Red Sox Arrive to Remind Cubs Who's Left Holding Curse Now:

"'Watching the Red Sox win was a very weird experience. It was like having a neighbor win the lottery. At first you're really happy for them because it couldn't happen to a better guy. And then you realize that he'll move into a bigger house in another neighborhood and you never had anything in common with him in the first place and he was really a big jerk. I mean, the Red Sox' celebrity mascot is Ben Affleck. Doesn't that tell you enough?"
