"The Red Sox have 7 legit offensive players? Other than Pedroia and Bay, who are we talking about here?", said the commenter who feels I won't post his "intelligent opinions." He goes on to tell me exactly what will happen to each Red Sox hitter in 2009. He claims the team has two solid hitters, but that nobody fears them anyway. Again, in Yankee fans' minds, they've already won. Which is what makes is extra-sweet whenever they don't. You're right, commenter, I won't be posting your "intelligent" thoughts (or cheap shots--to answer your question, No, nobody reads this blog. Except the people who continually tell me how shitty it is, yet seem to be here all day and night.)

(These are the same people who insisted that Hughes and Kennedy would lead the Yanks to the 2008 World Series, with Shelley Duncan the AL MVP--to the point where they were basically making fun of our team while declaring themselves champions of the next ten years. Yankee fans, you should know more than anyone that you actually have to win before you can brag.)
