PrintIf you haven't been following Over The Monster for long, you might not know that I'm from New Hampshire. I love New Hampshire. It's my homeboy. Live free or die, ladies and gentlemen.
What comes with New Hampshire, though, is the Granite State Baseball Dinner in Manchester. The dinner is tonight and I was given a couple of free tickets the other day by my uncle. I debated about actually buying tickets before they were given to me, but I guess this works too.
What is the dinner? Well, it's everything baseball. The New Hampshire Fisher Cats (the AA team of the Blue Jays) is the host and it features a lot of big names in baseball. The biggest and best name? The Heidi Watney. Yup. NESN's own sideline reporter will be there. If you're there, you'll recognize me: I'll be the one being escorted out of the building because I was hovering too close to Heidi. Damn security.
Oh yeah, Jim Rice and Chris Carpenter will also be there. But didn't you hear me? HEIDI WATNEY!
If you're there, find me. I'll be at table 71 sharing cocktails with Heidi and swapping war stories with Jim Rice. And don't you worry: I will find out who Jim wants as the left fielder in Boston next year. Don't you worry.

Why do you need the leadership?
It won’t give you any more credibility – in fact, it could make us think you were saying something just to get readers.

I live 45 Minutes from the Manch.
I know it's early, but it's never too early for a little optimism and hope. All I know is that Soxtober is the best month of the year.
I love NH too.
My grandparents lived in Freedom. Used to go there basically every weekend. Its sick.

I'm sure Tek and Green have said similar things in the clubhouse.

was Green banging Heidi?
Good for him. He’s the one my roommate always thought was hot.

Yeah, apparently the whole hammerhead look is popular with the ladies.

Sometime maybe we can discuss how really true () this potential can be in a modern society?
don't get me started

Per usual NG, I’m not sure what you are saying, but Live Free or Die.

He said that he wasn't sure what you wanted to talk about.
You didn’t word your original comment very well, so he just agreed with what seemed to be the message of the subject line of your comment.
That said, the political discussions are rare around here for a reason – there has to be some baseball connection or it’s probably not appropriate.
