Baseball Journalism 101

Right now, the outlines of the same two, completely contradictory articles are be being polished off by every baseball writer in America. The result of tonight's game will determine which will appear in tomorrow's paper. The theme of the first article is that the Red Sox won because they are battle tested and the Rays are a bunch of shook tenderfoots. The other asserts that the Rays won because were just too damn young to understand the magnitude of a Game 7. There will be just as much steam wafting off either journalistic turd, depending on which rolls off the presses tomorrow morning.

Man, I thought for sure w/ signings of Sabathia, Burnett, KRod, & Putz, I would get an article! Way to keep this one going, Triola.

I think I'll call this a slightly below average column.
