I had to ask my dad some questions, to make sure I wasn't completly making things up...
Me: So... Yankees are in first place, right? Like, out of all the teams in both leagues?
Him: Yes
Me: And... whose in second place?
Him: Tampa Bay
Me: And, whose Tampa playing today?
Him: Them
Me: And do we want Boston to win?
Him: Yes
Me: What place is Boston in?
Him: Oh, they're not even in the top, we don't need to worry about them
Me: So, they're not doing good?
Him: No. They've been doing so much better in years past
Me: We just need to worry about Tampa, right?
Him: Yep
Me: So, the Sux have nothing over us?
Him: Nope, not at all
Hehe, so I don't have to argue anymore with you sox fans, I've got nothin' to worry about xD
