Red Sox Nation Celebrates
We are tired and emotionally spent. But we are awake today and relieved
to anticipate another playoff series with the vaunted competition – the
New York Yankees.
Yes, The Fenway faithful have been rewarded with a tense and scary five
game playoff with the Oakland Athletics.
Nobody with pencil and eraser could have written a script for this
series with more drama and excitement. There was a sense of destiny and
a sense of irony in each of the games.
Much is made of the historic duels with the Yankees and Red Sox. History
aside, this promises to be another exciting two weeks of playoff
baseball.
We imagine that the productivity of workers and the energy of all will
be depleted as we take in these games.
A few times in our lives, we allow for sport to be larger than life.
…………..
Town meeting starts up in two weeks. If the Sox continue their streak,
the moderator may need to schedule sessions with a large screen TV
handy.
