THE sign

Another Red Sox icon is headed to the disabled list....
The Citgo sign, the bright beacon above Kenmore Square, will go dark today for a 1-to-2-month hiatus while crews replace its 218,000 LED lights with brighter, more flexible, weather-resistant versions. Just another injury to the wounded. The facelift will also cover the lights with new acrylics that will make the sign’s colors — red, white, and blue — more vibrant, and protect them from ultraviolet rays. The sign’s pulsating sequences will remain the same. The renovation may be the longest that the sign will remain entirely dark since its four-year blackout three decades ago.
How much worse can the season go, casuality wise, yet, our boys are still in the wild card chase with a suprising 54 - 42 record. Even though the symbol of our team will be lights-out for up to 2 months, it will come back-to-life BRIGHTER than ever and just in time for the playoffs. In other news, Josh Beckett a.k.a. BEX is returning for the first time since May 18 tonight at Safeco Park in Seattle. Bex doesnt speak the day before his scheduled start because of his intense prepartion. Yet, Terry Francona is confident our ACE will return to his throne and dominate. "You can hear him in the dugout making stupid comments. He's loose, ready, and ready with fire."
