In less than 24 hours the world got to see how different the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox are. The season hasn't started yet and already the comparisons and fire that go along with this rivilary are brought to light.
The Yankees went to a college campus to help people who have been suffering and mourning, while the Red Sox complain about their coaches not getting paid enough.
This is a joke and a disgrace to the game of baseball! How dare the Red Sox jepordize the game's integrity by trying to put themselves first.
I want to thank the New York Yankees for showing me what's important in this world, but most importantly, for showing me what's not and what's disgraceful.

Joba to the pen
The decision has finally been made and to many it is no surprise. Joba Chamberlain will be pitching from the bullpen for the New York Yankees to start 2008.

I admit it: I was drawn in by the Red Sox' faux boycott
After following this story's permutations — Sox coaches won't be paid appearance fee (Boston Herald); Sox players threaten to boycott Jays game and trip to Japan (ESPN); Manny wants to be traded again (Wicked Good Sports) — I really wish I didn't read newspapers, watch ESPN, or comb countless sports Web sites during an average day.
