Boston Red Sox Interregnum
I have taken a few evenings off from obsessively collecting
information about the election in order to follow the Red Sox through
another October After 4-2 victory, Red Sox Nation dares to dream.
It's the native New Englander in me. Like shoveling snow, or riding a
sled down a hill into a pond that may (or may not) be suitably frozen
over - it just has to be done. Frankly after the debacle of the
ALCS 3rd game, they've played as well as any team I've seen . They've
played the game as tenaciously as I've seen it played.
On NPR's Morning Edition today I believe I heard sound
bites from both Presidential candidates saying "That other candidate,
he's just trying to scare you." At least we know what these fellows are
going out on Halloween as. Each other. Dick Cheney will go, as he
always has, as himself.
Beyond all that; let the seventh game begin.
