Boston Red Sox HUB:
"There's no question the new Red Sox owners are masters of the public spin.
But every so often they swing and they miss. Like Monday night, when they 'renamed' the left-field foul pole 'Fisk Pole'."
Passion's Triangle and Trot's 'Taint?
RED SOX HUB-BUB:
"Fisk Pole": Sounds like something in Pete Shepherd's VCR.
In keeping with the Barnum and Bailey/Hollywood theme coming over from Yawkey Way these days...We propose that the centerfield triangle be renamed either: Christ's Corner or Passion's Triangle.
"Trot's 'Taint"???
With apologies to "Trupe," who cleverly coined the name "canvas alley" to describe that tarp filled area between first base, right field, and the stands, the area will now be formally named for Gritty Red Sox Right Fielder Trot Nixon.
Stated Red Sox p.r. Dentist Charles Steinberg:
"In honor of the Red Sox Right Fielder and his hard nosed play, and of course, decorum and shameless promotion...we rename canvas alley
"The Gillete Mach7 Trot Taint." This is one Gillette shaving promotion that we'll be skipping...Carson Kressley would think it "Fabulous."

Icing on the Cake for Larry Lucchino:
Larry had to chuckle when seeing Carson and the rest of the "Fab Five" wearing Nomar's #5 on their backs while prancing around during spring training...a detail overlooked by the always prepared dentist Charles Steinberg and Hollywood Tom Werner?? Or just one more subtle kick at the down and out Ex-Red Sox shortstop? Probably somewhere in between a planned delicious recipe and fortuitous creation...either way, it was just another sweet piece of humble pie served up to Cubbie Nomie by Uncle Larry.
