Krejci Craziness
I admit to turning over to the Bruins after Allen Webster lost the lead in the second inning. Whatever energy Jonny Gomes’s grand slam generated precipitously dissipated like the ozone layer in spring. David Krejci provided welcome relief for Boston sports fans with his overtime goal to defeat the Toronto Maple Leafs, giving him a hat trick and Bruins a 3-1 series lead.
Players I didn’t have a chance to make fun of last time:
- Pedro Hernandez: Peter, Ferdinand’s son.
- Ryan Pressly: Why can’t we get guys like this? (He was drafted in the eleventh round by the Red Sox in 2007, the 354th pick. The Twins picked him up in the Rule 5 draft in 2012.)
- Casey Fien: Baseball players named “Casey” should be hitters or pitchers in the National League.
- Brian Duensing: This is a pretty good “Game of Thrones” name, but of course the “i” needs to be converted into a “y.”
- Glen Perkins: There are so many more famous Perkinses than you. Carl. Anthony. Frances. You don’t know Frances? Look her up!
- Pedro Florimon: Florimon used air slash! It’s super effective! Florimon! Gotta catch ’em all!
- Oswaldo Arcia: Your name is missing a “G.”
