Go, Red Sox!

“Dear Casual Baseball Fan,
“I don’t like you. Casual is for slacks.
“It is time for you to pick a postseason team, throw your love behind that team, and live and die with its every pitch … to the point that you get sharp, clenching chest pains when Scott Williamson walks the first two batters in the ninth inning of a one-run game, and you yell, “Damn it!” at a decibel level much higher than you’d intended, and your girlfriend starts getting scared, and now she’s looking at you like she’s an 8-year-old whose parents are fighting.
“Yeah, that’s where you want to be,” writes Seth Stevenson in Slate.
