SoxBlotter: A mugger, the subway and Bon Jovi

-- The Red Sox "B" logo is everywhere these days. Unfortunately, it's now appearing on alleged criminals while they are doing bad things. In New York, 13 muggings have been perpetrated since January by a man in a Red Sox hat. He does his thing on the subway, mainly against women, and has taken cash, bank cards, cameras, phones an i-Pods. He gets around, too, as he has struck in Manhattan, Brooklyn, the Bronx and Queens. Newsday describes the suspect as a "Boston fan" and decided to include a reference to David Ortiz and Kevin Youkilis in their coverage. Bostonist is not laughing.

...Bon Jovi: "Wanted Dead or Alive" (or cash or check...)

Ask Bill Belichick about last week's game, and you may as well be asking him about the Treaty of Ghent. Ask him about the 14-point-underdog Chargers, and you may as well be asking him about an All-Star team composed of the '85 Bears, '89 49ers and the Justice League of America. You know what you get from Coach Bill when you ask about football. But apparently, ask him about team fight songs and you hit a nerve.

This week ended with the launch of the seventh and final Harry Potter installation. But while the world was consumed with Pottermania, it's important to remember that there were more serious things going on in the world, too - two of them in -Ist cities. Sampaist was shocked when a passenger jet crashed into the center of Sao Paulo, killing at least 200 people. The airplane, an Airbus A320, skidded off the runway at the...

Usually we try to wax poetic about some sort of relevant piece of information. This week we're dropping all that fluff and jumping right into this week's set of picks – lots of good shows on tap for this week. Zydeco to classical, hip hop to electronica, and Bon Jovi. Monday 7/24: Wattstax with Eli "Paperboy" Reed & the True Loves Allston's Paperboy plays an opening revue for a screening of Wattstax, a film...

Perhaps not a huge fan of Clay, Bostonist is a fan of the contest. We, and we think you, like free stuff and that feeling of being special. We were reminded today of the Bon Jovi show that we gave away a pair of tickets to back in mid-October (congrats Pyng, enjoy the show!). The concert sold out for the Garden pretty quickly, but looking out the window today we think there may be a few no shows and some scalpers with tickets discarded by North Shore Bon Jovi fans who will make the wise decision not to make it into the city for the show. We don’t encourage scalping, but if you really want to see the show, check the ‘list, or hang out in North Station and see what you can find.

Oh, good old New England sometimes your weather is just so hard to love. Bostonist is sitting here looking out the window onto raindrops that have seemingly been falling for a month now. But, in addition to the forecast, which is brighter this weekend, we need something else to get us through to Friday night. Thoughts of Bon Jovi lift our spirits. Winners make us even happier So today we're picking a winner of...

Bon Jovi is playing the TD Banknorth Garden on December 9, 2005. Bostonist has a pair of tickets for a lucky reader to “Have a Nice Day” as Bon Jovi tours the world in promotion of their new album. We’ll admit it, our love for Bon Jovi just hasn’t been the same since Jon Bon Jovi cut his hair, hopped in a van, and traveled around the country “incognito” without that eighties mane. Slippery...

A few weeks ago, a story that Kevin Millar was going to be made over by the Fab 5 from "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" surfaced and now it appears to have been true...and he's not alone in wanting to get in touch with his feminine side. The Bravo show arrived in Florida today to begin their transformation of six of the World Champion Idiots of Fenway Park. Millar has been joined by fellow...
