Tommy has had a tough road, knocking off Fire and... ok, he had 1 tough fight and a murgen. And the poor guy never got a proper painting. I withstood the irony of falling to AA's wife and then took out BtR in a fight I thought I'd lose. So how goes it now as NY and Boston lock up? Will the fight wage with the bitterness and anger we've discussed plenty of sports over the years? Will you all hold it against me that I bailed on this thing? Will I draw Tommy a painting to satisfy him?

You won't. Because you hate me.

[Tommy]

Wow. Why not vote for Microsoft and Wal-Mart while you're at it?

Seriously, this is the "Should I quit being a Jets Fan?" guy. Pun's House makes me sad.

[Moosehead Jack]

gotta vote Sox over Yanks!

[Batman]

Grumpy, natch.

[Byrntrigan]

Tommy is a self made man. Lucky is a bitter man.

But I like Lucky's sense of humor and we share similar feelings on differing subjects such as Mikey's job issue and he taught me the difference between descent and decent!

[Mikey]

Aw man... this is tough. Both of you have your moments where I want to jump thru the computer, grab you by the shoulders, shake you violently, and scream at you.

And other times, I think you're great. Again, this is tough.

[creepy]

I jumped on the Tommy bandwagon a while back. With the exception to his sports loyalties, I now think Tommy is one of the greatest dudes around here.

But of the very few who beat him out, Lucky is one of 'em. Sorry, Tommy.

Understandable. I'm kind of surprised it's this close.

I voted for Tommy.

Lets just say it had something to do with the fact that there's no thread here labeled, "Should I ditch the Red Sox".

Oh. Snap.

[Lucky]

You were endorsed by Skids.

I'm ok with that.

[DevSop]

Seriously, I may have to change my vote to Lucky now. If I find out Byrne voted for you Tommy, you're done.

This was a painful choice for me. Tommy represents MA fandom so well, but Lucky has been a mainstay of OO and PH for so long and he's posted so many great links, plus he's the butt of so many jokes in the sports thread, that I had to vote for the humorless Yankees fan. I will make up for it by spamming the baseball thread with Gay-Rod, A-Roid, and A-Fraud posts this summer.

Wow. That one hurt, OBJ.

I'll throw in a lot of praise for Joe Morgan and endorse RBI as the greatest stat.

Considering you're the deciding vote right now? Really hurts. Turn in your Patriots/Red Sox card please.

[Habs]

it is now tied.

[Deleted]

It is now untied.

[punk/core]

You guys are two of my favorites. I feel like Sophie's Choice here.

[Outback Frito Pendejo]

OK, I couldn't vote against Tommy's jerseys (well, except maybe Dineen who I never cared about) so this one is up for grabs again. The ghost of Len Bias was starting to haunt me. He was threatening to bring Reggie Lewis with him.

[Lucky]

I can't believe you folded to Tommy's transparent begging and guilt. I know you're a stronger and wiser man than that. He expects you to vote blindly based on team uniform. But you and I know what someone like that is. A mindless homer.

I was on the fence about this one. Now, I'm not.

[Demko]

I just realized that Lucky's been much nicer to me over the past year. So I'll tip the scales for him, just this once.

[creepy]

Bryne and I currently hold his ire. But I'm trying Lucky. I'm trying real hard.
