    Just wanting to see what made you love the greatest team in sports. I lived in the West Roxbury neighborhood in Boston til I was 6, then moved to Nashua, NH where I lived til I was 15. Fenway is a must see before they tear it down.

    getting to see a 2 games at fenway. 1 at age 12, 1 at age 14......i would have to say the stadium did it for me. that place just has a special feel about it.

    orrr, maybe i'm just a glutton for punishment and that is what pulled me in...:D

    Hate to say it now but it was Roger Clemens who got me so hooked on the Red Sox. We caught a few of his 16K games but missed out on 20K. Now I couldn't care less about him or his 300 victories.

    CharPirate is right too, Fenway just had a special feel to it. Used to go almost once a week when their was a game there.

    How about the expolsion last Friday night? REminded me of when Greg Swindell made his debut against Clemens in 1986, Swindell was from Texas also. We scored 24 runs that night.

    As a Yankees fan I would love to get to a game at Fenway before it gets taken down, but I have a strong dislike for Boston sports fans. The main reason is that they for no reason must yell out Yankees suck whenever they see or hear anything about the Yankees.

    Prime example: Patriots versus Jets at Giant Stadium this past September...Jets are getting pounded and some Patriot fans decide to start the Yankees suck chant, while they are 10 game behind them in the AL East race and one of these fools happens ot have on a Curtis Martin Patriots jersey...bottom line is there was no need for that, it was the only time ever I have wanted to get in a fight to get thrown out of a stadium in my life, but the season tickets are too important to me.

    That put my hatred over the top, but I am not like that and neither are the Yankee fans I associate with, even though I'm sure we both have ignorant fans.

    Even with my hatred of the Red Sox, I still think Varitek got screwed.
