I arrived in the States in the summer of '67.
I was taught the baseball basics by my friends to the tune of the '67 Red Sox.
The Cardiac Kids as they were known.
Been a faithful Sox fan ever since.
I was in Fenway Park at the '75 World Series. Damn the Reds.
I subscribe to the tribe that believes Game 6 of the '75 World Series was the Greatest Game Ever Played.
I was in Fenway for the '86 World Series only to have my hopes dashed.
(I still Hate the Mets)
Finally joy arrived in 2004 and '07 and again in '13
So there is a God!
Most fun was the 2004 Victory Parade through Boston.
I was there and all of New England showed up,
It was a massive regional and generational PARTY.
With Theo at the helm the Cubs day will come.
