Look, I grew up there and I remember what it was like when the Patriots sucked royally and when the Red Sox were chronic chokers (a la the Philadelphia Eagles!).

Yes. Those stubborn 'old coots' are moving to Florida. And I'll bet a bunch more decided recently.
This winter has been harsh. I saw a pic of reader Private Caller in his Central Massachusetts driveway....and the snow bank was nearly up to his eyeballs. And he's a big guy too, measuring 6 foot 3.

....my biological father actually started paying someone to plow his driveway!
