I live in Los Angeles and my daughter had her first softball practice yesterday, and her coach's wife (who happened to be her soccer coach this year), had on a Red Sox sweat shirt. I said "I didn't know you were a Red Sox fan." And she said "I'm not, my brother played for them for a year." I said, "Oh really, what's his name?" She said "Dave Roberts, have you heard of him?"
LOL. Have I heard of him? Um, he's only a Red Sox icon for breaking an 86 year curse!
