« Why Government | Main | I Suppose It Could Have Been Worse » June 27, 2006The Ghosts of '86The Boston Red Sox are (finally) planning to celebrate the accomplishments of the 1986 Red Sox. Best known for one unfortunate error (that wouldn't have made a big difference anyhow, since Stanley had already allowed the tying run to score, but never mind that), the '86 Red Sox brought a lot of joy and life into Boston baseball and arguably set the stage for the 'Red Sox nation' that lived and died (and celebrated) with the boys of 2004. Yes, we lost in 1986. Yes, it was painful to lose after being one strike away. But it's nice to see we're finally going to recognize all that the 1986 team did accomplish. On a side note, if anyone boos Pedro tomorrow, they should be vigorously beaten about the head and shoulders. Posted at June 27, 2006 11:07 AM

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.
