ESPN: The Redsock Revolving Door

With Bobby Valentine named Redsock manager, it's time again to see ESPN for what it is: A propaganda/lobbyist front for the Redsock Nation.

Even though Bristol, Connecticut, should be a halfway point between the Yankees and Redsocks, the ESPN group is merely a flag planted in the ground for the Fenway flock. Look in the booth: There's Nomar Garciaparra, Orel Hershieser, Joe Morgan, Curt Schilling...

Yankee haters, all.
We have - what? - Aaron Boone and Orestes Destrade: cannon fodder against the relentless torrent of anti-Yankee propaganda.

ESPN does for the Redsocks what Fox News does for the Republican Party -- it gives high-profile employment to the bozos who think they should be running the whole shebang.

Bobby Valentine is Newt Gingrich.

Nomar is Sarah Palin.

I'm almost ready to start rooting for Bernie Fine.
