Johnny Damon is now a Yankee
Well if you haven't heard it already, now you will. Free agent center fielder Johnny Damon has signed a 4 year deal for $52 million. Well Johnny all I can say is that you truly are an idiot. You had a city who loved you, who always accepted you, and who respected you. Well by signing with the Yankees you have thrown all of that away.

It is reported that the Boston Red Sox made a 4 year offer worth $40 million to Damon during the winter meetings. This is all about money and all baseball fans know this. This is the typical ball player in these days. No more loyalty to the team you play for. Just loyalty for the dollar sign and how many zeroes are on the check.

Here's what Johnny Damon said to Red Sox fans (from a RedSox.com article): "I just want them to know that I appreciate them and I tried and that's the least I can do. I know they're going to continue to root for the Red Sox, which they should, and I'm going to win another World Series, so that's going to have to be right now. It's going to be tough to say bye to some of the greatest fans in the world. Unfortunately, they had to see this day and it's time to move forward."

Hey Johnny, as long as you play for the Yankees you will never win a World Series. The Red Sox will make sure of that. Have a fun time in New York, finally looking like a man without the mess on your face, but you'll still have that girly weak arm. When you see Big Papi rounding second to go to third, you might as well just hold onto the ball, because you got no shot in throwing Big Papi out.

As Jim Caple put it in his article on ESPN.com, Johnny Damon, you are dead to Red Sox fans. "Despite his role in winning the long-coveted World Series, he instantly becomes dead to Red Sox fans for going over to the dark side."

Johnny, we'll see you during the season and watch out when the first pitch is thrown to you!
