That time of the year

This week the world is treated to the great, late-summer drama called "Red Sox - Yankees."

Anyone else excited?

I'm looking forward to the next two games a little more than I normally would be. We are up 7 games instead of down 7, and a win tonight would be doubly sweet. Beating Clemens and negating the win last night by the bad guys would be really nice.

When we win, there is nothing better in sports than a game between these two. When we lose, there is nothing worse. That's probably a good definition of a rivalry. Not only do the standings change every time they play, but it determines whether or not the day was good.

Go Red Sox! I need a good day today.
