Oh no! Season's over! Boston re-signed Okajima!

All is lost! Abandon hope! Spare the children! We might as well start blogging about quilts. 

Start spreadin' the blues. Those rich, moneybag Redsocks -- already better than the '27 Yankees and the Eagles during their "Hotel California" glory years -- just re-buttoned the pre-eminent LH Japanese hurler over age 35... Mr. Yankee-Killer-San himself -- Hideki "Okie" Okamija.

Mercy, please! Call off your dogs, O brainwave masters, O genetically superior people of Boston. We surrender. We cannot compete. We cannot cope. It looks like a 162-0 season for you.

With Dice K and Iwo Jima, well, you just bought yourselves a ring. Look at the ERA chart over the last four years. Did the '27 Yankees have a Scott Proctor? Everybody needs one. We should not even try for the Wild Card. What's the use! We should not even try to knock out their starters. They'll only bring in Okajima, and that will be that.
