Boston.com, the militant online wing of the Globe, published their “50 Scariest Movies of all Time”, in the hit-grubbing tradition of Halloween.

Halloween. That magical time of year when all the little pagan rugrats come out and break your windows and steal your pets for sacrificial offerings. That special time of the year when a gang of knife-wielding mexicans might actually be less scary than a pack of 11-year olds.

The Patriots looked like crap on Sunday night. Yecch. Matt Cassel is not great, but neither is the Patriots D. Nothing much about the Pats looked good. I went ahead and got plowed at our local sports bar ripoff and made my better half steer me home.
Game 2 of the ALCS…what’s the deal with Beckett!? [...]
