Well, I've decided to break into the blogging business.
Haha. I was inspired to create this blog as a tribute to my favorite team, the
Boston Red Sox, because I wanted to be the first Red
Sox blogger to get linked on
Rob Neyer's blog on
ESPN.com.
I know, that is lame, what can I say.
I don't plan to make a job from this, nor am I going to try and be a blog that "breaks news" as some blogs do out there. I just hope to consistently talk about the Red
Sox and everything about them.
I have seemed to jump on board the blogging express at a busy time of year for the Red
Sox and baseball. The
Sox are in the midst of a 3-way dogfight for the AL East Title trapped between the 1st-place (yes, no kidding) Rays and the 3rd-place Yanks while topping the AL Wild Card standings.
A little about myself. I am a 36 year-old, married (sorry, ladies), father of two young children.
(Yes, I am molding them into Red
Sox fans,
Haha. My 3 year-old son can already recite most of the players on the team, as well as belt out the
Star Spangled Banner,
Take Me Out to the Ballgame, and
God Bless America since he was about 2 years-old or so. Okay, back on topic.)
Like I said, I am 36, married with children, and a life long Red
Sox fan. I currently employed in the financial industry and as the title of my blog page says, work part time as a food vendor at
Fenway. My earliest memories of the
Sox, are the days of Fred Lynn roaming center-field. He is my all-time Red
Sox favorite, and I remember being disappointed when he left for the Angels. Damn that front office.
Haha.
I don't really remember the Bucky Dent homer too well, as I was still young and in school probably at that time. However, I remember Buckner's miscue like everyone else. I remember watching
Brunansky fall out of view to make that clinching catch on my TV in college. Clemens getting tossed in the Oakland playoff series.
Yada,
yada,
yada.
An interesting note for me, my son born in September of 2004 and the
Sox went on to win the first World Series of many people's lifetime. I followed that up with having my daughter born in October of 2007, and then we get the 2
nd World Series title. So, I will be sure to keep all up to date on the next child, as that will lead into the next World Series title. Sorry to say, there is nothing in the oven now.
