Dear Editor,
These few Red Sox malcontents, these juvenile, overpaid athletes,  have ruined -- in one month -- a great baseball team. It is hard to believe.  Where were the grown-ups?
The owners should simply fire the lazy ungrateful jerks for the  damage done to this historic team and ship them off to Afghanistan to face the  men and women who are doing their duty every single day -- for peanuts compared  to the players' salaries. Let the players stand up and explain to the soldiers  how tough their jobs are, how unfair their owners are.
I grew up in Brooklyn with the Dodgers, but I could almost become  a Yankee fan. Who could root for the Red Sox now?  Thank you, Bob Hohler of the Boston Globe, and thanks to The Eagle for  publishing his article. Let the owners start over.
