Goodbye Carl Crawford contest!

You know, it's sad but being a local guy, I always liked Carl and Beckett too. Sorry they didn't work out for all the Boston fans. But I'll follow their careers all the way anyhow.

This trade makes me sad. So much potential.

It's rather unfortunate that Los Angeles gave an arm and a leg to get Crawford... They should have just offered the leg because Crawford still needs an arm.

Did we forget our own post about players who crapped out at age 30....he's there now.

Joke Time

The day after Carl Crawford was traded he was sitting in the hotel room in Los Angeles when a letter was delivered. He was so thrilled to actually get his first fan mail in two years that he eagerly ripped it open and started reading. It was from a young man named Chuck and he could tell by some ink smears that the poor kid had been crying. He wrote to tell Carl how much he loved watching him play for the Red Sox and how he thought he was the greatest thing to happen to them for several year and would miss him. In the letter he even said that he heard about how people were complaining about his huge contract and told Carl he thought he deserved more. As he got to the end of the letter and his heart filled with pride he flipped the page to see the picture of Chuck. It was a picture of a tranny wearing a Yankees cap with his two middle fingers extended. Disgusted Carl tried the throw the letter in the trash but failed and was put on the DL for another 6 weeks.

Ok....lame

I love the idea of a tranny Yankee fan named Chuck. It fits my mental image of many Yankees fans, so you win!
