This is it, boys and girls, the start of the ALCS. Those who root for teams who are playing golf or eating themselves into a stupor will look for excuses to put the Sox down. They will talk about the "superiority" of Tigers pitching. They will talk about Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder. They will talk and talk and talk. All of that talk has meant jack squat so far since the Sox have overcome absolutely every obstacle placed in front of them so far. Only 69 wins last season? Fuck that, let's lead the league this year! Two closers down? Fuck that, we got Koji. Buchholz out three months? Who cares, let's keep having excellent starting pitching AND trade for Jake Peavy.
In other words, all the Red Sox do is win........in light of this:
WIN!
