Red Sox Own Yankees On Twitter As Well

John Henry is officially the man. He pretty much already was for bringing two World Series Championships to Boston, but his recent clowning of Mark Teixeira via twitter brings him to a whole new level of coolness. After the Sox beat the Yankees for the gatrillionth straight time on Thursday night, Henry tweeted, The MT Curse? Posing the question that Mark Teixeira had possibly cursed the Yankees when he signed with them after coming very close to joining the Red Sox this past offseason. Henry was obviously just playing around, but BIG TEX took it as a preemptive strike to start WW3.

"There's no reason to get into it with a 70-year-old man about baseball"
Henry is in fact 59... close though Mark.

"I love playing this game. If I have offended anybody from the time that I was 18 years old until now, I'm sorry. I don't know what else to say. It's a little silly. It's actually very silly. There's nothing else to say."
Jeez dude it was a joke, relax. Henry wasn't calling out your existence, no need to defend your entire life.

Henry went on to say that the twitter post was purely for entertainment and he doesn't believe in curses, to which Teixeira replied:

"You guys make the decision. Whose reputation looks better right now?"
Well, actually yours looks pretty bad considering you react to a harmless playful joke like a four year old.

My favorite part about this entire thing is after Teixeira's comments were made public Henry responded with this.

"Hope I didn't hurt Mark's feelings!"

Ahhh, that's good shit. Taking shots at somebody via twitter may seem a bit childish but when Marky took the entire thing out of epic proportions, Henry could have started a food fight with him and would have seemed more mature. All this talk of the MT Curse is giving Tex too much credit anyway. We all know A-Rod cursed the Yanks when he fell into their hands in the 03-04 off-season.

John Henry- Sick
