I was just creating a document at work and part of the standard format is to enter the creation date on the cover page. And there it was, staring me in the face. 1/9/18. Prior to the championships this probably would have put me in a bad mood for some portion of the morning. Except that we would all be on complete overload of stories, discussion, and whatnot regarding the impending 100 year anniversary of the 'last' championship.
Instead it's a nothing little thing that made me go 'huh' and reflect on how the Red Sox have been relegated to a much smaller part of my brain. I enjoy watching and following them of course, but I don't live and die with them like I used to. I'm not in the least bit sad or reminiscent about that mind you - the Red Sox now land squarely into a socially acceptable obsession (well, assuming you ask the right people...)
Sorry if this isn't main board worthy, just thought it would be nice to reflect on how nice it is that they managed to finally win it all a few times.
