Tina Cervasio Headed To NY?

Inside Track - Now don’t breathe a word of this. Because nobody’s supposed to know. But NESN’s Red Sox [ team stats] go-to gal Tina Cervasio was spotted in the Fox 5 newsroom down in NYC recently. That would be the same Fox 5 that currently has an opening for a weekend sports anchor! Word is, Tina’s contract with the Sox-owned NESN is up and they haven’t exactly shown our girl the love that she deserves. Pity . . . .Adding to the intrigue is the fact that Fox 5 GM Lew Leone hired Tina to work for him when he ran CBS2 in the Big Apple. So he is a fan.
This makes no sense. As great as the Sox have been on the field they have made some really bizarre non baseball related decisions. First they
fired Jerry Trupiano and replaced him with Glenn Gefner in the booth who I think was working as Lucchino’s pool boy before getting the gig. Now they don’t want to resign Tina Cervasio? What gives? The only explanation is that the One Eyed Bandit treats everybody like slaves and unless you are a player they want you to work for free. I mean why get rid of Tina Cervasio? As much fun as we poke at her, I freaking love her. She’s one of the few chicks who seems legitimately excited when the Sox win. Plus, once she’s gone who is going to blow Papelbon after each save? Because you know that prude Kathryn Tappen ain’t going to do it.
