I just think it's funny you have this crusade against any Sox fans making reference to the Yankee payroll, and then say that the Sox potentially outbidding the Angels is the "problem".

I don't think it's a "problem". Your word, not mine. I would say it's disappointing. The Red Sox don't need to spend that money. They're already set at the position Teix plays. It's basically a luxury for them. And that difference, that willingness to spend that kinda cash on a luxury, especially when they're already spending what $15-20 M on the "odd man out" in Lowell, is what separates them from the Angels, Cubs, etc. and puts them in Evil Empire range.
To me, that's disappointing, to have to work against that, especially when I see Red Sox fans here complaining about the Yankees (and, yes, Royals fans certainly have the right to bitch at me about the Angels).
