Look who's back/back again

TATB's initial reactions upon learning of Theo Epstein's offseason-salvaging decision to return to the Red Sox front office in a yet-to-be-defined capacity:

1) Woo-hoo! God does love the Red Sox after all! (No, we don't mean you, Lucchino.)

2) "(Bleep), yeah!" (Followed by Jeter-style fistpump)

3) Hey, think he can play center field?

(We vow to get into this in slightly more depth in a Nine Innings column tonight. Be sure to set your VCRs!)

Update, 12:31 a.m.: Um, make that sometime over the weekend. I'm beat tonight and going into hibernation for 10 or so hours.

Update, 9:19 a.m., MondayNot that I regret playing with that dead pigeon in the driveway, but I'm pretty sure I have the bird flu. Either that, or I caught the virus my two-year old had last week. Hoping to have a post up tonight. As always, thanks for checking in.
