Red Sox and their fans
They think they're all holier than thou because they finally won a world series. Big Deal, even the Cincinnati Reds have won a couple

1. Hey! Enough about the Reds!
I grew up in Ohio during the time of the Big Red Machine!

2. We are holier than thou
With the World Series Champion Boston Red Sox and Superbowl Champs New England Patriots, how can we not be holier than thou.

I need to move back to Boston later this year though and find out why in all hell they voted a Salt Lake City Mormon right-wingnut as governor.

3. It's not "holier than thou".
It's "we just got done getting shit on for 87 years and are actually enjoying ourselves for a change but you can't deal with it because you don't have anyone to kick around anymore."

4. Yeah, baseball fights. I LOVE it!!
P.S. Give the Sox a break. They won the world series last year for the first time in 87 years. And next year they will have lost all of their free agents to different teams. Can't you Yanks just wait one year?

22. Washington Senators, 1924
that's actually only six years after the dreaded 1918. The Nats' recent swoon pretty much assures that the melancholy streak will continue.
