He was also hyper-aware of the “national audience” that was tuning in and sensitive [...]

SHERIFF SULLY RESPONDED:
Not a lot of interest about Theo in Texas. It’s football season and well, it’s Texas and it’s football season.
I like Mazz., too, but I really don’t think he’s 40 yet. Maybe like 36.
I don’t listen to anything Schilling says. I love [...]

Well, it’s T-minus 15 minutes until the start of the Red Sox Nation Senate Hearings, also known as the Theo Farewell Press Conference. This has the strange feel of Opening Day in November, doesn’t it?

• I keep forgetting to ask: Has anyone figured out what Eddie Andelman was spouting about when he attacked Ryen Rusillo? The man has lost his mind, it’s now quite clear, and should not be allowed beyond Lynnfield’s borders. Is he that desperate for listeners that he’ll try and bury [...]
