Good Friggin' Riddance
This is long overdue.
Hey, if they bring home the big one, they can act like a bunch of pig-tailed schoolgirls shithoused on Peachtree Schnapps and wine coolers for all I care.
ANAHEIM, Calif. - Johnny Damon officially laid "Cowboy Up" to rest as the Red Sox' identifying slogan prior to the start of their American League Division Series yesterday at Angel Stadium.
With cowboys about as plentiful in New England as surfers are in Nebraska, the Red Sox center fielder said there was a more appropriate way to capture the team's carefree attitude and individuality.
Idiots.
"We are not the cowboys anymore," Damon said. "We are just the idiots . . . We like to have fun and I think that's why this team is liked by so many people out there. We've got the long hair, we've got the corn rows, we've got guys acting like idiots, and I think the fans out there like it."
