A Red Sox fan criticizing a Yankee fan for high payroll. Pot meet kettle. This is exactly why I got tired of Boston after they won in 2004. They started going around thinking they were somehow different from the Yankees. Both teams outspend every other team in the league. The fact that the Yankees take it a couple of steps further doesn't mean the Sox aren't spending as much as they can.
As for Papelbon, you can't be perfect forever. He threw 26 scoreless postseason innings before he finally coughed one up. Even Mariano Rivera lost a playoff game.
