I have to say though, I KNEW the BoSox were going to win The Series the minute I tuned into game one. How could you possibly take seriously any team that would go out to play a Major League Baseball World Series game dressed like they had jumped straight out of a Jetson's cartoon. Really!I also should note that the whole thing is just a little weird. I did grow up in New England. I do remember what it was like to wait just to see how the Red Sox would screw it up this time. It was a grand tradition. Now that we can say that 2004 was not a fluke, and now that the Patriots are truly dominating their sport, and now that even the Celtics are apparently showing signs of possible intelligent life, it seems to be a glorious time (leaving the Bruins out of it for the time being) to be a New England sports fan. Not that I'm paying any attention to any of this.

Come now. Is there not even a tender spot for the Packers in your New England heart?

Sure. Every Monday morning I listen to the news report tell of how the Packers routed their most recent opponent. I feel a slight stirring of satisfaction, a sense of destiny, a feeling of super-bowl certainty. For a moment. Then the moment passes and life goes on.
I'm not sure that qualifies as a tender spot. I've not watched a game yet. Probably won't until the playoffs at least. Got other things need doing.
