Damon not a traitor

When the Boston Red Sox won the World Series in 2004, it was hard to imagine star player Johnny Damon crossing over to what some people would call "the dark side". However, the unimaginable is now reality as Damon is a New York Yankee.

To some Red Sox fans, Damon is a traitor. I don't see it that way. Loyalty, as we think of it, doesn't exist in today's sports world.

Players and teams are willing to commit to each other for some period of time. But, if either side has something to gain, that relationship can end quickly. Loyalty is not to a person or team, but to the bottom line.
