    Yeah, I'm just saying that your intro said it will help new fans, but then the rest of the article is "If you don't know who so-and-so is, you're not a fan." That doesn't exactly help. It's more like a joke between Sox fans who *do* know who these people are.

    Imagine if your teacher at school taught a lesson by bringing up historical figures and telling you "If you don't know who John Quincy Adams is, you're probably not going to pass history class," but then didn't go on to tell you who he is. It's kind of like that.

    If your intro was complaining about bandwagon fans, then the rest of the slides would fit with no explanation really needed. But you said you were writing the article to get people caught up on Sox history, so explaining each of the items in the list will be the way to help do that.

    It was still a good slideshow—don't get me wrong. I just felt like new fans might read the intro before going on to the rest and be left a little confused. Keep up the good work,

    -Tim
