Maybe the Devil made him do it. Presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani declared himself a Red Sox fan on Tuesday, but as recently as last summer he vowed never to trade his Yankee soul to the Sox - even for the White House.
By the fifth inning, it had gone past embarrassment to something more gruesome. Even Red Sox fan Stephen King couldn't bear to watch, spotted reading a copy of Newsweek magazine.
I'm disgusted. Perhaps the most recognizable Yankee fan, (with apologies to Billy Crystal) former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani and life long Yankee fan committed the most serious of sports sins yesterday when he stated plainly, I'm rooting for the RedSox. Garbage.
