OK.... I know that you are young, but you need to realize that comments like this are why people are beginning to hate Sox fans like they have hated Yankee fans for years.
I have been a fan of the Red Sox since the early '80s (I was 5 years old when I started following them). So I have been through years of pain.... And I am very excited to have the Sox in their 2nd WS in 4 years. However, when you start to badmouth the other team and the other league, you leave a bad taste in people's mouths.
I think that there were MANY people who enjoyed seeing the Sox break the championship drought, because at that time, Sox fans were seen as the loveable, always hopeful fans who supported the team through everything. Now that we've won the WS, too many "fans" are too busy being obnoxious to enjoy the success that the team is having. We should be celebrating the fact that the Sox won the East for the first time in nearly a decade and won their 2nd pennant in 4 years instead of bashing other teams.
