As a New Yorker, I wish the Yanks had been there. But, as you probably know we always root for the team located closest to Brooklyn, even if it is Boston.

Congratulations! Don't tell anyone from NY I said this, but, you have a really great team and I just love the intense rivalry between the two teams.

Wow, a Yankees fan applauding the Sox? Cool!

I mentioned last night that I was kind of wishing the Yankees had won in '01. Not because I like them, but because I thought it would be a good morale-booster for the city after 9/11.

Yeah, me too. But I want to win fair and square and it just wasn't in the cards that year. Enjoy the celebrations; your team deserves it after their spectacular performance.

Interesting. Thanks. Honestly, as someone whose family is almost entirely in NY (Dad's family is in Brooklyn, Mom's is in Staten Island), this phenomenon of the Red Sox Religion stunned me. Alas, I have also learned, in my travels, to adapt to my surroundings, even if that means cheering on the home-town team.

Personally, I grew up a Cubs fan, though. We were living in Chicago at that time. Go figure.

I said it today, as we have soldiers who are too young to remember 1980:

"Do you believe in miracles?"

I have seen three sports miracles in my life: Team USA Hockey 1980. Lance Armstrong in the Tour. And the 2004 Red Sox.

I believe.

I was too young to remember 1980. I was too young to walk in 1980. :)

But I will always remember this.

I think you had only barely been born when the "Miracle on Ice," occurred.

Yeah, I was 44 days old. :)
