Way to go Red Sox, you swept the Rockies like everyone expected you to.  They should rename the ALCS the World Series and the World Series should be called “the National League sucks but we will play anyways just for fun.”  In recent years the ALCS has been much more entertaining than the World Series (except 2001) and, yes, the NL’ers have won a few lucky Championships here and there (3 in the last 10 years) but nobody’s noticed, nobody cared, and nobody watched.  The National League winner should play Japan’s winner in an October series and the winner of that should have to cook dinner for the American league winner on a Food Network special hosted by Alton Brown.  Bento boxes for everyone because the National League sucks.

Todd’s Take 

What the F? is with Arod and his eigth inning opt out announcement in the final game of the World Series?  I mean cmon were you neglected as a child? Or by your wife?  Maybe you can’t get it up like Ditka, or have a teeny little weeny from the roids, like Barry.  You had your chance with the Yankees.  But nobody is going to give you $30 million a year now because you are a whiny little bitch and nobody wants to pay $30 million a year for a whiny little bitch.  You could get Milton Bradley for a lot less.  And Arod, stop doing that stupid scrunched up kissing thing with your mouth, it’s really not flattering.
