am not going to be blogging as to get the popularity and seriousness of trying to 'win' the 'competition.' I am just going to give my honest opinions on what decisions have been made, should be made and anything else I see fit to post about my beloved Red Sox, and perhaps Patriots and Bruins too. I am not much of a basketball fan but the other three are my favorites. Whoever may end up reading my blog I hope realizes that this is not a "report the facts that can be found anywhere else" type blog. This is a "I hope the Red Sox bring in Mike Piazza as a first baseman / Tim Wakefield's specialty catcher" type blog (which is something I actually feel by the way). I don't have the time or energy to find a spot or place where WEEI gets reception and they are in the middle of the show for me to call into to give my little blurbs of info.

I have my own blog on my website dedicated to the Red Sox. It is on my own website (yes, I designed it, made it and payed for it and everything all by myself), and can be found at www.jimmays.net/redsox.php. I will try to keep all my thoughts and comments to this blog but I fear due to lack of movement transactions-wise I will have to be creative as to how I will update my blog. The underlying theme of my whole mission statement is that I DO NOT WANT TO BE A POSER. I am NOT here to scrounge around for information and then basically repost it. I will leave all that stuff for ESPN.com (or FoxSports.com). In the end this will be all my own. If this were to mirror anything, I would suggest it resembles Steven King's book about the Red Sox during the '04 world series year. Just a day-by-day account of New England Sports through my mind. On that note - happy blogging!
