Thursday January 31, 2002

No Big Deal

Bitchette, O'Leary, and Valentin signings are minor at best.


Wednesday January 30, 2002

That's the Ticket

Prices to rise for best seats in the house.


Tuesday, January 29, 2002

Pokey the Pirate

Reese out. Steel curtain infielder goes to Pittsburgh.


Monday January 28, 2002

Bledsoe Closes Curtain but it's Brady in the Bayou.

Tom has a leg up on Drew and will lead Patriots Sunday.


Sunday January 27, 2002

Steel Curtain is Brady's Brunch

Tom will come up big in Pittsburgh today.


Saturday January 26, 2002

Roughs in the Diamond

Non-roster invitees to get their chance in March. Will any of them be coming north in April?


Friday January 25, 2002

Ted Fouls One Off

Splendid Splinter lands in hospital, but reports of his striking out are greatly exaggerated.


Thursday January 24, 2002

Pirated by Pittsburgh

Avila gets away from Sox. Can Boston still win a World Series without the Florida assistant GM?


Wednesday January 23, 2002

Garces Wants Second Helping

Can Sox digest a large contract for El Guapo? Lucchino to chew on it first, might be too much for him to swallow.


Tuesday January 22, 2002

What's in a name?

Dan Duquette's cousin on Lucchino's short list. Are Jim's chances of landing the GM job slim?


Monday January 21, 2002

Change is in the Air

Duquette is stepping down, but may not be totally out.


Saturday January 19, Sunday January 20, 2002

Saturday Night's Alright for Football

Snow Dogs bury Choakland tonight.


Friday January 18, 2002

Duke Packs Up Desk

No longer if, but when.


Thursday January 17, 2002

There's a New Sheriff in Town

Lucky Lucchino takes the reigns today as new owners group rises from Phoenix.
Happy days are here again.


Wednesday January 16, 2002

White Smoke Wednesday

Look for Henry-Werner-Lucchino to get owner approval today. Roadblock Reilly could still take action before final closing. Dolan may also delay the process.


Tuesday January 15, 2002

Charles in Charge?

Dolan continues to mess with the sales process. Daddy Megabucks throws in another $50 million. Will Harrington get the Trust boot? Will Henry have to fund Reilly's charity campaign?


Monday January 14, 2002

"Enough is Enough"

Harrington, Partners accept Henry bid. Will sale get derailed again before Phoenix? Or will we see the white smoke on Wednesday?


Sunday January 13, 2002

Whole New Ballgame?

Selig, Reilly to speak about The Sale today. Statement from Harrington and limited partners on reopening bids expected tomorrow.


Saturday January 12, 2002

Dolan Not Done

Just when you thought it was safe to get ready for Spring, Daddy Megabucks brings more dollars to the table. Will this spell doom for our dynamic trio of Henry, Werner, Lucchino? No. They pass with flying colors next week.


Friday January 11, 2002

Dan's Last Supper

He served up his seasonal side dish again: "We spent more days in first place than any year since '95." Stick a fork in him. He's done.


Thursday January 10, 2002

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?

Pokey? Stanley? Boston Baseball Writer's Dinner at Sheraton tonight.


Wednesday January 9, 2002

Ishii Outie

Sox won't make Sang mistake twice.


Tuesday January 8, 2002

Is Rice cooked? Will El Tiante get smoked?

Hall of Fame selections will be announced today


Monday January 7, 2002

John Henry puts the Hammer Down.

Will stop losing bidders from blocking the owner vote.


Sunday January 6, 2002

Time to salute the Patriots.

Playing second fiddle to the Red Sox-sale-soap-opera,
Turf Dogs get their due, go for the bye today.


(Note: Like the gap in Nixon's (Richard not Trot) tapes, the December 1st - January 5th headlines are missing. I deleted them by mistake).

I'm Just Wild About Larry.

Head workdog Lucchino "plays to win." Vows to bring passion, vision, and fun back to the fabled franchise.


Saturday, December 22, 2001

Heerrree's Johnny! And John.

Christmas comes early as Sox find their new leadoff man in Dirt Dog Damon. John Henry says "give us a chance, we'll make you proud."


 Friday, December 21, 2001

Henry-Winner!

Knock down, drag out sale ends with unanimous decision for Henry-Werner. Lucchino to run the show. Duquette will surely go. Don't know about Joe. And will Katie kick in some 'Today Show' dough?


Thursday, December 20, 2001

Oh Henry-O'Donnell!

Done deal, Dolan done. Newly merged group gets nod from Harrington, Partners. Duke does the Hokey Pokey, turns himself around, heads upstairs. It's Lucchino's team now.


Monday, December 17, 2001

Harrington's Last Hurrah.

Absolutely, positively final offers due today. Low bidders officially drop out. Henry-Werner-Lucchino pick up steam. Who will have the Olde Towne Team under their tree on Christmas Day?


 Saturday, December 8, 2001

Charles in Charge.

Dolan ups the ante by offering to buy out limited partners as well.
Gives Sox two days to cash the $700m check. But will Harrington, Baseball
let him into the club?


 Thursday, December 6, 2001

See You Later Alligator.

John Henry free to sell Florida, open wallet for Werner. Can he bring a couple of players too?


Wednesday, December 5, 2001

Is "the Fix In"... to Throw Werner Out?

Werner-Otten-Lucchino get slammed for San Diego sins, short pockets, connections to Selig. Can Harrington steer their ship through the rough waters ahead? Will there be an announcement soon?


 Tuesday, December 4, 2001

Dolan for Dollars.

Cablevision chief's bid reportedly tops $400 million. Enough to eat Everett's contract?


Sunday, December 2, 2001

Is the Tail Wagging the Dog?

 TV dinner is the main course for new owners. NESN is the diamond in Sox rough sale.


 Saturday, December 1, 2001

Miles to Go Before We Sleep?

 Herald makes Miles Prentice the "frontrunner" and calls race wide open.
Globe says Quadrangle wants to get in Kenmore Square.
