Too Much Gentlemanliness Is a Bad Thing

The Boston Herald revealed that the Red Sox are "leaning toward" holding the ring-presentation ceremony at a non-Yankees game, despite the fact that the first Red Sox home game is against the Yankees. How do you stop someone who is leaning from falling on their face? By pushing them back the other way. So call up executive VP Dr. Charles Steinberg at 617-267-9440 and lodge your objection. We want the Yankees to remember - forever - the choke of '04. This was not some blip on the radar screen of history; the Babe was not just taking a smoking break. The Yankees choked. They choked bigger than any team in history. So let's not let 'em forget.

Hat tip to Boston Dirt Dogs, especially for the phone number.
