Red Sox named Sports Illustrated "Sportsman of the Year"

I guess technically it should be sportsmen, but whatever. At least they made it through the article with out mentionion the hated moniker "Red Sox Nation".
Here is the link to the SI article.

I am not really sure what to make of this "award" from SI. I'll just take it as a good thing, and move on to what will probably be a December/January full of Red Sox in "Top Whatever" lists.

The Best quote was "By then the fates had written the script and Boston simply crushed St. Louis to win the World Series, consecrating the most stirring victory in New England since 1776".
