Red Sox

The Red Sox are kicking the Yankees' asses this year, 8-0, and I'm thrilled.

The most recent series is made even sweeter because we beat their best. Wang. Burnett. Sabathia. Our bullpen has been nothing short of a firing squad (and this isn't just my opinion, even the jaded New York press agrees).

Look, part of me wants to wear my PR-guy hat and be diplomatic about this. I swear it to be true. But y'know what? Fuck that. We're 8-0 against the Yankees this year.

I just don't see how we can't win the World Series. We've beaten the living shit out of the second best team in the AL East, which is inarguably the toughest division in all of baseball. Don't even bring up the National League. Yeah, the Dodgers are up eight on San Fran. But that's like when the British kicked the snot out of Argentina in the "war" over the Falkland Islands.

I know it's irrational and somewhat immature to be so ecstatic. But so what? This is me. Allow me this tiny little piece of happiness, would you please?
