Did You Play? No? Then Calm Down

Well, of COURSE there was trouble at Red Sox celebrations on New Hampshire college campuses, because SAWX WIN WICKED AWESOME PAPI LACKEY FACKIN' VICTORINO BEARDS AAAAAAAAHHHHH. Rock throwing, light poles toppled, people running around naked, car flipping, pepper spray used to disperse revelers. I have been in the midst of stuff like that -- Villanova winning the 1985 NCAAs, I was on campus and had to wade through the madness on Lancaster Avenue to get home -- and I'm as big a sports fan as they come, but getting drunk and violent over sports? I mean, these college kids are going nuts and it's not even connected to their school. They can't claim any ownership of the situation. They're purely third parties. Unless I get a paycheck from the team, I'll be happy but not THAT happy. (WMUR-TV/Manchester)
