In addition to voting for the roster of the All-Star game, there's something else every Red Sox fan over the age of eighteen should be voting for... The Governors of Red Sox Nation.

This is a completely new thing, so don't feel left out if you haven't heard of it before. Sox fans from six different states (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New ( Read more... )

That Ian picture is amazing. Has he seen that? (His server seems to be down at the moment.)

redsox_njdevils June 2 2008, 03:52:34 UTC

Actually, he hasn't. I e-mailed him to check if it was okay if I posted it, but I saw that S&D was down, so I figured it might be a while until I get a response.

If you keep clicking the picture, it will get super-huge.
I'm just hoping his name is pronounced the way I think it is. Otherwise, it wouldn't make much sense...

I actually looked up the pronunciation and it is normally pronounced either BehTHOON or BehTHYOON, but there are some people in England who pronounce it BEEton. Odd. We'll have to ask him. I would have guessed BehTHOON. BTW, that's a very cool picture.

BehTHOON. That's what I guessed, too (which is why I rhymed it with monsoon!).

Heh I'm tempted to run for RI rep...though I think I'd be pretty sucky at it. However, I could run for the fact that I could give Red Sox fans a good name....

You should run! You have about a bazillion friends on your friends list and even more IRL, so you'd be able to get a ton of votes!

Incidentally, to my knowledge one doesn't have to be from New England to vote. The field that asks for the state is associated with Ian, not with the voter's location. My vote went through with my proper zip code.

redsox_njdevils June 2 2008, 04:19:53 UTC

Yep. The reason mine didn't go through is that I'm not old enough. =(

I'm glad you voted for him!

Ian's running? I'll have to go vote for him, then! (And this comes at a time when I'm about to get one of my first chances to vote in real life...I'm doubly excited!)

redsox_njdevils June 2 2008, 04:21:45 UTC

Cool! I can't vote, but I'm glad you can!
After always putting up all of those videos for us, he definitely deserves our votes!
