A Promise Kept
We did our part. We kept the faith. The Red Sox have already done what no other team has done in baseball history by coming back from a 0-3 hole to force game seven in the ALCS. And they didn't even have to cheat.
(That's the first win where I didn't have an Ortiz walkoff pic!)
Em's friend Adam says: Good fans see 3 straight losses and say "I believe!" Dirty rotten pieces of scum fans see 3 straight losses and throw baseballs at players and umpires.
I am simply amazed at what Curt Schilling did tonight. With blood soaking through the sock on his injured foot, the man who the Sox went to as the last piece in an 86 year old jigsaw puzzle absolutely pitched one of the greatest, gutsiest games I've ever seen. I am just filled with joy and admiration. Wow. [UPDATE: the man had SURGERY yesterday?!]
Mostly, I am just so grateful. Thank you Red Sox. I feel like we won this series, no matter what tomorrow's outcome. This game was a gift.
One game left. I believe.

oh man, what an awesome night….
i went to a concert tonight (alone - yes, i am a loser) and got home for the end of the ninth….fuck yeah…
here’s why it was an awesome night…although i did miss the majority of the game, the concert i went to tonight was one of the best i’ve ever been too (if anyone ever gets the chance to see Sondre Lerche live…do it…fucking amazing), then i come home to an amazing final inning, which made this sereies just like last years…oh man…
oh yeah, and i’m a littlt tipsy,……
