There's some kind of weird hatred towards the Sox on this site. I think it comes from the Connecticut yuppies that chose the Yankees as their team in the late 90's when they were great but didn't have a football team to supprot until the Pats started tearing it up. There's also some who like only the NFL and get mad that the Sox have dominated Boston sports despite not having quite as much success as the Pats in recent years, but fail to recognize the more storied history of the Sox and their role in building the Boston sports psyche. What I don't understand is why everyone can't realize that we have room for all of our great teams and that the unbelievable success of all our teams as of late is something to celebrate. I love Boston and we shouldn't have to pick one team and compete against the others for sports monopoly. But I guess it's a pretty nice problem to have....
