TRAITOR!

As if I didn't expect it to happen, my jaw dropped to the table when I saw the news flash on ESPN last night. "Damon signs with Yankees."

Johnny Damon was one of the most beloved members of the '04 Champion Red Sox team. Next year however, he will be dressing in pinstripes and playing for the other team. He isn't the first former Sox to switch sides on us. Clemens, Boggs, Gordon, and many more have spat on the Red Sox nation to make more money in New York. I hope he receives the same greeting at Fenway as all of these other selfish bastards have.

One sweet nugget of redemption coming our way lies in the hands of The Boss. He runs a tight ship in the Bronx and if history repeats itself, Damon will have to visit the barber before next April. Hopefully the curse of Samson will fall on you.
