Alexandra On: Sports

My girlfriend Alexandra is a beautiful woman with strong opinions on many subjects, even if she isn't the most informed on said subjects.

The following is her response to the news that the Boston Red Sox (my favorite baseball team) paid $51 million dollars for the rights to negotiate with Daisuke Matsuzaka:

Alexandra: I don't get it. You don't have to be from Boston to play for the Red Sox? That's stupid. What's the point then? You should have to be from the city that your team plays in. Then we'll see who the best team really is. Don't you agree? The Dolphins should have to be from Miami.

Scott: You mean everyone who plays for the Dolphins should have to be from Miami in order to play on the team?

Alexandra: Yeah. Otherwise, why call the Boston Red Sox the Boston Red Sox? Why not just call them the Red Sox. Or the Red Sox who happen to play in Boston. It's stupid. Don't you agree? Don't you agree?

Needless to say, I don't agree. But I appreciate her spirited debate.
