The Boston Red Sox Media Resets The Barometer For Crazy, Again

Loyal folks who empty their pockets year after year in support of this team are never going to understand or get over this. Players, media members and front office folks can talk about the "baseball culture,’’ and explain that there was nothing extraordinary about what the Sox pitchers were doing, but nobody’s going to buy it.

We applaud Lester for coming forward. Unfortunately, his statements are only going to amplify the noise.

↵Yep: The Red Sox are basically the most corrupt team in the history of baseball and it was unforgivable and fans will remember this for eternity and oh man, isn’t it unfortunate that the noise keeps getting amplified?

↵SAVOR THE CRAZY, Y’ALL.
