Schilling's Ding-a-lings?
House o' Payne writes in with this fab idea:
ASV started a webring of Yankee lovers. Is there a webring of Republican/conservative/hawkish Red Sox fans? There are plenty of bloggers who fit that category, including the Butchers, Son of Nixon, Allah, myself, etc. If not, someone should start it, and name it after Schilling, since he's also apparently an anti-idiotarian.
I'm all in favor of this, and we'd like to host. But we need a name: obviously, "Schilling's Ding-a-lings" is a joke. What ideas do folks have?
Also, I've been meaning for some time to start the Coalition of the Neo-Khans, with obviously Ricardo Montalban as our hero, to balance off The Eowyn Voters League. Anyone interested, drop us some TastyBits.

Not sure if anybody caught this nugget today. Cashman was on ESPN Radio today; he literally compared the series (verbatim) to Rocky Balboa v. Apollo Creed. Now, who would you associate the Yankees with in that analogy, and who ultimately beat who in Rocky II? You can't even make it up.
Posted by: A.D. at October 20, 2004 10:20 PMA Mike Timlin reference might be in order. He's the Sox righty who last year ticked off a Herald columnist by hanging a bumper sticker in his locker that showed a peace sign with the legend "the Track of the American Chicken." Here's an article about the controversy in the Weekly Standard.
Whatever the name, sign me up!

I'm up for it; your should hit up Sox Blog and New England Republican also. They'd be in on it.
I've been thinknig for some time there needs to be a New England group of bloggers like Minnesota's Northern Alliance.

Patrick asked Curt whether or not he thought ARod's mitt slap was bush-league and Schilling said, "No, it was Kerry-league."
