My how the tables have turned.
The Boston Red Sox entered 2011 as the favorite to win the American League and were destined to face the Phillies in the World Series. That obviously didn’t happen as the Baltimore Orioles bounced them from postseason contention in the biggest collapse in baseball history.
Since then things have spiraled out of control in Boston. A new manager and GM have taken over, a locker room scandal has been the talk of the offseason and the Red Sox find themselves sitting in last place in the AL East, 7.5 games back from the first place Rays and Orioles.
Last night at Fenway Park a new low was reached as a fan was spotted behind home plate wearing a bag on his head. The #paperbagman hashtag exploded on Twitter and became the talk of the night in Boston.
Boston fell to Cleveland 8-3 and Josh Beckett pitched just 2.1 innings surrendering seven hits and seven earned runs.
Couldn’t happen to a better team or a better fanbase than the “Dicky Eklunds” of Boston. Didn’t some of those bandwagon clowns used to post here? Where’d they go? One idiot said that “Beckett was an old school type player”, I’d love to hear from that idiot now.
This “Eklund” was even too dumb to cut the face out of the bag right-side-up.
Moron.
I am from Boston, and am a Sox fan, and finally know what it is like to be a fan of the Orioles.
By the way, they guy didn’t cut out the face of the bag wrong…he cut a hole on the top of the bag for his hat to go through, in order to keep the bag on his head.
Al,
Your club goes 86 years without winning a championship and you’re going to bust on the Orioles?
Typical Dicky Eklund.
You sound like a pro when it comes to wearing bags on your head. Is that how you guys did it up there in the 20’s, the 30’s, the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s when you never won a series?
Looks like Spy trying to hide his identity and it’s working. It may also be the bag the Intimidator uses on Spy’s girlfriend Natasha.
Big Al, you sure that ain’t a “Glory Hole” in that bag? Way it’s going for you RedSox fans you may want to put a plastic bag on your head…
