Did you celebrate last night? Did you party into the wee hours? Did you join in the love fest felt all across Red Sox Nation?
We Sox fans have had a lot to celebrate this month. First we clinched a post season spot. While we had our eyes on a bigger prize, we did not get too out of control for that one. Rightfully so. We clinched the American League East. That was the bigger prize. The bubbly flowed free in the Sox clubhouse that night, and many a fan let their glee free as well. Then came the most recent excuse to go crazy in celebration. It happened last night.
The New York Yankees were eliminated from post season contention.
Yeah, baby! Send those damn Yankees home! Give them their little three inch tall participation trophy and wish them a happy off season. I hope you all go on great vacations as you spend your Yankee fortunes. Don’t let the playoff door hit you on the ass on the way out!
It’s only the second time in the last 19 years that the Yankees failed to make the post season.
And it feels so very good.
Go Red Sox
