Hello, lifelong Red Sox fan. I wrote a piece about the Red Sox here:

 

Didn't the end of last season make you feel like that 'old time tortured' red sox fan of the past? I wish I could I add something about that awkward Valentine handshake at the end of his press conference--that was priceless.

I am an old Sox fan, and this season was the worst thing that I have witnessed. They were completely inept for an entire month. The worst ever without a close second.

Without a close second? What about the 5-game sweep by the Yankees that basically destroyed the 2006 season?

Nah, that was the beginning of August and it was obvious with all our injuries that the 2006 team was going into a spiral. If you remember, they opened that 5 game series with a day night doubleheader and The Ulimate Loser Jason Johnson started game 1. I believe that he still has the worst career W-L record of any starting pitcher. The 2006 series was painful, but it essentially happened in the middle of the season. I don't think it would crack my top 5.
