All in Red Sox
Broken foot dashes dreams of another parade in BostonThe Red Sox started this season with boat loads of promise. With a killer starting line-up and depth are just about every position, the Sox had zero "big questions" to answer going into the season.However, as the ship left the port, the team was lucky to ensure that the medical staff was well prepared. The season that started so promising has fluttered along. And Friday, just as the Sox were playing well and things seemed to be turning around, the team heart beat and spark plug, aka Dustin Pedroia, broke his foot.
Boston: The home of championsIf you live in the Greater Boston area and you are fan of any one of our professional sports teams, you realize that over the past 10 years or so, we've grown accustomed to winning.
It all started with the improbable 2001-02 Superbowl win of the Patriots, and then back to back Lombardi's just two years later. Then of course, we had the down 0-3 Red Sox who defeated their arch nemesis, the Yankees (or Skankees as I call them), only to sweep the Cardinals in the 2004 World Series. Sox did it again in 2007 by sweeping the Rockies. The next year, in 2008, the Celtics brought home the hardware by defeating their arch nemesis, the Lakers, in one of the most exciting finals in recent history (yes, I'm biased).
