David: Maybe I've been duped by living in Connecticut the past five years, but Red Sox-Yankees inspires a whole new level of intensity, hate and contempt. Giants-Dodgers is like seeing your wife get a peck on the cheek from your boss at the company Christmas party; Yankees-Red Sox is coming home early from work and seeing the mailman's truck in ( Read more... )

i been hollering about jim caple's point for YEARS now. it is the BEST OF ALL RIVALRIES.

we got a thing, i can deal with the giants finishing second-to-worse, as long as the dodgers are in the cellar. that is enough to get me through the off-season. the dodgers are punks and smelly and smelly punks and when i was a kid, i learned to swear by chanting 'fuck LA' at the stick.

he is hurtING. it is mental anguish. it is the kind of freakishly transparent psychological collapse that i. fucking. LIVE FOR.

he totally folded, man, he got to 17 (where he has been, by the way, for about a fucking month now), and the possibility of the cy loomed large and he utterly choked.

Even though I was a Met fan for a year or so when Shane Spencer was on the team.
