I hate it when I'm right

So the Yankees completed a sweep of the Sox last night, just like I predicted. However, I didn't predict that we'd go a span of 31 innings (that's essentially 3.5 games) without scoring a run. I'd like to say that's a testament to Yankee pitching, but it really wasn't. Our offense was atrocious. We had plenty of opportunities to score but no one decided to do shit (3 for 38 with runners in scoring position). Yes there's cause for concern, but our offense will click eventually. We just need people to be healthy so we can have a consistent lineup where everyone knows their roles.

There's no need to worry about the Yankees anymore. The series is over and our chance at the division title is over. A-Rod continues to be "Mr. Regular Season" and I'm sure he'll revert back to "Miss October" when the time comes. Listen, getting swept wasn't a big surprise so if anyone is acting like it was, stop it. I already predicted it anyway. The Yankees were the hottest team in baseball coming in and we were in shambles. Or as the King of Horrible Quotes likes to put it:

“Listen, the Red Sox had our number,” Swisher said, “but we changed cell-phone providers.”

It's okay though. I mean, we can't get any worse, can we? Well, this home series vs. Detroit will tell a lot. If we can take 3 out of 4 then we'll be back on track. The way we've been playing lately makes it seem like 1 out of 4 will be an accomplishment, but whatever. I'm not backing down from my prediction. We're winning the wild card and heading back to the World Series. Stamped it.

Alright, so we have 52 games left and our current record is 62-48. As history has shown, 95 wins will get you into the playoffs, so we gotta go 33-19 the rest of the way. This means that we have to win 63% of our remaining games. Impossible? No. Hard to do? Yes.

Anything is possible.

We have 29 home games left (which means that we have 23 away games) and based on our current home winning percentage (67%), that means we should theoretically win roughly 20 games at home. That leaves us with 13 out of 23 road games that we'd have to win. Is it likely based on our current road winning percentage (46%)? Of course not. But is it feasible? Yes it is.

So in lieu of this challenge that the Red Sox have in front of them, I am bringing back the scene from the movie Major League with my own personal spin.


For every Red Sox win, I will post a picture of a hot chick. It's gonna start off with a hot chick who is fully clothed and the more wins we get, the more scandalous it will be. By the time we get to 33, it's gonna be completely ridiculous. I'm talking about hardcore porn with girls getting penetrated and things like that. Okay, I overexaggerated a little bit. I'm not trying to make this blog NSFW (not safe for work) so it will be kept as tasteful as possible.

I'm not posting nudity on the site itself (but keep in mind, there may be links to it if we get close to our goal). For the record, this isn't supposed to be degrading to women. It's a celebration of all future Red Sox victories and is aimed at the average reader of this site: horny, sports-loving males.


Let the party begin...
