Take these broken wings and give up first place....

The Red Sox suffered a disappointing loss yesterday. And it's that part in the season when we long time fans succumb to anxiety, depression, and rage. It's the latter half of the season, we picked up exactly nothing in the way of pitching before the deadline, the heart and soul of the team is due to be out for at least a month. The Hated Ones picked up Abreu and Lidle for a pittance.... need I go on?

But, we're not going to self-flagellate quite yet. Because we Red Sox fans do indeed find solace in little distractions. Observe (note that the voices you are hearing are those of my beloved NESN announcers Don Orsillo and former Red Sox Jerry Remy... Jerry's the one with the thick NE accent):

well the Phillies followed the tried and true Philadelphia tradition of trading a dollar for two pennies, 'cause two is more than one.
