<p>Just doesn’t seem fair to have everything going their way right now…the Patriots , the Sox, Boston College…and my H says the Celtics are looking good. Must be an awesome time to be a sports fan out there!</p>
<p>As a graduate of Boston College (Bachelors and Masters), a life-long New Englander (whose family actually had season tickets to the Patriots all throughout the “lean years”), and a Red Sox fan since childhood (Tony C - R.I.P.) - life couldn’t be any better right now!</p>
<p>Actually, had D gone to BC - then maybe that would be even better - LOL! She wasn’t even interested in applying :(</p>
<p>I must say that I am totally impressed by the Colorado Rockies organization and congratulate them for what they accomplished this year. Rockies fans should be very proud!</p>
<p>Life is good for us New England sports fans.
I’m so looking forward to going to bed at a reasonable hour tonight.</p>
<p>Gotta love the Boston sports scene—even the Bruins are doing better than usual!</p>
<p>So what happened to God’s Team?</p>
<p>You know, my feeling about public sports prayer, for lack of a better word, has always been “knock it off an just let Him/Her enjoy the game.”</p>
<p>As a Cubs fan, I’ve had a kind of affinity for the Bosox. And a great deal of respect for Theo Epstein, somebody who reads and understands Bill James.</p>
<p>I just had NO idea about the Rookies and being all born again and the like</p>
<p>Makes me all the happier- GO SOX!!!</p>
<p>Baseball may not be dead, but it is at least over for now. If the clock hadn’t struck midnight for the Rockies, we could conceivably be playing the World Series in NOVEMBER!</p>
<p>TheDad, DS is a huge fan of Bill James. He studies his books like the Bible. Theo is an impressive GM for being so young. We’re lucky to have him in Boston. </p>
<p>Can’t make the rolling rally today…but we’re looking forward to going down to Spring Training in March.</p>
