waruv, have you taken a look at all the ex-Red Sox players in the playoffs? You could basically root for anyone! Except the Tigers.

David Wells
Josh Bard
Mark Bellhorn
Todd Walker
Rudy Seanez
Grady Little
Derek Lowe
Nomar Garciaparra
Jeff Suppan
Alan Embree
Cla Meredith
Dave Roberts
Aaron Sele
Johnny Damon
Mike Myers
Chad Bradford
Darren Oliver
Cliff Floyd
Jay Payton

I think the local news said that 10% of the players in the playoffs were former Red Sox. Absurd stuff. It's kind of funny I'm rooting for the team with one former Red Sox (I think the A's only have Payton) who was a douche.

Not to mention, the Tigers DO have a former Red Sox, the almighty Matthew Wade Stairs. Even if he isn't on the roster it seems.

The Tigers also have Todd Jones
