Much like Kreese in the Karate Kid, I want no mercy tonight. (SawxBlog Illustration)
Kreese: What do we study here?
Boston Red Sox: THE WAY OF THE BAT SIR.
Kreese: And what is that way?
Boston Red Sox: STRIKE FIRST. STRIKE HARD. NO MERCY SIR.
Kreese: I can't hear you.
Boston Red Sox: STRIKE FIRST. STRIKE HARD. NO MERCY SIR.

I honestly don't care too much about the Yankees right now. I do like the fact that we're on the verge of winning the World Series and they're in quite a bit of disarray, but like I said, this is about the Red Sox right now.
Only a little over 4 hours left...

I congratulate the Boston Red Sox on their successful acquisition of the 2007 World Series.
In related business news, the Dow was up 134 points on Friday, with tech stocks on the rise. Shares in Reebok, Nike, Rawlings, Wilson, Mizuno, and the Coca-Cola Company are expected to fall this week after the most boring postseason ever.

Actually, seriously. Congrats. That's some team. They'll be good for awhile. Don't let anybody guilt you.

Dig the pic and feel your pain, but why is "Johnny" misspelled? Did I miss something?

Just realized this is from 2 years ago. My bad. My colleague brought it to my attention. Thought it was recent. Johnny is still misspelled.
