"WE DID IT! WE DID IT!"
These were chants you heard last night from the pink hats and corporate suck ups as the Red Sox clinched the American League pennant.
What did you do? What part did you play during the season to help achieve this PHENOMENAL feat? Did you bat? Did you field? Did you coach? Did you pitch?
NO, NO, NO and NO.
What you did was criticize Terry Francona - some of you even called him FranCOMA. You lambasted him for sticking with Pedroia, Lugo, Coco and JD. You unmercifally criticized JD Drew for his lack of hitting and lack of emotion even when he was
dealing with an issue at home that would have sent most of you scurrying for the
Jack Daniel. You called for the hitting coach's head when the team went into a funk.
Yet you now have the softballs to chant WE DID IT.
You know what you did? You bought more beer than ever before. You bought more memorabilia than ever before. You made John Henry and Company richer. You made Jerry Remy the Donal Trump of baseball. You have made all the corporate sponsors richer.
That's what you did and in gratitude the ownesrship will increase the prices once again next year.
Just pray that your beloved Red$ox wins the World Series, otherwise the season will be a total bust. I'd like to see the likes of Cleveland with a payroll ($60 million)a third of the size of the wealthy $ox win it all.
The city , the vendors, RemDog Industries are all rooting for the $ox that way they can take more of your money.
It must be nice living in the Back Bay. Good luck on the next series.
