FoxSports: Eric Bosart, of Boston, poses behind a burning New York Yankees cap outside Fenway Park in Boston, Sunday, Oct. 2, 2005. Inside the park, the Boston Red Sox were playing the Yankees. The Red Sox clinched the AL Wild Card by virtue of a loss by the Cleveland Indians.

Someone is pretty freakin’ excited about winning the wild card… especially since they were once in first place by 5.5 games… and they only got the wild card berth because another team fell apart… erm. I dunno that I’d be that proud. Ya know, that my team sucked out a playoff position on the last day of the season through no action of their own.

Look at the Padres: their fans are pretty embarrassed that they took their division with a barely .500 average, but, well, I guess there’s no humility in Bean Town.
