Congrats to the Red Sox...(expletive deleted)
The Red Sox won the 2007 World Series. As the Boston Globe and a long-time Red Sox fan said, they are the team of the 21st century (and the Yanks were the team of the 20th century). I don't like it, the fact that they won 2 WS in 4 seasons, but I have to respect it. It's a hard thing to do with the balance of talent (you might not think this, but the difference between the best teams in baseball and the worst is not as big as one might think).
I'll keep an eye on things this off season (ARod opted out of his contract, freakin surprise, Giardi will be the manager, an actual surprise) and comment accordingly. I thought about giving up this stupid site but I am keeping the faith that the Sox will implode in the near future and the Yankees will regain their rightful place on top of the baseball world.
And for all those smug newbie Red Sox fans, I was just in Washington DC this past weekend. You might think the entire nation is part of Loser Nation, but they are not. Outside of your windowless world, some people can't stand you and your high paying ownership. Good luck being on top, it's better than going 86 years without a World Series, but it can be crappy at times.

First, I was hours into a good night's sleep by the time the game ended. And second, where you been? I hope you weren't in Aruba wearing your banana hammock, gambling away what little money you have while your Red Sox were winning the World Series.

I only missed the last few innings of game 1 of the world series.
And yes I was gambling what little money I had in Aruba. Good times my friend, good times!
