Cue “Bittersweet Symphony”
It is with a heavy heart that I pass on the news of Tina Cervasio’s imminent departure from NESN. It seems like only yesterday that I first beheld her beaming visage on my television, and was immediately caught off guard by her eager and gregarious nature, not to mention her fantastic interviewing skills and soft, ample arms. Two years have passed since then, passed too quickly and ended too soon. But I will always remember the moments of joy I spent with her during long and sultry summer afternoons, the enthralling and strangely erotic pre-game chats she had with Amelie Benjamin, the wind feathering through her finely sculpted coiffure. It will forever be to my shame that I was unable to cherish our last moments together, moments in which I was blissfully unaware of Tina’s discontent, not knowing she secretly harbored her own dreams, dreams of flight. Perhaps, some day, my television signals will cross hers again as we go our separate ways. Perhaps not. Either way, I will forever carry her memory in my heart.
OK, time to go stare at my fantasy team and imagine it with Santana as a Met.

I grew to love her over the two years. Her constant perkiness convinced me that she was the type of girl who would let you do unspeakable things to her and be happy about it.
By unspeakable things, I of course mean leave her laundry in the dryer too long so that her clothes get all wrinkled. She would hate that.

I never knew heterosexuality could be this gay.
