Turning Red Sox Nation Into a Banana Republic

Tonight's Sox Appeal is a recrap of the mercifully concluded season. There's no word yet as to whether NESN will bring it back for a second season but given what an awful show it was, it's a virtual guarantee.

Wednesday night, NBC's Tim Russert, host of Meet the Press, will moderate a Democratic presidential debate at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire. He'll ask senators, congressmen and governors their thoughts on war, poverty, health care and terrorism. One of those people may (will) become the leader of the free world next year.

On Thurday, Tim will travel to Boston University to moderate the Red Sox Nation presidential debate. He'll ask two plagiarists, a 300 pound relief pitcher, a Hall of Fame baseball writer who completely missed the whole steroid thing, and a dog, among others, their thoughts on ticket prices, seat width and Wally.

The "debate" will air on NESN after Friday night's game. And you can bet your ass we'll be here.

Possible questions:

Mr. Gammons, can you assure us that the stress of the job wont trigger another brain injury?

So I was hanging out over at the StepChildrenOfRudyPemberton.com chat room, and the main topic of discussion was trading Julio Lugo to Arizona for Stephen Drew. That way the Drew boys will be reunited. J.D. will be juvenated like you wouldn't believe. Then they can trade Delcarmen to the Phillies for Brett Myers, just to make sure that the wife-beating equilibrium doesn't get disturbed.
What do you think?
