A Step Back

It occurs to me that as we all think back over the season, what an amazing ride it's been. It's united us all here - fans all across the country (and hell, the WORLD (hey Credepopsup and Deplorer!!) - cheering for the same team.

 

And here we are, 1-1 in the ALCS... with the potential to make it all the way.

 

No matter what happens, this Sox team has created more memories then any other in two generations.

 

What a ride it's been, and may this train keep on chugging along, all the way to 7 more W's.

 

:cheers

If we had folded at the end of the regular season, the team would have been skinned alive.

 

If they lose it here now, they come back home as a team that will have inspired thousands of kids to pick up and bat and ball, and desevedly so. At first I was saying that if we got to the post we would be in trouble, that was going off of August and September, as I wasn't sure we could re-bound. But now, yes I want to see a Series victory, but this team has proven to be a highlight of my life. I'm 35, and yet I feel like a kid when I see AJ, Gooch, Crede, Paulie, any of my team on TV being interviewed. When FOX interviewed AJ in Anaheim yesterday, I stopped everything I was doing just to hear him, and hushed everybody around me.

 

No matter where these guys go after this season, they are all a part of something REALLY special right now and have gained a place in all of our hearts, and I don't think any of them will ever be boo'ed at the Cell when they return.

 

***that last line is the naive side of me, as I know anybody will get ripped a new one from time to time*** :D :D :D
