Josh Beckett Didn't Win the Lotto? He Wuz Rahbed!

Josh Beckett finished second to CC Sabathia for the AL Cy Young despite the fact Saba the Hutt pitched more innings, had a lower ERA, had more strikeouts and gave up less walks. Needless to say, Red Sox fans have already ran through four of the five stages of grief -- denial, anger, bargaining and depression (I doubt acceptance will ever occur).

Surprisingly enough, Red Sox Nation is already lobbying on Beckett's behalf for the following awards:
  • American League MVP
  • Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year
  • Heisman Trophy
  • Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting
  • AVN Award for Best DP Scene
  • Nobel Prize for Economics
  • Newton High School Cutest Couple Award
