Jake Peavy is My Hero
(Source) “Life as a World Series champ is just ducky for Jake Peavy.
The Red Sox pitcher enjoyed his tour of Boston on one of the city’s famed Duck Boats so much that he bought the amphibious auto right on the spot on Saturday.
“We did three Patriots (parades), three Red Sox, one Bruins and one Celtics and this is the first time it’s happened,” Cindy Brown, a spokesperson for Boston Duck Tours told the Daily News. “It’s very surprising but it sounds like, given his personality, it’s within him to do something like that and make purchases that are kind of spontaneous.”
Peavy, 32, made news earlier in the season for another unplanned purchase when he bought a cigar store Indian during a trip to San Francisco.
“We went out to San Francisco, and things were just kind of, it wasn’t that same attitude and the travel had kind of worn us down,” Peavy told Boston.com of the decision to buy the figurine. “I was walking to the field on the day of my start and walked past a smoke shop, a tobacco/liquor store. And I’m Indian, my heritage is American Indian. And I walked by and saw just in the glass window this fellow looking at me.”
Mike Napoli might have had the best parade day, but Jake Peavy was a close second. Buying the same duck boat that took you around Boston to celebrate a world series title that you just won is a championship caliber move. Maybe not the most practical move but whenever you can get your hands on a vehicle that can drive on pavement and float in water you have to do it. If Boston wins the championship next year Peavy might just buy the entire city a tin of Skoal. Is it April yet?

Stephen Drew Needed Glasses The Entire Season, Gets Them Game 6 Of The World Series
Heading into Game 6 of the World Series, Red Sox shortstop Stephen Drew was mired in a 4-for-50 postseason slump at the plate.
Drew had struck out 19 times.
While Drew probably heard the cries from fans critical as to why he was still in the lineup, he was actually unable to see them.
Apparently, Stephen Drew needs glasses.
According to Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com, Drew paid a visit to the eye doctor before Wednesday night’s Game 6 World Series clincher. Drew was fitted for contact lenses and coincidentally began making contact. Drew went 2 for 4 and hit a key home run that stretched Boston’s lead to 4-0.
Of course Boston won the game and the Series and Stephen Drew saw it all. Clearly.

Classic story. Star infielder can’t see, goes the whole season without glasses, and goes 4-50 in the post season with 19 strikeouts. Then, he gets contact lenses before game 6 of The World Series, smokes a home run, and goes 2-4.
Where have I seen a story like this before? Oh yeah….
Wild Thing was a slouch before those world famous spectacles.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s Underwear Campaign is Getting Off to a Roaring Start
First there was the tweet about how much of a pleasure Ronaldo had looking at all the photos of boys In their underwear, and now there’s this picture that was taken at a CR7 presser.
As if this picture isn’t haunting enough, Ronaldo chose an interesting place to put his hand. Nothing like a little dick touching to end a press conference.

Granny Has Some Serious Rage Issues
Right off that bat I would like to say how underutilized “Wanker” is as an insult. So degrading, especially with an accent. Secondly, how crazy is this old broad? Certifiably crazy, and I like every second of it. All you need is a little GTA V to unleash all that anger you had bottled up for 96 years.

America Can Rest Easy Tonight: The “Dine and Dasher” Has Finally Been Caught
(Source) “The Baltimore man dubbed the “Dine and Dasher” by police is at it again, authorities and restaurant owners say.
Andrew Palmer, 46, notorious for racking up food and drink tabs at area restaurants, then faking seizures to get out of paying the bill, was arrested early Monday after owners said he refused to pay a $50 bill at Viccino Jay’s Italian Gourmet on Charles Street.
The night before, he went limp at upscale barbecue restaurant Oliver Speck’s in Harbor East when it was time to settle up on a $90 tab, according to the owner and a patron.
“The paramedics showed up and said, ‘Looks like our guy’s back,'” said Oliver Speck’s chef Jesse Sandlin. “He would not wake up, and they were like, ‘Come on Andy, stop faking.'”
Police say Palmer, who has a career rap sheet more than 90 arrests long and has been found guilty of petty theft at least eight times in the past year, is making the rounds again.
He’s being held at Central Booking in lieu of $1,500 bail. His most recent public defender did not return a message seeking comment. Court records list Palmer as homeless or at an address on South Broadway that no longer exists.”
Phew. Just when it looks like society is about to crumble and law enforcement seems overmatched by the criminal underworlds, we get a story like this to give us hope. One of the most dangerous men in history has been apprehended. Andrew Palmer has been causing chaos in the restaurant world for too long. Ruining the lives of waiters and waitresses alike. One quick glance at his mugshot and you just know you’re looking into the face of pure evil. No longer will a homeless man who fakes seizures to avoid paying his tab get away with it. Andrew Palmer, the hands of justice are swift and severe. I for one will sleep a little better tonight knowing this deviant is finally off the streets.
