UPDATE It's in the books
UPDATE
It's in the books and set. I am going to Boston this afternoon for what may be the world's first party that took 86 years to plan. Photos and stories to come.
Hte Red Sox will win tonight. I believe.
EDIT: ESPN.com's Page 2 has a great column here by Bill Simmons, "The Sports Guy," who is from Boston. In it, he says much of what I tried to say in my post last night, only he says it better. He also links back to the Sons of Sam Horn message thread that started this... if you want to know what this week means to Red Sox fans, I humbly recommend that you read that thread, whether in its entirety or just pieces of it. The number of Sox fans saying, "this one's for Dad/Grandpa/Aunt Louisa/whoever" is just mind boggling. Many of these are tear-jerkers -- so have the tissue ready.
86 years in the making...
And I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. Good on ya, Boston.
