What a shocker. I mean, WE were doing so great until Sept. 3. And then THEY had a worse September than Rick Perry.
There is no joy in Shillville.
Worst choke in baseball history, even worse than the Braves this year, the Braves who used to play in Boston, which as someone said yesterday proves that you can take the Braves out of Boston, but you cant take the Boston out of the Braves.
Everyone chant together, Were number three! Were number three!
I guess the cream of the Boston sporting press is going to have to find some new rear ends to kiss. Beanpot Fever Grips Hub! Prepare for three months of enthralling sports talk.
Host No. 1: I love Tom Brady.
Host No. 2: I love Tom Brady more than you do I got a lock of his hair when he went to the barbershop!
Host No. 1: I got two locks of his hair!
Host No. 2: Rah-rah-
Host No. 1: Sis-boom-bah.
But dont worry. By February, WEll have the best team in baseball again. Every jock-sniffer in the city will agree, just like they do every year. Just like the Patriots are a dynasty, even though the last time THEY won a Super Bowl was the year George Bush was re-elected.
The clue on the Red Sox should have been that the Yankees always have players with nicknames such as Mr. October. The Red Sox are full of Mr. Mays, and I dont mean Willie.
You know how much fun it is to go to Fenway when WEre winning. But its horrible to pay $30 to park when THEY start losing. WE were so smart to get Carl Crawford last winter, but now it looks like THEY wasted $142 million.
It was like a morgue in some hotbeds of Red Sox worship yesterday. I know, Im writing this column from a place where seldom make that never is heard a discouraging word about THEM. I would have taken some of the mourners out to lunch, but I was afraid theyd make like their heroes and ... choke.
Now the pom-poms are put away. The fatties are looking for their 3-XL Tom Brady No. 12 sweatshirts. Honestly, it would take a heart of stone not to laugh at these guys living in their moms basements, calling the shows at midnight, their voices cracking, demanding that baseball add more wild-card teams so the Red Sox could get in. ...
One sweatshirt you wont see much of for the next few months No. 58. That belongs to baseballs best reliever (according to the Red Sox hagiographers), Jonathan Papelboneinhisthroat.
To everyone in Shillville, I leave you with one thought. WE didnt lose, THEY did.
As a Red Sox fan I have to say karma is a b!tch. Only anectdotally but I believe their slide started when they did those gay teen harassment ads. Things we do in life have consequences both here on earth and in heaven.
The Tigers play baseball.
You see, I was just taking the opportunity to brag a little about my downtrodden Bills. That's all.
“brag a little” gottcha, nothin wrong with that.
