It's been quite a week for the Red Sox generally, and David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez in particular. But no one has really dominated our consciousness over the past ten days, from AL East clinch to ALDS clinch, like Jonathan Robert Papelbon, fast becoming my first undisputed #1 favorite Red Sox since Nomar led those hateful teams in the early 20-Aughts.
Below, submitted without comment (since none could do Paps' genius justice), a short multimedia retrospective, in reverse chronological order....
To finish your beer in one gulp. Two of us were in Houston for the Super Bowl surrounded by fellow Massholes, and at a bar near Rice we overheard a snippet of conversation at the table next to us. "Hey," one Pats fan said to the other, "Worcester tango that shit so we can leave." We'd never heard the expression before, but we loved it, and have now co-opted it. Cuz that's how we dance in Worcester - finish your beer so we can get out of here.
