About me


I'm Brendan Loy, a 26-year-old graduate of USC and Notre Dame now living and working in Knoxville, Tennessee. My wife Becky and I are brand-new parents of a beautiful baby girl, born on New Year's Eve.

I'm a big-time sports fan, a politics, media & law junkie, an astronomy buff, a weather nerd, an Apple aficionado, a Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter fanatic, and an all-around dork. My blog is best-known for its coverage of Hurricane Katrina, but I blog about anything and everything that interests me.

Do or die

GO SOX!!!

Liveblog here.

P.S. Some people are watching, and liveblogging, the GOP debate instead. I'll stick to baseball.

UPDATE: ARRRGH!!! Stupid double plays!!!

UPDATE 2: It's the bottom of the sixth, and the Red Sox are clinging to a tenuous 3-2 lead. They led 3-0, and it could have been much more than that, but they couldn't take advantage of all their early hits. I don't have a terribly good feeling about how this will end, but I'm trying to keep the faith here. So, again I say, GO SOX!!!

... NOTE: I had a bunch of updates here, as the Sox dodged a bullet in the seventh, then took a big lead in the eighth and ninth... but then I accidentally deleted all those updates. D'oh! ...

FINAL UPDATE: The Red Sox win the pennant!!!! On a fantastic catch by defensive replacement Coco Crisp!! YEEEEEAAAHHH!!!!!!!!

Dammit, I somehow deleted a bunch of my updates... trying to retrieve them now...

Someone please explain why Blake is too good to bunt Lofton home. A hit and run at least? The Indians went from tying the game to finished on a double play in that pathetic moment. I guess I have just been spoiled by Mike Scioscia.

Andrew, do we have Angels fandom in common?

Andrew, do we have Angels fandom in common?

It appears we do.

Spoiled by Scioscia? That guy runs into more outs than any manager in the league. Also, the Angels have been pretty awful in the playoffs since that magical bullpen season in 2002.
