Biggest series ever is starting tonight. Sox V. Yankees, I mean whomever wins tonight is going to win everything,then come tomorrow whomever wins is going to go all the way, but THEN on Thursday, oh go big Thursday.. Imagine if the Red Sox and Yankees split game 1 & 2 and we have a rubber match! Holy shit. Might as well give the rings to whomever wins that!
Here is just a sample of why the sox are so much better:
Per Si.com (on drafting since 2001):
Would you rather be the team that has had the second best draft or 24th? I mean this is a STAYSTICALY proven FACT.. Has to be true.

But it gets better, NY Post:
The Yankees will have “home-field” advantage at Fenway Park tonight, thanks to one fan’s grassroots effort to sabotage the Red Sox.
Ian Ferris, 30, a Bombers fan in the heart of Red Sox Nation, green-thumbed his nose at Boston by planting Yankee Stadium grass in the Fenway infield during a May 31 Phish concert.
Yankee Stadium grass seeds went on sale this year. Ferris hid the seeds in his pants as he entered Fenway, filled the bag with water and tossed it onto the infield.
“This is payback,” said Ferris, who manages a Hooters in Vermont. “If even one blade of grass sprouts on the field, I feel it was a success.”
He said he hoped the stunt would undo the jinx put on the new Yankee Stadium by a jersey-burying construction worker, Gino Castignoli of The Bronx. But Castignoli is not concerned.
“My curse is working,” he said. “It’s typical of a Yankee fan to think you can buy a jinx in a bag. When will they learn, you don’t win with your wallet but with your heart?”

This guy is so gay. Hey I know what I will do, I will buy some seeds and go to a Phish concert at Fenway park.. THEN I will plant the NY Yankee field seeds and drop them around Fenway park. Does this guy not realize that seeds are seeds, just because the Yankees sell them with their label on them does not make them special. I am sure they are some brand or mixture, but they have absolutely no relation. This guy is a friggin idiot. Ladies and Gentleman your 2009 NY Yankee FANS.. YEAH!!
