"We're going to bring our gold, our jewel in there, which is A-Rod. We're going to see how the chips fall this time. That's our man and we know he's our man. We're going to look out for him when he's in a situation like that (referring to Varitek incident).

Skip Bayliss has his doubts:
I don't doubt Schilling was so hurt he shouldn't have been pitching in the ALCS. But I'll always believe that was fake blood on his sock. Come on, the spot didn't get bigger or browner, as it should have as he pitched deeper into the game. It stayed the same ketchup-blot size.-Bayliss

Canada Day Celebration
Don Hyslop 7/1/2005
Well our Nation's 138
birthday celebrations have come to an end in Hantsport, Nova Scotia. Early this
morning I got into my car and drove the 50 minutes or so to get to where this
parade was to take place. Upon arrival, I was treated royally by the person who
had initiated this plan to put Red Sox fans from across the province on a float
to commemorate the Red Sox World Series victory as well as Canada's birthday. He
offered cool refreshments to all of us to put us in the mood for this event.
Soon upwards to 20 noted Red Sox fans from all over Nova Scotia had arrived and
we made our way to the parade's starting point.
