Welcome to Boston ... Joel Hanrahan.   He will join the following in a new look Red Sox 2013 edition....David Ross,  Shane Victorino, Stephen Drew,Ryan Dempster, Joel Hanrahan, Koji Uehara, Johnny Gomes  and perhaps Mike Napoli.

Newtown

Obviously something needs to be done to prevent another national tragedy, another gun massacre.   Yes "guns" don't kill, people do.   But sorry NRA, there is no need for a regular person to have a gun that can fire 30 bullets in a matter of seconds.   Thoughts and prayers to all the victims and their families as Christmas approaches.
