Soxtalker strikes back at East Coast ignorance

The author of that article wrote like a typical writer does. He believes something, can't posssibly prove it, so he twists his words and facts around to make an illusion that he's correct.

 

His biggest fault was that he mentioned a 162 game season would correct luck, implying the Red Sox and Yankees were the best in the AL. If you want to go by his wisdom, the correct team won in the AL as the White Sox had 99 wins, better then both Boston and NY and the entire league. But according to his formula, St. Louis should've had it in the bag.

 

162 games corrects it to a certain point. The playoffs shows who can beat top notch teams instead of KC, TB and Pitt.

His respone to ^ would be that the Yankees and Red Sox played in a "harder" division.  You don't even have to ask him to know his response.

 

Well again, the playoffs corrects which divisions really are tougher. That's the point of the playoffs. To see who is the best of the best. The White Sox had Cleveland riding on their ass, a team that just as well could've beat some teams in the playoffs. After NY and Boston, what does the AL East have to offer? 3 sub .500 teams? Real tough.

That's why I said "harder" division.  The AL East will forever be the "hardest" division in baseball, no matter what the facts say.

 

Agreed, and when I get home, this guy will get a response from another "fellow writer."

For four years, I've dealt with the obnoxiousness known as Yanks-Red Sox at Georgetown University in Washington DC.  Despite the Pale Hose victory this fall, the jagbag who wrote the article below really tickled my pickle.  He proved that any stroke can write for a collegiate publication.  His article...

Cheers Marty for outing another ignoramus. Well-written, potent, eloquent, and all-encapsulating of our righteous discontent.

 

Be that as it may, it's taking candy from a baby--Fumelli didn't have much original to say, just regurgitated tall tales from ESPN. Bumpkin easily toppled.
