Never ever pop the cork on the champagne with the red sox until it is over. :-) Oh, I agree. This thing ain't over yet...

Why was Coco Crisp even in this series? Ellsbury’s so obviously better in every aspect of the game — he makes things happen.

Also, Fenway Park seems to welcome Romney more than it welcomes John Effin Kerry. Yeah, I know, Romney may not be conservative enough for many in FR, but he is more conservative than Kerry is.

pix on bostondirtdogs.com (look up Nov 2004) show them
campaigning with Kerry. There’s also the victory parade
pic with a sign depicting Babe Ruth and Kerry.
