Boston Strong

Even for a Yankees fan, the Red Sox clinching this World Series feels right in so many ways.   While MVP "Big Papi" David Ortiz dominated the season, this has been a true all-star team lineup.   The 2004 win ended their World Series drought with an away game, but this 2013 victory at Fenway for the first time since 1918 serves a certain poetic justice in a season that began around the time of the Boston Marathon tragedy.   The whole Boston story this year serves as a quintessential American one.   I don't think we're done, either.   Will the Patriots be the next big story after Tom Brady's incredible pass a couple of Sundays ago?
