I’m really glad to have been directed to this blog, too. Nice work, Rob.

And, for those looking for a really funny Sox blog, I have to recommend “Jose Melendez’s Keys to the Game.” It’s witty, erudite, and good-hearted, all things that that hateful crap at BDD isn’t.

BDD is by no means a resource for sox fans. It is a non-readable cyber trash rag that just needs to go away. There are SO many better sox blogs out there that your readers should be aware of. My favorite is Survivinggrady.com. By far the funniest and best put together sox blog out there, SG is also a gathering place for many intelligent and passionate sox fans. Thanks for listening.</p> Great blog Rob, really enjoying it and enjoy hearing your occasional appearances od WEEI.

3- he is not respected, not liked in the globe building where he shows up once in ahwhile.

4- I agree with the racist comments above.

many good blogs listed above and there are many more. my rule for blogs:

limit blog reading to one cup of coffee, otherwise you’ll be there all day.
