“Fucking Yankees,” said Marshfield, MA resident and longtime Red Sox fan Lawrence Broberg, echoing the sentiments of thousands of men and woman across the nation. “Every year. Every goddamn year.”

I remember Joy explaining to me who Roger Clemens was when he got a standing ovation as a Yankee at Fenway after announcing his “retirement” in 2003. Four years later, he’s back with the Yankees again! S’gonna make the next Sox/Yankees series all the sweeter!
