BTW.... When the Yanks or Sox can beat 455 and sellout the stadiums in nearby cities, and be the #1 selling apparel (well that's impossible for them not to in most years), AND have their televised games as the #1 primetime show in their area..... CLEVELAND did all that in the 90's and early '00's and are on their way to doing it again.
THEN and only then will I believe in the Sox and Yankee mystique..... until then they are lucky enough to play in areas of high corporate headquarters (tax write-off entertainment business), higher populations therefore they can have a bigger fanbase, and a press that loves them and treats them like kings.

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
