She's nuts. Totally nuts. She needs to live in a city where no team wins a championship.

Kevin is doing 2 things wrong: ignoring that HE plays in a city were many teams win championships AND generalizing all fans as jerks because some boo bad performances of good players.

The thing you're missing is that she doesn't have to live somewhere else. She lives here and the players play for our entertainment. We are the fan base and we do what we please (most of us are pretty tolerant of bad play and if not we're at least respectful about it). We're going to be here long before and long after guys like Youkilis play the game. He's lucky to have been brought on board as part of an organization that knows how to win and is funded by us many fans paying high prices and buying every seat to see him play.

For him to complain that we take the city's teams for granted is absurd. This town lives and dies around ALL of its teams (ok, maybe we haven't been totally on top of the Bruins lately but relative to any other US NHL team I bet we're one of the best attended) compared to pretty much any other city. Her point is that if Youk tried playing in, say, Miami, he'd learn how the Marlins are taken for granted given how well they did not too long ago and how crappy their attendance and attention given is.
