Merry Christmas at Fenway on Saturday. <\/p>\n
Select single-game tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Saturday, as well. Automated web pages are standing by. <\/p>\n
Me thinks the virtual waiting room will like the drive-thru at Dunks at 3 in the morning. A quick in-and-out. <\/p>\n
The Red Sox have been very naughty this year. <\/p>\n
Much like the Grinch, they \"stink, stank, stunk.\" <\/p>\n
They were moving away from Santa's \"Nice\" list even before the 2014 season began. They discounted the value and worth of Jon Lester early and often. They mocked the Yankees and others for spending wildly, or as some may say, paying market value for players. They snookered us all into thinking they would be a playoff team for the second straight year. <\/p>\n
Just back up the coal truck to Yawkey Way. <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, we loaded up on 2013 World Series championship swag and 2014 tickets. <\/p>\n
Ho-Ho-Hosed. <\/p>\n
Things got far worse-than-expected once the games began. The team quickly found last place and stayed there for pretty much the entire season. State Run Media trumpeted each rare, coveted victory as the long-awaited \"turnaround\" that would right the Ship of Sox. <\/p>\n
