I used to feel as you do. I just couldn't understand why apparently intelligent adults would get so worked up over sports. I guess I still feel that way to some extent, but I number enough members of Red Sox Nation among my nearest and dearest now that I find their crazy love charming and adorable.

Having observed other Red Sox fans here, I can tell you that I'm convinced that as far as JK is concerned, no way is it an act just for voters, you better believe it. I don't know the first thing about baseball and couldn't care less, but I've learned to accept that this really is in people's blood. If you lived here and saw the people on the subway of every conceivable age, gender and race proudly wearing their Red Sox caps and sweatshirts, you might end up feeling the same way I do. Or not.
