"I can't believe Jason Varitek is not starting the All Star Game."


Ok..no Red Sox fan is thinking this. I'll give them that much. Even though Beantown is fantastically delusional and has a ridiculously over-the-top sense of entitlement....They must know that Jason Varitek sucks ballz. Right???

The fact that Jason Varitek is on the 2008 All Star squad (and not playing golf) is laughable...but so sad too. Let's look at the numbers....
.218/.300/.358/.658!!!!!!!! In 73 games he's scored 18 times, batted in 27 and has K'd 70 times in 243 at bats (29% of the time).

Jesus. WTF? This is an All Star???

Ok..in his defense, he's a nice guy, handles a young staff well and his smile lights up the clubhouse.

Secret is...this is how Yogi got into the HOF.

I can see this scenario involving the golf shoes, a la the Will Ferrel/Fred Armisen scene in anchorman:

Manny: I wan jure golp choos.
Varitek: No, these are my shoes and you don't even play golf.
Manny: Gimme jure choos.
Varitek: No
Manny: I wan jure choos NOW.
Varitek: NO. I WILL NOT GIVE YOU MY SHOES.
Manny: Gimme jure choos or i weel punching you in de face.
Varitek: NO
Manny: YES
Varitek: NO
Manny: SI
Varitek: Fine. take the shoes.
