I criticize Theo Epstein, not due to my insane upbringing as a Boston sports fan or my paternal demeanor towards the teams, but due to the misaligned perception our GM has been receiving since he has been running the Red Sox.
When we win, he could do no wrong. When we lose, he still could do [...]
I’m sorry, but the argument last year was that neither the Red Sox nor Manny Ramirez made it to the World Series. And in the 2009 campaign for the trophy, much of Red Sox Nation felt that we could win it without the dreads in the outfield.

If you just told the truth, Red Sox fans would’ve brought you back with open arms. [...]
“I looked up and I was like, ‘Holy Cow, he’s actually doing it.’ Everybody around me was giving me a hard time saying, ‘What the heck, he’s wearing White Sox stuff.’ That’s how we roll in Chicago, we got the president behind us,”
