A pox on both yer houses!

Tainted Bill brings the joyous news that two of my least favorite groups are in a panicky snit: the Democrats, who now have to contest New Jersey, and the Yankees, who are having to contest the American League East.

My answer to them both: neener!

UPDATE: Blackfive has perhaps the weirdest twist on the Sox season so far...

UPDATE DEUX: Captain's Quarters with the tick-tock of the Kerry Meltdown from the Boston Globe

UPDATE TROIS: Irish Elk has the scoop on the Royal Rooters, perhaps even more bizarre than the story about the Babe's house above.

I think that story has only response: ATTENTION RED SOX FANS: I, STEVE THE LLAMABUTCHER, AM THE SOURCE OF THE "CURSE" AGAINST YOUR TEAM. YOU WILL NEVER WIN THE WORLD SERIES UNLESS YOU SEND ME UNMARKED BOXES OF RICE-A-RONI, THE SAN FRANCISCO TREAT. AND $20 BILLS. LOTS OF THEM.

SEND THEM NOW, OR YOUR TEAM GETS IT! ENJOY THE POST-SEASON, SUCKERS!

Hey, a fella can try, can't he?
