PUBLIC MARKS with tag sox

I decided that I wanted to enter this YouTube Cybersmack contest and 2in $25,000 for creating the best internet viral video, so I decided to re-enact Game Six of the 1986 World Series in RBI Baseball, my favorite video game of all time. Game Six is one of the most surreal, unbelievable displays of sports in history, and hopefully now that the Sox have emerged victorious in the World Series, it can be seen more as an utterly stupifying comeback, and less of a devastating choke job.

The veteran second baseman is currently on waivers, according to sources, and will likely be traded or released by Wednesday. With interest in Graffanino believed to be tepid, the Sox may opt to release him by March 29, which is the deadline for teams to get rid of players with non-guaranteed contracts and be only responsible for one-quarter of the salary.

For the second straight day, the Red Sox were involved in a bench-clearing incident in a spring training game. Oh Tavaras, what a lousy-looking punch.
