Mea culpa

Well, it appears there have been more auspicious blogging debuts.

And that I should stick to basketball, no matter the baseball euphoria of the moment.

As gentle reader Scott Patterson, likely the first of many, points out,

The Red Sox haven't lost a World Series game in 89 years?  Seems to me they lost four in 1986, four more in 1975, four more in 1967

For a guy whose first serious World Series memory is Jim Lonborg losing in '67, and then blowing out his knee that winter; and for a guy who thought Bernie Carbo never got nearly the respect he deserved for that '75 Game 6 homer, that's inexcusable.

I also remember Bill Lee serving up the lob (beach) ball to Tony Perez in '75. I later became a Red Sox hater after the Jays inception, but I was a Red Sox fan for that World Series - mostly because I didn't want the Reds to win, but how do you not like a Luis Tiant or a Bill Lee?
