Bob Lobel: Push-Gate, Brady Looking Mortal and the Sox in the Series

By Bob Lobel  @boblobel

It was a lousy way to lose a football game. 

A rule no one knew existed will likely become the least called penalty in the history of the NFL. I'm betting it will never be called again. Not because it will be removed from the book, but simply because the circumstances surrounding its use will not soon be forgotten. 

"Push-gate" will rival the Tuck Rule for its unique quality, being that nobody outside of those wearing striped shirts ever heard of it. Whether it should have been called or not isn’t the question. Really, the question that needs attention is, “who is the person wearing number 12 with the name Brady on the back?"

Bob Lobel: Rapid Reaction from Boston's ALDS Win

Jacoby Ellsbury burst on the scene in the postseason of 2007. He was an instant game changer for the Red Sox at the time.

Fast forward to 2013, and he's still that dynamic game changer. As a matter of fact, Jacoby Ellsbury is on the verge of becoming a very wealthy man. How wealthy and who pays him remains to be seen, but rest assured, it will happen.

Bob Lobel: The Origin of "Why Can't We Get Players Like That?"

By Bob Lobel  @boblobel

One of the things that has endured is a flippant little phrase I threw out on television to be a wise guy and get a laugh. 

It goes back to the late Lou Gorman trading Jeff Bagwell, a Red Sox minor league prospect, for Larry Andersen, a relief pitcher of some renown, to help the Sox win a then-elusive World Series title. The Andersen part didn’t really work out, but the Bagwell side blossomed into a home run machine for Houston.
