Gone East

Apples and oranges.

Ed Cossette, Bambino's Curse:

Since when is it expected that a fan is supposed to love all the sports equally? Since when am I supposed to lock behind the closet door my Red Sox fetish just because it's football season and the Patriots are doing well?

Don't get me wrong, I like Tom Brady and company just fine. I watch the games. I root loudly. And I want very much to see that Super Bowl bling bling again.

But the Patriots are not the Red Sox. Baseball is not football. The two are not on equal ground in my mind, apples and oranges.
