Another Pedroia

This is an older Pedroia I did about mid-season.

Yes We Can!

Not to get to political, but......
I thought McCain's concession speech spoke of the night's magnitude. It was a great day for America, the people had spoken and McCain was noble in defeat. I did not vote for him but I admire the man tremendously, he is a true American, and I hope history remembers him as such.

Papi and Manny

Here is another Halloween drawing. It was posted on http://www.bostondirtdogs.com/ on Halloween. This is a slightly altered version, the font is different then what was posted. Thanks Andy Fish for the tip, it made a big difference in the piece.
