So this is why Boston sports are so good
So this is why Boston sports are so good

There's no way the Red Sox, Celtics and Patriots could be this good on their own … right?

No, they couldn't.

Page 2 has uncovered the deal with devil that the three teams signed in the summer of '07 and needless to say it has a few holes in it that might just indicate that the end is nigh for Beantown. Oh, in case you're wondering, Boston Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs was also approached to see if he had an interest, but reportedly said the one penny retainer fee was "too rich for my blood."

1. one could reasonably argue
that the Devil (or his representative) already has a New England superbowl ring.

plus, everyone knows that the Devil, like all good multi-cultural, god-hating, eurotrash hipsters, is a soccer fan, so explain how the Revolution came to be the Bills of MLS? is it because his favourite sport was ignored during negotiations?
