Robbed!  And Rewarded.

Cream Corn Sabathia OVER Hoss Beckett for AL Cy Young 2007? C'mon! This is nonsense. Sure, it's a nice award for a guy who had a great regular season (and ate as much ass in the playoffs as he does P'zones on a Sunday), and I'm sure all the bandwagon Anti-Boston fans out there see this as a victory against the 21st century's sports Rome. But come on, really? Yes I know they don't factor in the postseason and the votes are cast at season's end. And Sabathia had great number, some better than Beckett. But what a "Hey, nice season, Cleveland. Here's a bone for you since the Sox took it all" award. The make-good foul in basketball after the ref crews one up. Russell Crow winning for "Gladiator" and Denzel for "Training Day". Nonsense!

And then there was Beckett's postseason...oh well, guess I'll have to take solace in our WORLD EFFING CHAMPIONSHIP AND DUSTIN PEDROIA'S ROOKIE OF THE YEAR AWARD!

And to think lil' Dusty did it with a busted bone in his hand the last 2 months. Well-deserved, well-played, well how about that!

Dear AL and NL,

Watch out for the Red Sox in 2008, because they will be better than they were in 2007. You know, the year we won the World Series.

I'm not shitting you.

Cheers,

Fitzy

PS - If you're looking for some video nonsense to cap the day off from my recent trip to Seattle, here's a little something I put together around my boiled-over anger for Mr. Overrated himself, Shaun Alexnder. Enjoy, GFY, and 2nd half Pats Preview Webcast coming soon.
