“It was great years in Boston. One bad half-year doesn’t take away from all the great years I had there and all the good things I’ve been able to do along the way and accomplish as a team, as an individual. It was great.”

Listen, "Red Sox" is a stylized form of "Red Socks", no? Can't he just always be a Boston Red Sock?

Kevin Youkilis says he’ll always be a Boston Red Sox

Sok. Or Soq. Stylized!

This is just stuff that folks say to make the fans happy.

Just coincidence, but the Yankees have acquired a lot of players who won the championship with the Sox in the past few years: Bellhorn, Damon, Youkilis, Minkteiceveavwz, Lowe, Embree, Myers, and Hinske.

There's just no way to say it right, is there? "He's a Red Sox" is obviously wrong, while "He's a Red Sock" just sounds stupid.

Or should I say, Tony from the Bronx.

“To negate all the years I played for the Boston Red Sox and all the tradition, you look at all the stuff I have piled up at my house, to say I’d just throw it out the window, that’s not true,” Youkilis said. “I’ll always be a Red Sock.”

Okajima.

He did not win a ring with the Sox but I found it curious that the Yankees picked up Darnell McDonald immediately after he was released.

On a positive note, he looks like much less of a ass now that he's clean shaven.

Still, without the goatee you'll get to see the sweat pouring off his red face much more clearly. I hope you have high def.

Despite more available players, the only ones going the other way from the recent Yankees champions are Wells, Mendoza, and Cone. And I guess Lowell counts too.

edit: forgot Aceves. I guess not as lopsided as I thought.
