Great. Now we have to listen to Henry referencing them winning a rounders league in every interview for the next year.
I normally talk baseball with Ross, who's too busy loving some woman.
Very happy for the BoSox - phenomenal turnaround (worst to first) from the Bobby V crap, or the chicken n' beer festivities with Francona.
Ortiz has been phenomenal - a great personal turnaround for him too.

Not a huge fan of the Red Sox approach this season to be completely honest, they basically shipped a couple of overpaid "star" players out and replaced them with numerous above average guys.
It just happened to be that a number of the guys they recruited either overachieved or were adequate, it's not a real sustainable model for success, but I suppose it makes a great storyline, especially with the bombings and all being played up as well.
Farrell was a decent manager for them, but he has to do better in the future at using his resources properly in close games, the same goes for Matheny. For me, this was a poorly managed World Series, which was really disappointing.
It'll be very interesting to see how the Red Sox approach the offseason this year, as in all likelihood they're going to lose Napoli and Ellsbury, and there isn't a whole lot of talent nailed down beyond their middle infield and Ortiz. It certainly feels like they built for a one year window, so credit to them for hitting the mark.
