Persistence = Hall of Famer

by MatthewRI on May 10, 2008 3:22 PM EDT

I took my 2 year old out today and picked up a Jonathan Papelbon poster and we put it up in his room.

Every hero has his low points. Paps has now felt the pinch of his.

Now, in the next few weeks, I feel confident that we will see the persistence and the strength that will put Paps in the HoF and keep Eric Gagne chewing cod in some NL team's pasture.

As for Jon Lester, I am not so sure.... Perhaps it's time to give Masterson another shot.

despite the problems we have had

i feel so much better when i see gagne blowing saves left and right. on the same token though, i can’t help but get a little worried…i’m sure we all remember how it was basically the same with gagne as it is with paps…he comes in, that’s game over, cuz he doesn’t blow saves. two in a row? that worries me a little. ol’ death stare needs to get his head back in the game.

while i’m at it, gagne is just one more thing that canada needs to apologize to the US for. alanis morrisette, bryan adams, canadian football, and now gagne.
