How I learned to stop worrying & love the Sox

Answer

Thanks for following me. I really like your Red Sox tumblr and its the best Red Sox blog I've seen in awhile. I'm having a love/hate relationship right now, especially after that 11-0 game against the sucky Angels! That was really pathetic!

Thanks for the note. It’s been a tough season, but I’m hopeful. Actually going to NY to see them play the Yankees this weekend.

Several healthcare professionals have warned that I'll have a heart-attack unless I seek help for my psychotic hatred of pro sports.

As such, since I work less than one block from Fenway Park, I decided that the only remedy is all-out assimilation. During the 2010 season I hit 43 home games, and have since been referring to the Sox as "we" and engaging in all sorts of other foreign rituals.

Stick with me through my struggle to become a Sox fan, as I force-chug hella beer to numb myself like strippers do before they hit the pole. This is no joke. This is for survival, and for my book, "How I Learned to Stop Worrying & Love the Sox," which drops in 2012.
