Keeping the Faith

Words are unnecessary to describe how a Sox fan feels right now. Here are some points to consider:

1) We came from a 0-3 deficit in the ALCS
2) we defeated our nemesis
3) we redeemed ourselves from last year's ALCS Game 7 fiasco
4) we have not been to the World Series since 1986
5) We have a chance of beating the Curse
6) The whole world was rooting for us (the underdogs)

So really, it was a sweet victory no matter how you look at it.

So, I'm going to Boston on a red-eye tonite. My manager was kind enough to let me work from Boston all next week so I can be in town with fellow fans as we beat the Curse. Of course, I will also need to purchase a whole bunch of merchandise that says some combination of "Sox" and "World Series" and "champions" since this is such a rare occasion. Besides, how can I go against commercialism. On the bright side, I guess I'll be helping out the economy this way.

See you all in Beantown!
