I had the privilage of going to the Red Sox home opener with my friend Jim today. The day was sunny and cold, the Sox received their World Series rings and also won the game, and the company was top notch. A great day.
Members of the Bruins, Celtics, and Patriots were there with The NBA Championship Trophy, the Stanley Cup, and the Super Bowl trophies, along with the two World Series trophies. I'm not sure they have all been in the same place at the same time before today.
Bill Buckner returned and threw out the first ball, the Boston Pops provided the music, Steven Tyler sang God Bless America, and Neal Diamond appeared on the big scoreboard screen to sing Sweet Caroline and announce that he will do a concert at Fenway Park in August. We take it for granted, but some major league teams have never had a day like today, and never will.
