Nobody read Bob's blog anymore

Some bloggers just don't know how to act. This is my official response to Bob Almighty's comment from my last post, which read:

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and yes to answer the big question the Red Sox still suck.

I realize that I have a lot of misguided New Yorkers who might read my blog, but let me clarify an important point that Bob has confused.

Yankees Suck!

It's not about baseball, I don't even like baseball. It's about pride. It's about how if you go to a Dropkick Murphys concert in Boston instead of just screaming for an encore the audience will bust into a chant of "YAN-KEES-SUCK! YANK-EES-SUCK!" It's about principles. It's about how the agents of players who weren't going to be traded or who were promised to the Red Sox disappear into back rooms with Steinbrenner's people and suddenly are traded to the Yankees. It's about waiting till a Sox player makes it big, and then sucking him into the Yankees just as he's peaking. It started with Babe Ruth, almost 100 years ago, and then Clemens (who's still going strong thanks to *ehem* the wonders of modern medicine), A-rod, and others I can't remember right now because I don't really follow baseball. It's about how the Yankees always blow the first half of the season because their in-season doping regimen hasn't kicked in yet, and then they overtake the Red Socks come playoff time because the Red Sox are clean and play every game with a shining halo over their head. Yeah, I said it!

Like I said, it's not about baseball. New York, you think you're so great down there with your millions of people, with your tall buildings, with your sand-wich-es, with your Wall Street and Broadway and 5th Avenue, China Town and Little Italy, but you're not so special. We have tall buildings too, we have lobster rolls, we have a financial district and a theater district just like you, we have Newbury Street, our very own China Town, and the North End. Does a Green Monster have your back in Yankees Stadium? And have you ever had a tea party? Do you have New Kids on the Block? Do you have David E. Kelly?! Yeah, no, I didn't think so.
But I can understand a New Yorker who's a Yankees fan. It would be like someone born into the Jehovah's Witnesses, it's not your fault that your people are annoying. What I think is pathetic is when someone from Connecticut (Bob Almighty), or New Jersey (my dad), or God forbid BOSTON (my best friend's sister's boyfriend) can't find a better team to rout for.

Note: Things have been kind of crazy with the move and the job search. Blogs will continue, but not with the same regularity until I have more to talk about.
