On a related note, I have decided to start referring to Lackey as Annakin. Hopefully if that catches on we shift that to calling him Annie. Which would make me happy.
Now that I think about it, the metaphor does work that way
Soscia is Obi Wan Kenobi, whom Annikin thinks has been “holding me back!” Now the dark side comes along, which gives him the opportunity to finally realize the full potential of his power.
Boston Herald – When free agency began, the Red Sox [team stats] didn’t believe John Lackey would even consider pitching in Boston. They should have consulted his wife. The former Krista Clark graduated from Sanford (Maine) High School in 1998 before earning a degree in tourism and event planning from the University of New Hampshire. When they first began dating, she had to demand that her father, brother and sister stop wearing their Red Sox gear in deference to Lackey’s position with the Angels. Needless to say, their allegiance is no longer an issue after Lackey was officially introduced as the newest member of the Red Sox this afternoon. "Back in the day my family definitely used to wear their Red Sox hats around us and it was like, ’Hey now, wait a minute,’ " Krista Lackey said. "It’s a good thing they didn’t get rid of it all. They shoved it in the back of their closets, and now they can take it out again." The Red Sox didn’t always think Lackey would want to come here. His differences with Fenway Park [map] were well-documented – he once cursed out the stadium on live TV during a particularly rough outing – and until nearly no-hitting the Sox in 2008, he hadn’t had any success here at all. But the team didn’t count on his wife’s influence. "I don’t think they thought I’d be interested," Lackey said. "But I always was. I definitely had to have my agent really let them know I was serious about this. The wife helped out a lot. (He told them), My wife went to UNH. Come on. I’m being serious here."
And they both reach into their purses and pull out little boxes that they open to show their husband’s balls. After a moment’s pause they break out laughing and high five one another.

Which I mean in an entirely understanding, I still have a mancrush on you anyway John, but the hurt is going to take some long time to heal, kind of way.
And for those of us that wise up, we get divorced. And our balls back in the process. Way to sound like a p-whipped U-Haul clone you Gomer Pyle/Kermit the frog sounding hick. And as I said in an earlier post, you now have A.J. Burnett money, take care of that shit on your face!
Haha hilarious! Then the little squeal at the end. It was kind of like Lackey and his wife teaming up together. Now just throw Tex and his wife in with Godzilla and Hank “KING” Conger and that would be a classic!
but, WiHaloFan, this is just awesome, hilarious and shows your range of talent.
My kids and I watched it over and over. A true postmodern mutli-level techno-goof/spoof, resonating on many levels for us all.
I just love watching the Godzilla character…but I’m easy to please….
Arte should be happy – he has reached his goal – the last of the 2002 world champion team – The Disney owned Anaheim Angels has left us. There is an injured Scott Shields who probably will not last long. Arte is trying to rid the baseball world of his inability in giving the Angel fans another world series team. In fact except for increasing season tickets and moving LA to Anaheim Arte has done nothing good for the Angel fans. Sorry Arte but your talks and leaked plans are just talk. You compete with the Dodgers and have a goal to be better that them – not winning the big games.
I think Lackey
looked very cute in his super heroine costume.

Perfect analogy
Does this mean that at the end of his career Annie comes back to the Angels and beats the hated empire?
SalmonStream - December 17, 2009
Funny to read this comment while listening to A New Hope on listentoamovie.com.
“She’s beautiful!” Poor Luke.
Anyway, Anakin it is.
AlanFalcon - December 17, 2009
Weird that he kisses his sister like that.
And yet, “somehow I’ve always known” comes out in Episode VI
BruinHalo - December 18, 2009 via mobile
It’s okay, if it had worked out she probably would have just convinced Luke to join the Empire “For the money” anyway.
AlanFalcon - December 18, 2009
You were the chosen one!
It was said you would bring the Halos back to the WS, not leave them in DARKNESS!

Yet somehow he’s just ends up relegated to running around calling his teammates incompetent unbelievers and strangling them whenever given the chance.

26 degrees! Yesterday the high was in the single digits with the previous night’s low below zero.
Someone find out if Jack in the Box is hiring, I want outta here!

26? Shorts weather.

Duuude, could you imagine the lines?
It’d be like when Krispy Kreme opened out here. You’d have to go at 3 AM just so the line would be “only” an hour long.

In-n-out never freezes their food...
surely, it would freeze if that meat ventured into Wi.

Wow... what a ball busting bitch...
First she makes her entire family stop wearing anything from their favorites team… and they DO IT!
Then, she makes her husband move to Bahston and play for those losers.
LOL… hey John… you chose, Buddy. Looks like you’ve got a winner there. ROFL

There is an injured Scott Shields who probably will not last long. Arte is trying to rid the baseball world of his inability in giving the Angel fans another world series team. In fact except for increasing season tickets and moving LA to Anaheim Arte has done nothing good for the Angel fans. Sorry Arte but your talks and leaked plans are just talk.
