Johnny and the Red Sox

I have been avoiding even the thought of Johnny Damon becoming a Yankee. If people mention it, I tune it out. I see articles about it and just don't read them. Now, when I see captions saying the Yankees are offering 5 years and the Red Sox are only offering 4, I pay attention.

The thought of losing yet another player to the Yankees makes me ill. Bellhorn was my FAVORITE and now he plays for NY. Embree, didn't really care for him but it's still weird, right. I can deal with those two leaving (and really, Arroyo had surpassed Bellhorn on the favorites list by then, anyway). But Damon? That I could never deal with.

How he can even consider it is beyond me. I don't really think it will happen. Didn't he say at one point that he didn't want to be a Yankee? Even if I made that up, I'm still going to believe it. The whole team is being torn apart, little by little, and it's making me really mad.

AND as if this isn't bad enough--Virginia apparently doesn't like Sports Illustrated or something and no stores here had the Tom Brady issue. It's like a conspiracy to keep me from getting it. Albany only had issues from the current week, and Richmond only has issues from next week. Problems everywhere, I know.
