    It works well for the 1% - the Yankees and Red Sox.

    I like the sox, and liked it better the way it was before - way more.

    The Sox are a required affliction if you're from New England, handed down from father to son, . . . like a genetic defect.

    I used to like them back when they were lovable losers. I had my doubts about Ortiz and ManRam, but they got their rings which I think most Boston fans would be willing to do anything for. I'm not judging, can't say I would have felt any differently were I a New Englander - I've seen that religion first hand.

    In my lifetime alone, I saw them lose three game 7s, 67, 75 and 86. To me, the 75 series with the Big Red Machine is still the all time best - even though they lost.

    Seattle Mariners win 4 on the road and then lose 5. Young team for the most part. Wait until next year.
