I'd like to quote the great Boston-based technology writer Andy Ihnatko here, and I agree with him wholeheartedly:
Quote:
On that subject, I should shoulder some of the blame for my hometown team's post-season performance. "Go, Sox, Go!" I prayed. I now realize that I probably should have been more specific.
I can't be the least bit bitter about our loss. The Red Sox got beat, fair and square, by a team that steadfastly refused to make any mistakes and played inning after inning of flawless baseball. Man alive, did the White Sox deserve to move on to the American League championship series.
Reason Two why I'm not bitter: the Yankees lost. Which to any Red Sox fan is at least 40% as satisfying as a Red Sox win.
