Congratulations to the Boston Red Sox, last night you pulled off a highly unlikely comeback victory, one I missed because I figured there was no way the excellent Rays bullpen could blow a 7-0 lead.
In the process, Boston hero David Ortiz hit a 3-run homer to make the game 7-4.
What the East Coast-biased media isn't reporting today, although they certainly would be if the Red Sox had lost, is that earlier in that game David Ortiz grounded out weakly... and.... Red Sox fans booed him. Heartily.
Red Sox fans booed David Ortiz. The nicest, chillest guy, who is THE most clutch hitter, perhaps in all of history, and who led them to two FUCKING World Series championships in four years.
Assholes. What a bunch of undeserving pricks. It's common knowledge that Red Sox fans have gone from the American league version of Cubs fans, whiny and annoying. To a whole new level of self-entitled douchebaggery.
Apparently if your hero, probably the second or third best hitter to ever play on your team*, doesn't automatically carry his team to another World Championship, that's grounds for vitriol and booing. That is shameful.
Red Sox fans, you deserve NONE of the success your team has brought you. I hope the Rays, with their miniscule payroll and solid, fundamental baseball, knock you out of the playoffs thereby initiating a golden era where the Rays and Blue Jays battle for first place every year, while the overpaid, underperforming prima-donnas on the Red Sox and Yankees scuffle so as to not finish in last.
