OK, time to put me in cold storage again.

Congrats to the World Series Champion Boston Red Sox. Y'all won this series with excellent play at all levels.

However, 2 championships in 4 seasons means you are no longer the cute, plucky underdogs. You are now seen on an equal footing as the Yankees as symptoms of What Is Wrong With Baseball.

*sigh* Somebody thaw me out when the Giants' pitchers and catchers report.

News that broke during the game: A-Rod will not be returning to the Yankees. Hmmm... we suddenly have a large chunk of payroll available...

Hey, we need a third baseman too - Wes Helms is not who I want at the hot corner.

Hey, the curse of relief pitcher Curtis Leskanic (http://www.theonion.com/content/news/red_sox_attempt_to_break_fabled) was a heavy cross to bear.

Yes its really fun having my favourite team, the Toronto Blue Jays, in the same division as those two spendthrifts.

I usually hope we can win the Cy Young that year.

And the fans will scream red and blue murder if they sign A-Rod. Bless them. :)

Sort of like when Johnny "Caveman" Damon signed with the Yankees?
