The boston Red Sox. By far my favorite team of all time. I grew up in a house where you either liked the Red Sox, or you moved out. My whole family has always been obsessed with them and no one or nothing will ever change that. You might be wondering how we all became Red Sox fans. Well, it all started with my fathers father. He loved watching sports, since he was so athletic. He became a Red Sox fan when he was younger and never stopped liking them. Ever since he raised all of his kids to be Red Sox fans, and now the entire family bleads red and blue. Unfortinately he never saw them win. He died in 2001 and never saw the Red Sox claim victory to the world. For some reason after he died, I started becoming obsessed with them. There were a couple years of dissapointment. Cough...2003... Aron Boone...Cough. But the next year the redsox aquired Curt and the entire team changed. I remember when the Red Sox were down 3 games to nothing against the Yankees. I lost all faith in them, but my faithful girlfriend helped me regain the faith. I think i realized that they had a chance when after game 4 when the Red Sox won with the help of Big Pappies bat. My grandmother sent me an email. She wrote a whole story in it, but there was one phrase that stuck out. It said "HOW ABOUT THOES SOX????? I THINK GRAMP IS FINALLY RUNNING THE TEAM FROM ABOVE." This one sentence made me regain all of my strength back and i printed it out and hung it on my wall. It is still there right now. Anyway, the Red Sox ended up comming back like we all know and swept the World Series to become World Series Champions. My entire family celebrated. I know we all though it, but we never said it..."I wish pop could have seen this." But i think he did. I think he gave the Red Sox the strength, teamwork, and passion to win the World Series and Reverse the Curse!!!!
