John Henry Joins the Blogosphere

Red Sox owner John Henry has started a blog on NESN and in his first post he warned readers not to take him so seriously:

Now I realize that if I, for instance, joke around about a curse … oooeuff! Some people seem to take everything seriously in sports — everything. I don’t know how anyone can take curses seriously!

I kidded about Yankees Universe and the fact that Red Sox Nation has ceded many of the planets in our own solar system to the Yanks … oh boy. Some took great offense. “SOX OWNER BASHES YANKS!”

So let’s be clear. This blog will often be written with a sense of humor. And it will be controversial for at least a couple of reasons. Number one — I’m writing it. Number two — I have had a lifelong tendency to be blunt.

It should be an interesting read.
