    My grandpa was a Sox fan. Not sure why but he was hahahha and I just always watched Sox games with him and it was passed down. Strange I know. I still have a soft spot for the Jays, but will always root against them if they are playing the Sox.

    I like classy fans from other teams. Pedro is probably my favorite non Astro of all time. Just incredible. I’m no Sox fan but there’s less animosity there then towards the Yankees/Dodgers.

    When you compare Tony La Russia with Dustoid Baker, both come out smelling like Horse manure.

    this Sox fan seems like a nice guy….possibly too nice…especially considering the fan base. Be careful y’all, we may just be dealing with the scapegoat video intern who got pinned for the cheating scandal

    I think we all had the caveat of, if Lance isn’t hurt this is a dumbass decision. Well Lance was hurt and Dusty made the right call. Props to him for Yimi working out and trusting Maton for a 2nd inning. I’ve talked my share of Dusty trash so credit where it’s due.

    At least you can say your Grandpa was a fan and watching with him made you a fan. As a kid I was a Jays fan but I somehow became an Astros fan.

    My family were all Saint Louis Cardinal fans, because that was the only team you could get on the radio in Central Texas back in the 40-50's.

    I totally know what you mean. I have nothing but respect for the Astros. If Sox don’t make it I’ll root for the Astros for sure! I don’t mind the Braves either but I don’t think they have much of a chance agaisnt San Fran or LA. But I hope I’m wrong there.

    Nothing wrong with that at all! I still have a soft spot for the Jays too. Watching the Sox win the World Series in 04 really made me die hard. I was 17 at the time and didn’t realize how beautiful baseball was till the Sox beat the Yankees in game 7.

    Im also an Edmonton Oilers fan and they have been garbage for a long time now so it makes me appreciate a good team that much more lmao
