Get the weekend wrap from a fan that isn't afraid to tell it how it is!
"I'm so happy. I'm happy for the fans in Boston, I'm happy for Johnny Pesky, for Bill Buckner, for (Bob) Stanley and (Calvin) Schiraldi and all the great Red Sox players who can now be remembered for the great players that they were."-2004 Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling
I think if you're Red Sox, well, it's something you're born with, and affection you have." - Johnny Pesky
