Do You Believe In Miracles?
For the first time in 18 years, Boston is going to the World Series after their 10-3 drubbing of the Yankees. To say that it's hard to believe is an understatement, as the Sox had to come back from a 3-0 deficit to take the Series, coming back in two of the four games. But I believed that the Sox were the favorites going in, so while I was surprised that the Sox were able to come back against such tough odds, I wasn't surprised to see them win. Naturally, Francona's dumb move in the seventh means that the Sox are in a poor position for the World Series, but at least they're going.
See you Saturday.

I apologize for only allowing authenticated commenters, but comment spam overwhelms the site if I don't use those measures to prevent it. I reserve the right to delete any comment, although generally comments will only be deleted due to use of profanity or personal attacks on people. I have no objection to vigorous argument, but when name-calling begins, I'm putting a stop to it. In the immortal words of Eugene Levy, "People, people, let's stop this before somebody says something untrue!" If you want to call people names, I recommend you get your own blog.

I'm so excited!
We shouldn't even think about tomorrow
Sweet memories will last for a long long time
Let's get excited, we just can't hide it
I'm about to lose control and I think I like it
I'm so excited and I just can't hide it

(Did my husband just post lyrics to a song by the Pointer Sisters?)
Boston is indeed excited. It is palpable. Imagine six hundred thousand usually obnoxious people smiling and happy (and tired!). It's Christmas in October. I grew up in NY and never cared about baseball. 5 years in Boston and I care, I really do. Whatever happens, the ride has been fabulous. GO RED SOX!
