Every year around this time we get the same emails from idiots. Hey Pres why don’t you blog about the Red Sox every second of every day? I thought this was a hardcore Sports website. I thought you were like WEEI or Sons of Sam Horn where all you do is sit around all day and talk about every little fucking detail and blow everything out of proportion for 162 games a year because you have no life. Stop partying at Stoolapalooza with smoking hot college chicks and watch every second of April baseball god damn it!

Well newflash. That’s not me. That’s not the Stool. Never has been never will be. I’ll watch American Idol over April Sox games every day of the week and twice on Sunday. I know that makes some people hate me, but I don’t care. Just shut your mouth and keep reading. Bottomline is that baseball is just too long of a season to get all worked up on game 13.   Don’t get me wrong I still keep up to date and obviously know what’s happening, but I just don’t base my life around it. You can’t. Only nutbags do that.

Now having said all that this season is getting fucking hot fast huh? Like even guys like me who don’t really start paying serious attention till after the allstar break are starting to be like what the fuck? 5 Straight losses? 1-6 at home? And that wouldn’t even bother me if it weren’t for the fact that both the Drays and the Yankees are off to torrid starts. That’s the scary part. Like sure we’re playing like dog mess right now, but anybody who doesn’t think the Sox are still going to win 90 wins or so is an idiot. Our pitching is just too good. Everything always equals out in baseball and we have too many proven veterans who when it’s all said and done will get their numbers just like they do every year. It’s just that this isn’t your Grandparent’s AL East anymore. Tampa is for real now so it’s not like 90 wins is an automatic playoff berth anymore. So here I am in fucking April starting to scoreboard watch.   It sucks.   That’s not how baseball is meant to be enjoyed. It’s not supposed to be a 162 game pressure cooker. You’re supposed to enjoy the weather, have some beers and just relax.   Now I can’t do that and I’m bullshit.    

 

Do people feel the same way I do think I’m just falling into the Boston media trap of overreacting to everything?

Vote 1 for even non psycho Red Sox fans be very worried right now and 10 for it’s fucking April bro relax.
