Dear Blogger,
I have nothing to say, but the Red Sox won the World Series last night.
For eighty-some years, the Red Sox were defined as the team that fought the Yankees tooth and nail. Even if they still lost, we loved them because they did what no one else could: stood up to the Yanks. The good ol' Red Sox.
Not anymore. They've won the World Series twice in four years, and more importantly, they've broken that damn curse.
Stop it.
There's no curse.
God doesn't curse baseball, and, if there was, why would God curse the Red Sox?
Listen:
The Red Sox are just like the rest of the shmucks in the major leagues after they broke that curse. No, wait. They're not! The Yankees have the highest payroll, the Red Sox have the second. They're not just like the rest of us! They're just like the Yankees.
And everyone in baseball thinks the Yankees are evil, right?
Go, Team,
Steve

Word, Steve. The Red Sox -- though they define themselves as the anti-Yankees -- have becomes Yankees-lite. Their payroll is close to New York's and leaps and bounds ahead of the rest of the league's.
But still, fuck the Indians.
Brennan, thank you so much for that. The Central Division is the only non-evil division in the AL.
