Possibly the greatest line ever.

A friend of mine has a blog/forum thingy about the Boston Red Sox (www.survivinggrady.com) and everyday it's packed with fun and crazy.

Well, as you know, my Red Sox are in the playoffs and just limping thru them (even with my lucky hat). In a best of seven series they are down 3 games to 1.

And the fun folk at Surviving Grady came up with possibly the greatest 'line' when discussing a playoff team on the ropes (but still sprinkled with optimism.)

***** "They're gonna come alive more than Frampton."****


Not everybody will think that's the greatest line ever. But I do and that's all that matters.

If you don't 'get' the line...trust me....it's great.


PS:
A short history on My Lucky Hat....I got it on September 10, 2001 and the VERY NEXT DAY I found a crisp dollar bill on the street.

    The fourth thing we can all agree on is that anybody who doesn't 'get' the reference is a Yankees fan, yes?

    (The third thing was that your hat should be burnt at the stake, of course.)

    Oh and the fifth thing was that you owe SWAC 50 cents.

    You mean...

    Like Peter Frampton, you're going to make a great noise once in a lifetime, and then never be heard from again?

    Yeah, that's about right.

    D'ya think Youk and Jeter are going to be holding each other and crying as they watch the Indians wrap the World Series in two weeks?

    Oh, and your lucky hat Sept. 10 comment may be one of the sickest things you've posted here. And I am stealing it mercilessly, and WITHOUT attribution. So how do you like them bananas?
