MY RED SOX HAVE DONE IT AGAIN!!!!!!Oh, it's a sweet world once more.
The adrenalin, the insanity, the screaming, the crying, the anger:
And that's just me in my living room!
When the Boston Red Sox (my home town team) finally broke the 86 year curse of the Bambino in 2004, Brent and I decided that it had something to do with our inventiveness. You see, in the 2004 Playoffs against the Yankees, my Red Sox were down 3 to nothing. No one, in the history of MLB has a team come back to win the series from 0 and 3. So Brent and I decided something needed to change. We believed! We believed in Papi and in Manny, Pedro, Trot, Damon (traitor), Cabrera and the rest. And so, on game 4 we came home from work- ordered a pizza- stripped completely naked and turned on the telly. Well, praises to the God of all that's good it WORKED!!! And so, after the first win and their consecutive history making comeback, each and every game until number 7 we sat buck neked on the couch, eating pizza, watching our team win. And our good luck charm didn't end there, but continued on as they swept the Cardinals to become 2004's World Series Champs. Sigh, I can still taste that pizza...and feel the rash I got from the couch...
Nevertheless: here we are again, 2007 and my boys are on their way. This time, I think I'll put a towel down...
