HOT LESBIAN ACTION!!!

Every year around this time when Boston is no longer in the playoffs and the Yankees are, you hear the same thing. "The Yankees won because they have all of the money!" I'll admit, the Yankees have the highest payroll, but the Red Sox could've beaten us. Heck, last year, the Angels beat us! In the first round! The point is, you can win without a big payroll. So now I give to you, the 3 ways the Red Sox could have beaten the Yankees WITHOUT any more money.

1. Had better pitching.
If the Red Sox didn't spend all of their money on their offensive players, and used some of it towards pitching it's possible they could've won with DECENT pitching. Throughout the season the Red Sox had ONE pitcher that guaranteed them a quality start every time he went out. They didn't have any other pitchers that could regularly play well. And also, when Pedro did pitch well, their bullpen would lose then game. If they had gotten another mediocre starter and told their bullpen to pitch well in the regular season (more on this later), they could've ended up in first in the AL East, thus giving them homefield advantage.

2. Ask their batters not to choke in the playoffs
During the season, Bostons hitting was better than the Yankees. But once they hit the ALCS, the main hitters mysteriously started to suck. Nomar didn't get any hits until the 6th game, Ortiz had that one HR in Game one or something, and Manny was batting pretty poorly. They had to rely on Trot Nixon to keep them in every game. You have to perform in the regular season and the postseason to do well here.

3. Tell their manager not to be incredibly stupid
I'll admit Grady Little managed well, UNTIL the 8th inning of the 7th game. With two runners in scoring position, up 5-3 and Pedro clearly being shelled pitch after pitch, Little approachs his Ace pitcher on the mound and asks Pedro if he wants to pitch. Asking your ace pitcher if he wants to pitch in a clutch spot is like asking a teenage boy if he wants to play video games. The answer is going to be "yes". Instead of going to the bullpen which was stellar in the postseason, oddly enough, he sticks with his best pitcher who HAS NOT played well in the playoffs. The next batter, Jorge Posada, hits a two run double tying the game. THEN Little goes to his bullpen which finishes off the inning without anymore hits.

If the Red Sox had done those 3 things last season, they would've won. So shut it Red Sox fans. If you want your team to have more money, do what the rest of us do. BUY STUFF FROM THEM.
