Our resplendence...

Bill:
Well, and there goes another insipidly derivative American Idol male winnah whom everyone will forget about in 1, 2, 3...

Mike:
I think I forgot about him before I could remembah to forget about him, but, you know, maybe Bobby V can give him a shout out.

 

---

Bill:
Speaking of forgettable, it's been awhile since we've gotten one of these "Oh you Red Sox fans you're just so, so melodramatic and petty and oh gosh darn why can't you just be quiet and milquetoast like us corn cobs out here in Blandsville, USA?"

 

---

Mike:
Cincinnati, eh? Sigh. That's almost too easy.

 

---

Bill:
What I find most amusing is how there's been hundreds and hundred of these hand wringing "Boston is so nuts!" themed pieces written ovah the years, yet I can't think of a single time anyone's written a "Jeez, I wish we were more like Kansas City or Cleveland or Cincinnati" plea.

 

---

Mike:
Yeah, hatahs need to just give it up. We are different than you and what you misunderstand and bloviate about as as negatives about us are the very things that make who we are.

 

---

Bill:
And it's not "provincialism," it's fucking "wickedpissahism."

 

---

Mike:
Look, people, get ovah it because even our scarecrows are wicked pissah.

 

---

Bill:
Of course, because even the crows around heah are wicked pissah.

I don't think I've spent one second of my life thinking about anything that has ever gone on in Cincinnati. Well, the frozen turkey episode of WKRP was funny, but that was shot in Los Angeles.

[Bob]

Oh, and the Skankees are for sale:

[Go Sox, Go Heels, etc.]

Now all we need is a billionaire Sox fan with a sense of humor.

[yarnista]

We here in Cincinnati second guess Dusty on a regular basis, but we save our most vitriolic spleen for Mike Brown and the Bungles during the months of August - January, known around here as "College Basketball Season".

[MWL in MD]

Camden Yards was a fun place to be on Wednesday. We got several "Let's Go Red Sox!" chants going which had to be drowned out by their Cheerleader PA System.

[soxinsix]

The thing I remember most about WKRP was Les Nesman trying to pronounce 'Chi Chi Rodriguez' in a news story and totally destroying it. Oh, and Bailey Quarters. Sweet Bailey Quarters.

Considerating NYS taxes*, the Steinbrenners would be crazy to sell the evil empire. But, their HQ is in St. Pete FL!
Can you say See You in Court?
The Dodger sale will look like the sale of a strip mall in Mudville, compared to this.
* Mike Lupica says they'd be nuts, so...

Cincinnati?

ye! the godless are the dull and the dull are the damned

[Jeff in NC]

And Shoppach, you can cry all night
But that'll never change the way that I feel
The self absorbed bitching's piling up outside
I wish you wouldn't make me hate you

You'll never find good times or fans in Cincinnati
For a game you'll never shut down a city street
I know you're looking for a problem with the Boston Redsox
But there ain't no room for you bitching 'bout the drama at the lyric bandbox!

I can't lie, I can't tell you that I'm something I'm not
No matter how I try
I'll never be able to be a boring middle America fan with no heart, and no cock

Well there is only one team that I will ever love
And that started so many years ago
And though I know I'll never get them out of my heart
They never loved me back,ooh I know

And she kept on telling me
The Redsox kept on telling me
They kept on telling me

I want you, I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad,
'Cause two out of three in Baltimore ain't bad.

[yazbread]

You have to figure that a city that raves about something as bland as skyline chili is suspect.

[pseudosanity78]

For somebody trying not to give a fuck, that guy sure seems to give a lot of fucks about what goes on with Red Sox fans and the organization as a whole.

That's some nice 'Loaf there Jeff. A mighty nice loaf indeed.

[Jeff in NC]

Exactly what i was trying to pinch out.

[Harwich Rich]

Haha Jeff-don't let your meat loaf!! ;D

[Dustbunny44]

We could surely find enough people to put in say $500.00 each and buy the Yankees. Imagine the possibilities.
