A note from Red Sox Nation to Cubs and Indians fans, who are on the verge of eliminating decades -- if not centuries -- old curses. Both fandoms are living in a state of excitement, nervousness and a bit of shock. One of the fandoms will celebrate in excessive adolecese and shed tears of joy. The other fandom will file the heartbreaking loss in the memory bank, along with the other years of devastation.
There are all types of coaches and I as I coach two softball teams this year, I think about the "coaching" my Dad gave my brother and I growing up. He was never a big athlete, but he was athletic. We dragged him all over the place to play baseball, basketball and football. As a coach, I've taken some of the things I learned from those days and put them to work with my teams. Thanks pops.
