Our vision for this Web site is to shows the nation how beautiful and sexy the ladies of Red Sox Nation are. We offer the following analogy: Sexy Sox Girls are to Red Sox Nation as Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issues are to Sports.
The best part - it's democratic. Viewers rate candidates based on a scale of five red socks, with five socks being the creme de la creme. The site also requires applicants to disclose their favorite players, beaches, and bars they patronize. That’s key, as now those viewing the photos will know where to go. And you know they’ve got a chance. There’s always a chance.
Look, far be it from me to criticize what gets other people's rocks off. Hell, I'm the one that tried to explain to you people how a good basebrawl can act as an aphrodesiac. (And it can, my friends. Ohhh, it can.) but this? Makes me six different kinds of angry, and all those kinds are violent.
It's a site. Where women post pictures. Of themselves. Scantily clad. In Red Sox gear. And then they're rated. According to their hotness.
I want to set this site on fire. it's not bad enough that it's a website set up so that insecure women needing to show off their goodies to get the approval of others can post poorly lit images of themselves in allegedly provocative poses. Oh, no. They had to go and bring the Red Sox into it.
Because of course it's not bad enough that if I try to buy a jersey that fits my (ample, thank you) tits and doesn't hang on me like a dress, I'm stuck with some kind of hot pink or powder blue monstrosity. Of course it's not bad enough that I constantly have to defend my knowledge of the game simply as a result of possessing said tits. No, no. Now, chicks in baseball gear is some kind of messed up excuse for ogling, and I am pissed right the hell off.
Look, I get it. Wanting to be pretty doesn't make you less of a fan. That's fine. I think you're probably kind of nuts for putting on full makeup and straightening your hair to go sit up in the 400 level, but whatever. I don't get it, but I'm not judging.
This? This I'm judging. Look, you want to show your tits off on the internet? Go ahead. Have a party. They're your goodies, do with them as you please. But the second something like this, a 'rate the chick in the Sox jersey' site starts up? The rest of are being dragged in, unwittingly, and some of us want no part in that.
In conclusion: I hate you. And because I'm too mad about this whole stupid site to post a picture generally reflective of the content of this post, you're getting Jonathan Papelbon in a kilt, to make me feel better.

A++++++ WOULD HIT AGAIN
(the Sox girls with a shovel to the face, Papelbon in the more traditional "I'd hit it" fashion)
Oh, look, this monstrosity is uniting Yankee fans and Red Sox fans, because I happen to think that a shovel to the face for all concerned is an excellent idea.
Also, lust after your own team. (/obligatory bitching)
Another problem you left out is that these women are encouraged to pretty much declare open season on themselves, sex-wise, with the bars and beaches thing.
To the internets at large.
Because there's NO WAY that ends in roofies and date rape and "she asked for it" or just good ole' fashioned hassling.
Not to mention, there's probably no safeguard preventing people from posting other people's pictures, including pictures taken with not intent to be hot. (As happened all the time at amihotornot.com etc.)
Is it bad that I am less concerned about the general boobishness of it all than the fact that some of them can't even spell PUPPIES right, or express in a coherent sentence that Rhode Island has no good bars?
PUPPIES, Mags. My five year old niece can spell that, and she doesn't even know how to read.
We offer the following analogy: Sexy Sox Girls are to Red Sox Nation as Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issues are to Sports.
What, completely irrelevant? I mean, really. Who cares about a yearly issue of scantily clad women when you can watch porn for free daily on the internets? Am I right?
i. just. can't. deal.
that is all.
Oh man, this makes me want to hurl. I HATE this shit. I swear this all related to Bill Simmons saying in a column last year that before 2004 there were no "hot" girls who were Red Sox fans.
The fact this site is requiring women to post where they can be found is just all kinds of disturbing. And don't get me started on the "rating" aspect of this.
God, that site just needs to be killed with fire.
Stuff like this gives this blog and its writers a bad name. This is why I meet the Comcast guy and he's shocked that I:
A) am pretty
B) have large boobs
C) have the digital sports package
D) can discuss the advantages/disadvantages of the half-court offense in the NBA for a good 5 minutes
E) am not a lesbian
Fuck fangirls, for serious.
