Forgiveness and baseball

I'm a true New England girl...I want to hike thru the woods to cut my own Christmas tree down, I believe ham, beans and brown bread are the ultimate Saturday night supper, I don't consider it actually cold until the mercury drops below 10 degrees Fahrenheit, my heart belongs to the Boston Red Sox and I think the NY Yankees are Satan incarnate.

In 2004, the baseball gods forgave my beloved BoSox for trading the Babe to the Evil Empire. This year, they forgave the White Sox for the scandalous goings on during the 1919 World Series.

I'm happy about it. Sure, I would have preferred that Boston won 2 years in a row, but hey, the Sox still won. Who cares if they were white instead of red?

There's only one thing to worry about now...if the Cubs win next year, I'm pretty sure the apocalypse will be upon us.
