"We always tease him and he teases back. Even he said the Sox did well and there's still next year. He was very gracious."
"We asked him if he could root for the Sox in the WS, he thought about it a second and said, "No, I just can't!". :) "
LOL..I know a Yankee fan that would say the same thing...Except it would be a cold day in Hell before he complimented the Sox!!!!!!
I've never once rooted for the Yankees. I try to convey the depth of the rivalry by saying I was glad they lost to the D'Backs in 2001 even though it was right after 9/11.
