the image of cashman in the santa hat singing songs from Rent is sure to make me laugh at an inappropriate time tomorrow when i think of it again.
The Sex and the City analogy is PERFECT.
Also, Carrie was a stupid whore for letting Aidan go. This can not be said enough.
The thing is that real Red Sox fans have been down this road before. Quite recently, in fact. In 2002, we were 40-17 and then interleague started and the whole team went "OMG, WHAT TEH FUCK IS THE NL? PITCHERS HAVE TO HIT AND THAT IS SO SCARY AND OMG OH NOZ!!1! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!11!! I WILL NOW ROLL OVER AND DIE". We finished that season with like 92 or 93 wins and out of the playoffs.
And then in like 2004, though we finished like 45-15 and won the WS, we still spent a good three months playing .500 baseball.
And then last year we were in first by like 5 games at the trade deadline and our only real injury was Wake with a freaking broken rib. And then, I don't know, the entire team become jealous of his golf tan or some shit and before you know it, Manny has a knee issue, Ortiz has as heart issue, Tek broke his knee, Dougie broke something, Gonzalez pulled a few ribs, Coco was all scuffling and still hurt, Trot was on the DL, Jon Lester got cancer, Javier Lopez was the name of our everyday catcher and it turns out he's terrified of actually catching baseballs.
I could cite more examples, but this is long enough already. I'll only feel safe with this lead when it 9 games before the season ends and we still have a 10 game lead.
