The Sox are a great team to root for, despite their losing record...
well,... every year since 1918.  The crowds are great, the atmosphere is
energetic, and yes, it's more fun when Yankees fans are in the park
(especially when they get escorted out of the bleachers sections for
riling up the crowd or starting fights).   It's these kinds of things
that attracts players like Curt Schilling to come play for us - well,
not the fighting, but the other stuff.  He LOVES playing in Boston more
than any Sox player I've ever seen.  I guess maybe that's why he hasn't
lost a game at Fenway yet.

We'll see tonight if the Sox can make their record 7 out of 8 against
the Yankees this season. :-)
