This week I was at an establishment in NY where someone noticed my Sox cap and said they're hanging in there, even with all the injuries. I noted that Arizona made the World Series last year with 84 wins, so who knows. An old guy in a Yankees cap behind me laughed and mocked, "Ya, keep dreaming."
I replied, "Ya, and the Yankees are always good the first two months of the year." He shut right up.
