Congratulations to the NY Yankees because it looks like they will win the world series. Finally, years and years of having the highest payroll in the league has paid off. Enjoy your championship. See you in 9 years.....

1. Your boy Johnny Damon was on fire last night. I still remember how much I hated him when he played for the Sox.
2. As much as you hate us, you'll always watch us play . Imagine if it were the Twins and Colorado in the Series?? Networks would be crying, as advertisers cough up major ad dollars (especially since it's Q4) when the Yanks are in the Series.
3. Love us or hate us, everyone watches us play. That's what makes this game so great. If the Yankee's didn't exist, baseball wouldn't be as fun to watch. There's no denying it.

4. Don't the Sox have the SECOND highest payroll in baseball? Didn't get them much did it?

I love these comparisons of payroll, the Yankees are the most valuable franchise in baseball. I terms of ratio of value to payroll the Yankees maintain a fairly reasonable payroll compared to the $1.5B worth of the team (as compared to the second most valuable baseball team - the Red Sox at $900M). So the other teams are either a) crybabies or b) jealous.

To be honest, I haven't watched one game of the playoffs or W.S.
As a non-native New Englander, I couldn't care less if the Red Sox win or lose. Actually I'm not a real fan of baseball; I just like to bust chops.

Knowing many and many native New Englanders, I can assure you that very few people are really watching the W.S. Maybe they channel surf, at best, to catch the score secretly hoping for a Yankees loss, but other than that, nobody here is even talking about the W.S.

Now, those Giants, they are going to win the Super Bowl, for sure.

That's odd. All my friends and colleagues (I'm up in Boston every 2 weeks for work) that live in Boston are watching the World Series, hoping that the Yanks lose. They IM or email me every day with, "You're such a lucky bitch!" Hahahahahaha!

I now call them Massholes. Love that one!
