Have a laugh at this Red Sox article

PrintYou'd think every baseball fan on Earth right now would be more or less numb to the idea of a player being outed as a roider. Ah, but once again, we find that Red Sox fans believe they and their team poop sunshine and live on some sort of magical, negro-free cloud in the heavens. Oh sure, they expect a team like the FACKIN' YANKEES to have roiders. But not the precious Red Sox! They're different! Special! They'd never violate the bond they have their legendary fans, who have been known to keep entire city grids powered simply with the strength of their hearts!
You listen to me, you ****ing retards. You're just another bunch of ***hole fans rooting for another ***hole team. And the fact that you think you're somehow above all that is what makes you utterly insufferable. I hope it turns out the Jason Varitek took HGH in 2004 and once killed a child in a drunken lawnmowing accident...
All through the [Boston Globe] article are testimonials from fans who suspected Ortiz was a juicer (because Boston fans are so perceptive, you see), but refused to believe it because they're all innocent little fawns at heart. I promise you the Simmons article on this next week will include this stand-alone paragraph:
"But not Papi. Papi was different."
He's not. He's just another ballplayer trying to get ahead. And Red Sox Nation is just another group of ****heads wearing pink hats. Keep crying those delicious tears, gang.
After attending tonight's Baltimore-Boston game (check out one Yankee fan's sign),
and having to sit next to insufferable Sox fans, I can say this article is pretty accurate.
May it lift your spirits on a tough night.

I've heard that David Ortiz was going to do the Home Run Derby this year
but then it was decided that it would be unfair.
You see, David is so “clutch” that he would immediately get the first 9 outs. Then, on his 10th out “gold ball” he would hit nothing but home runs. The Derby would literally never end.
Gotta thank them for not ruining that at least.
it sure cheered me up
after that tough lost

Why, we can be friends with jerks
Hey Travis,
I’m not proud of this: I attended a September RS / Yankees game in 1978. Playoff atmosphere. In the long shadows of late summer afternoon, the game on the line, a lot of the bleacher fans were taking part in a drunken war dance and many of the louder ones wore the most vile and obscene T-shirts I’ve ever seen, with X-rated slogans suggesting violent sex acts directed against Yaz and Fisk. Disturbing then, not funny now. Of course, similar trends occur at every ball park.
Advice: stay outta the cheap seats, my friend.
Of course, there are lots of Red Sox fans who strut around like Bowery pugs and mouth all kinds of garbage to Yankees fans, as they do to fans of every other team. So what? Most of them a living baseball as a metaphor
for their lives. They just are too blind to see it.
Who gives a rat’s fart if Red Sox management is being hypocritical in protecting Papi? Is their public statement affording protection to some tainted ballplayer or are they awaiting the actual outcome like everybody else?
A Rod: when asked to comment on allegations re: Ortiz.
“He’s my friend. That’s all I have to say about this.”
The Red Sox, strangely, are behaving all year as if they have given up their strategic advantage as the underdog. This will come bite them in September.
ejs
i love how
there is ZERO proof that Ortiz and Ramirez cheated in either 04 or 07, but they’re tainted now. Ortiz wasn’t breaking the rules. There wasn’t a rule against it in 2003. Another point: baseball players have ALWAYS done things against the rules to get ahead, like taking amphetamines before games, or throwing spitballs.
Hmmm....
I remember Yankee fans making similar statements and being treated to
“A-ROD’S A FACKIN GAY CHEATAH”
What goes around comes around. Now your guys have gotten caught. Hopefully at some point we can put this whole pointless finger pointing aside because EVERY team has players who used.
But for the time being, making that argument is just ridiculous when your team’s fanbase has been the one yelling the loudest in the past.
I love how
Red Sox fans try to defend this. Ortiz and Manny tested positive in 2003 and stopped for the championship run? They were kind enough to know that the roids would taint the championships so they stopped. They resumed them in 2005 and 2006 tho, that’s why you didn’t win, cuz they were on roids those years.
And I know the robotic comeback is A-Rod. Its always A-Rod. Did he do it after 2003? Like you said, there’s zero proof. There’s also no championships for him to taint in that time.
Dark day for baseball
AS a Yankee fan, my initial reaction was of excitement and joy. If you saw pix of Ortiz when he was with the twins he was much smaller. Also his quick statistical dropoff the past year and 1/2 makes you wonder even more.
Bus as this story continues to gather steam, it makes me sad and I wish it would go away. If there are still almost 100 other names on this list that are not known, will we have to keep tasting ths foul taste every time another big name gets released?
What bothers me about this is Manny and Papi saying they are stunned by this announcement. Come on guys, be a man and own up to what you were doing? The truth shell set you free.
With the Sox coming into NY for a big 4 game series this Thursday, are we going to spend useless time with the press talking about this nonsense, or focus our energy on the fact that the Yankees need to find a way to beat the Sox this year.
Only time will tell how this steroid era will be handled for records and hall of fame entrance. For now I would just rather focus on taking 3 out of 4 from the Sox this coming week and the Yankees righting the ship today with a win by CC.
Winning the division will go a long way in making this year a special one.
I love how stupid Sox fans can be
Do they honestly think Ortiz and Manny stopped for the playoff run? Well, if we told them that, they would say “well, A-Rod never stopped either”. Are you kidding me? There is zero proof the A-Rod continued using them. A-Rod is A-Rod. He hits 40 homers and drives in 120 every season, simply because of the talent he has. Thats why he was known as for so many years, the best player in baseball. Now? He’s still the best player in the AL, but I think Pujols with his 32 homers in the first half may have surpassed him.
But Ortiz and Manny? Well, there is proof Manny continued to use them. He was caught this season. Ortiz? Well, he’s no A-Rod. He was barely in the major leagues. He didn’t have the talent. He suddenly comes to the Red Sox, and within 2 years hits 56 home runs? Thats unnatural. He didn’t have the talent to be a superstar.
Red Sux, I mean Red Sox fans are so narrow minded and only see things from one perspective. It’s honestly hard to believe that Ortiz stopped after 2003, when his numbers got even BETTER. I mean, come on Sux, I mean Sox fans. Look at the facts and it may become clear to you.
Oh, and while we're on the Red Sox
The Yankees saw some sense. I saw an article in the Daily News that said the Yankees moved their rotation. Joba Chamberlain is pitching the first game of the Boston series, and Sergio Mitre is not pitching against the Red Sox. Thats good for us. Now we need a win today.
