The position doesn't really mean anything, it's just an honorific for a player who is already considered a leader in the clubhouse and on the field. I don't really care if they do it or not, it's not like anyone doesn't already acknowledge Pedroia as the "leader" among the players.
Spiders are so awesome though! I remember reading an article that said almost 85% of the spiders in the world are currently running back and forth softly on the back of your neck.
How, though? That hole doesn't look big enough to get a horse through unless it was either very carefully maneuvered, like moving a sofa up a narrow flight of stairs, or broken in half.
I'd really like to know if that's photoshopped, or if there is an interesting story behind it. I assume the horse wasn't working for the sewer service.
2003 was terrible. I remember thinking "s***. This is what I signed up for?". Luckily I didn't decide to pussy out and start rooting for another team or give up on baseball. One of my biggest regrets fan-wise is not looking for a Red Sox site to join until 2005. I wasn't really big on the internet before that. I would have loved to have been a member of TalkSox during 2004.
