I'm hiding out in lounge because hubby is Red Sox Fan...I can't deal
with it anymore. I'm sick of it. I told him to find another team. BoSox are like Dems to me...

It's too painful going through this election season to have him sitting there watching and figuring THIS WILL BE THE YEAR WE DO IT!

I told him to get therapy or go with another team that is consistent.

I'm a bad person but I can only deal with so much. He's in there screaming now because of a Home Run.

In the end I know the Yankees will always win....I can't tell him that.
It's too hurtful for him...but year after year after year..

And, then there's Bill Buckner...the last time I ever watched a baseball game...I never got over it..

1. Tell him I said he's right.
Keith Foulke is a pain in the a$$ sometimes.
And try to be more patient. This is a very stressful time of year for Sox fans the world over, including JK.

2. It seems a tight game. The tension is floating down the hall.. I know
BoSox fans are there to the death....it's just hard when it's too painful for a spouse to deal with it year after year after year...

I hope they make it to the Series...but I don't want to curse them with hope...:D

3. Your hubby's probably pretty ticked about them not getting the run in
with the bases full and one out. Me too. :(

9. He'll be all smiles this morning...
Sox won
Yankees lost
Only 3.5 games back now thanks to Cabrera's walk-off homer in the 12th.
Different hero every day. :D
