The next Red Sox drama series (months after that thing with the Orioles) continues with the political uniform controversy. I love how the Red Sox wore patriotic-themed uniforms while playing on Canada Day in Toronto and everyone just LOST THEIR MINDS. Okay, one: MLB always does this for certain holiday weekends. Two: All MLB teams are wearing them, even the ones not playing Toronto this weekend. This was not a unique Red Sox decision. Three: It's not our fault that Canada Day and Independence Day fall within days of each other, nor is it our fault that we are playing in Toronto. It makes me sad to see people using the team Facebook pages to attack each other and their countries.
Can we just stop being offended so easily, get the facts first, and enjoy baseball? Hmm, I smell a blog post coming on...*shamelessly plugs sports blog, which appears in my signature*
