"In what has become a sports rivalry
of biblical proportions, do you find it ironic that Johnny Damon, aka
Jesus, turned out to be, in fact, Judas? Can this rivalry between New
York and Boston get any bigger? I know you can't bear to think of it
but the only logical countermove by Red Sox management is to sign
Clemens and instigate a brawl by having him bean Damon."

Okay okay. I know I keep writing about this whole Damon thing, but I
cant help it. I just respected the guy so much that I didnt think he
would ever be so backstabbing, decieving, greedy. I was reading Sports
Illistrated today and it was on Tom Brady..and he was talking about how
he turned down more money because he felt that the extra money could be
spent on the team, to make it better. Imagine that. An athlete that
turned down more money because he felt that his TEAM
deserved it more. Maybe I should put more of my attention on the
Patriots as I do the SOX because it just aggravates me that now it
seems like these players care more about money than they do for their
team.
What ever happened to team work? Sportsmanship?
When I first started playing softball, the first thing that I learned was how to be a good team player, to play for the LOVE
of the game. It seems like these players have forgotten about that.
That money is more important then being part of a good team, to work
hard and do it for not only yourself, your team but for the fans who
continue to support you year after year, no matter what. Isnt that what its all about?
I just watched Fever Pitch for the first time tonight and I understand even more so now about why I love the red sox. Its my other family, my passion.
And to some people it might seem crazy, like an obsession. But for
everyone, theres something that theyre passionate about, something they
live for. and mine happens to be the Boston friggen Red Sox. And I
wouldnt trade it for the world.
So basically Damon, go eat shit. The red sox dont need you and the fans
dont want you, you're dead to us. Go get all clean shaven and cut your
damn hair off to go be pussies with the rest of the yankees.
So many "yankees fans" have said to me "Haha we have Jesus on our side now..."
CORRECTION: Damon is not Jesus. He is a Yankee now. There is a difference. A huuggeee difference. He doesnt resemble Jesus any longer because he signed with a team that thinks LOOKS are just as important than playing the game.
What a bunch of faggots.
