Earlier this summer I wrote a post about the Fenway Faithful and this year's Red Sox team. It was early in the season and to soon to make any predictions, other than this was going to be a 'fun' year.
As they made their way into the playoffs, I wrote a very short post, Fenway Faithful Revisited, about how well they had done...a fantastic reward for those fans that have followed the team through the good times and the not so good and it seems appropriate that they will be returning to Fenway for the final out of this season, win or lose. .
Now with the series tied at 2-2, could you ask for anything more? Well... being World Series Champs would be great. But there seems to more to this team than just crazing looking beards and David Ortiz may have shown what that is last night in the dugout.
There is a lesson here, whether they win it all or not. The lesson is quite simple. "See what great things can happen when people work together for the common good!" It's baseball. It may only be a game. But it is through the game that we can learn some valuable lessons.
For now, it may be called 'Boston Strong.' I hope the' team' in Washington D.C. is watching this.series. There may be some lessons that can be learned here. Perhaps in the future we can call it ."A Nation Strong!'
Great job Red Sox!
