Pedro says Red Sox can keep the ring Pedro's sick and tired of being portrayed as a villan in Beantown: "I did my job. I think I did that all seven years I was there. Everyone seems to have forgotten about that. A lot of the fans probably remember, but they're selling me as a negative. I'm not saying all the fans. But some have forgotten."

Original story that's being blown out of proportion by a wonderful headline. Did he say they could keep the ring? Yes. Did he mean he doesn't want it? No:

"If they want to keep the (World Series) ring, that's fine . . . I just know I contributed to that team to win, and I'm proud of it. They can never erase what I did in Boston. Most important, I had a job in Boston for seven years, and I appreciate that. And that's the most important thing. I had a job, and I did what I had to do in my job. Every time I could pitch, I did. Hurting, or not hurting."

Could this be another case of "sound bite" reporting???????

Original story that's being blown out of proportion by a wonderful headline. Nail on the head.

Worst trip to the doctor's I ever had.

Whoever wrote that headline on the MSNBC story should learn the word A-C-C-U-R-A-C-Y.

Yerfatma, indeed, hit the nail on the head. In more, uh, positive news, Derek Lowe, and possibly Dave Roberts, will be coming back Monday for Opening Day to receive their rings. Good stuff. Be nice to have them there.
