The true Sox fans will keep their mouths shut until a title is secure. Surely three quarters of a century of futility would teach at least some lessons.

Thank you for this post.....I needed the distraction after hearing about another local kid passing defending us all.
To be a true Sox fan isn't about running to the front before July 4th singing the praises of Gonzales and Crawford though solid additions long needed.
True Sox fans can tell you where they were when Dent hit his wall ball or Luis A. fell down rounding third as easily as where they ate the night Fisk hit the foul pole or the four nights in 2004.
They have bled baseball 12 months a year for generations whether they win, lose or worse for well over a century. You can always spot a phony when .326, 44, 121 don't mean anything to someone who wears the blue cap with the Red "B" or they can't tell you who noodle arm Jose Tartabull threw out without a google search in the first game of an ole' fashioned Sunday twin in '67 when they were actually scheduled that way.
Though their fans refused to believe success was possible til the second one in 2007, that breed has given way to quiet satisfaction and the option to remind Yankee fans when necessary that although they have more than enough World Series victories to justify their devotion they also possess the worst loss in professional sports should they get too far out of hand.
As said in this thread prior.......game on dude!
