The 2008 season started with the Red Sox as champs. They were beaten by the A's, who were beaten back by Boston, who were then swept by Toronto, who lost to Oakland, who lost to Cleveland, and so on, until we reached our current champion.
The Heavyweight of the Year is the team that wins the most title bouts at the end of the season.

OK, I resisted fasting Dan Haren before, but I gotta do it now. He was terrible today against the Devil Rays. He just keeps leaving pitches out over the fat part of the plate.
I'm not watching/listening to Dan Haren pitch until he throws five consecutive scoreless innings.
But then again, I doubt he's trying to throw the ball down the middle of the plate, it's just happening. It's probably just a minor mechanical thing, and he'll get over it. I hope.
