‘Like a pack of starving dogs let loose in a vat full of pork chops’: That’s how WaPo described the game and the post-game celebration after last night’s playoff clincher. Here’s the NYT take on the little party that merely hints at what will happen if they ever win the big one. ... The Sox have been in the postseason only 10 times since 1918 -- and Tim Wakefield has been in four of them. Obvious best quote of the night from the same tidbits article: "Can you imagine if we actually won something?" Other good quotes (match ‘em up to the speaker before reading, if you want): “There were times they could have shot us and they didn't.” And: "Instead of telling me, 'You suck,' they were telling me, 'Good job,' which is always nice." ... Some feel bliss at times like these, but Gerry Callahan, like a good Bostonian, thinks revenge: HBO, you suck.
