Being a Boston Fan is not bad.
It is an exercise in humility, patience, and a belief in the idea if you support something that you really, really believe is good and right someday you will be rewarded for your loyalty.
It is also a lesson in the absurdity of curses and that egregious mistakes of the past can be overcome by smart management.
The grit of Schilling, the heart of Wakefield are only outshined by the clutchedness (my term) of Ortiz, the 2005 MVP. That's right the MVP. The tiebreak, is, get this, fielding percentage. Ortiz 0.976, the ball swatting cheaterof '04, 0.971. Who says Papi can't field?
Finally, if you spend the second most, you can still buy a championship.
I'm dumb but I'm not stupid.
