Talking Baseball

I'm going to keep this short. Yesterday, there was a bit of a dust-up around these parts. Here's what I would like to see.

Please do:

• "Hate" the Red Sox in the way that fans of one professional team "hate" teams from other areas. That is, as a mode of emotional escapism that has basically nothing to do with actual hate. I hate them too. They're awful. I hope they lose all of their games and that David Ortiz tests positive for steroids, and that after serving a suspension, he never gets another extra-base hit because his arms have shriveled up to the size of pencils.
• Talk about baseball.
• Engage with in a friendly if occasionally antagonistic manner any opposing fans who come to DRaysBay to debate baseball. If they are unwilling to do the same, flag their comment, and if a mod doesn't deal with it quickly, tweet me (@dog_whelk), and I will immediately either ask them to talk baseball or leave.
