THE NEW EVIL EMPIRE?
While I generally like the Red Sox, Papelbon is getting closer to being added to my list of most hated athletes- mostly for that mighty gay celebration dance!! The only thing missing is Dane Cook as a dance partner! Wasn't too crazy about Ortiz wearing protective goggles in the dugout in the ninth inning- I kow the game was over, but c'mon. Papi's wife (at least from this picture) doesn't look too bad, so he redeems himself slightly. Red Sox Nation- better chill a little and get used to no longer being the "lovable underdog", as I am guessing most of the non-Red Sox nation will be rooting for the Rockies. Duke went from being the team the nation loved (versus the evil UNLV) to being, well, you know, apparntly some people you don't know better root agaisnt Duke! Terry Francona- an amazing record in elimination games, something like 7-1. The one defeat, yes- by the White Sox.
