Jonathan Papelbon Hopefully Ruined Craig Sager's Orange Suit In Red Sox Celebration
Paps Provides Another Reason To Make It Hard To Hate Him


I admittedly didn't watch any of yesterday's playoff baseball action. I'm, uh, shall we say, waiting for next year. So I missed that supposedly controversial Jason Varitek fumble which has somehow gone unmentioned in these parts, but the good news is that I wasn't subjected to Craig Sager's bright orange suit all night.

Yes, a bright orange pumpkin suit.

I wish Sager would have been in attendance last week in Wrigley, for his outfit could have been a reasonable excuse. It didn't bother the Boston Red Sox Monday night, and Jonathan Papelbon and crew partied in style. Most notably, Paps did what I think everyone would wanted to do: trash Sager's jacket with champagne.

Mission accomplished. Hopefully.

Jonathan Papelbon turns Craig Sager's pumpkin suit into fizzy goodness

Yeah i have to be honest here. There was pretty much no controversy in my mind either. Nor does there seem to be much talk over the internet today about it. It definitely seemed to be the right call.

    I love Papelbon.  He is the picture of seriousness on the mound, but after it's all over, he is as funny of athlete as you can find!!!

I just know that this will somehow be blamed on AJ Pierzynski.

Papelbon cracks me up.  He's always there to do his job when it matters, but as soon as the game is over he's like a kid again.  I can't help but like the guy for that.

Of course. It's his fault. I just wish more politicians would get a clue, and realize that the economy is his fault as well.

Alright I will give you that, however he did not start World War I, shoot J.R., or take the Lindbergh baby.
