Oh, Manny
Blog Image

Time was that the most obnoxious fans on the planet were Yankees fans. Smug, single-minded, overly content.

Now, of course, we know there is something worse: Red Sox fans.

Especially ex-pat Red Sox fans.

Especially ex-pat Red Sox fans in Philadelphia this week.

They're everywhere. We're surrounded. We're already sick of them and Cole Hamels hasn't warmed up.  It's all Manny, Manny, Manny.

Manny, are we sick of this.

So, for the good of all, let's hope the Phils silence their crowing.

Otherwise, the next three days are going to be painful.
