The Red Sox were so close this time. I have to admit that it's the first time in many many years that I've paid this much attention to them. I won't deny that I'm sort of a fairweather fan. I mean I've always been a Sox fan and I always will, but like I mentioned. I usually don't pay attention. But this time I really wanted them to win. I wanted them to get into the World Series and duke it out, to break the curse. I also wanted it to be against the Cubs. They deserved to be in the World Series more than we did. Oh well.
