My Boyfriend's Back . . .

(Image from Sitting Still)

and he'll be here for three years now . . . hey yah, hey yah, my boyfriend's back.

Break out the champagne & cigars, kids. I know I'm a bit late with the news, but as my dad, NESN, and Jason told me today, "Mike Lowell has re-signed!" That's right, Lowell has agreed to a 3-year, $37.5 million contract with the Sox.

I have to admit - I didn't pay a ton of attention to Lowell in the '06 season. I'm not sure why, exactly, but I made up for it in '07. I've been consistently impressed with the skill and, more importantly, the good sportsmanship exhibited by Lowell. He's one of those names to which the adjective "classy" is nearly always attached.

Jason, I know you don't like my calling Lowell my boyfriend (since he was yours first), but I'm sorry. A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta go. I love the guy. ;) The thought that he'll be playing for us until 2010 (
barring any stupid trades) fills me with joy right now!

At least call him "World Series MVP Mile Lowell" if you are going to call him you boyfriend. We should all try to use his full name at all times.
