This is kind of uncharted territory for us. Has a team ever had such high expectations after an off-season? I guess I'm just not comfortable with everyone and their newly adopted Japanese sister to be picking us to win the AL. I get the feeling that something fishy is going on out there, like they don't really mean it and they just want get my hopes up. It's like if someone tells me I'm funny and that this blog is great. I know they're just trying to get a reaction out of me and play me like a fiddle, so I fake a smile but deep down I'd like to physically assault every part of their face then let Donahue play around with their butthole. This post has taken a weird turn that I didn't plan on but all I'm trying to say is I don't like everybody picking us to rule the world even though it's inevitable. I mean you don't get back Pedroia, Youk, Jacoby from injury and then add Gonzo and Crawford and not win a ring. Just doesn't happen. Oh, we also have the future Cy-young in Jonny Lester. Gonna be a fun season. Buckle up, bitch. Yeah I meant to say bitch and not bitches. I'm talking to you, you fucking ugly bitch with the bangs and big earrings.
