Boston Red Sox - 2007 & 2004 World Champions!
This Red Sox lens is dedicated to my grandfather, Edgar Hebert, a Fall River, Massachusetts native, who loved baseball and the Red Sox, and who lived and cheered for over 80 years, and never saw them win the World Series. And for his brother, Rene, who died in the Normandy invasion after landing on Omaha Beach on D-Day, after far too few games of catch with my grandfather, and who was never far from my grandfather's thoughts.
Faith, Hope and Determination
Boston was built on it.The Country was built on it.
My family was built on it.
It's at the core of every Red Sox fan.
Tired of the Boston Winters?
You can still be a Boston Red Sox fan - and be warm at the same time.Thinking of relocating to sunny Florida? Buy my brother's house (he loves the Boston Red Sox even more than I do!)
Plus, he had lunch with Jim Rice. Oh yeah, he's the man...

Red Sox Gifts for Everyone who loves Beantown!
And, in case you are not actually a Red Sox fan, but you love one (which brings you here to get them one of the most special gifts of all), the importance of the 2004 World Series is that we had to go THROUGH the Yankees to get there - so that DVD will help your Red Sox fan relive the glory of reversing the curse, etc etc (because that DVD includes the playoffs w/the Yankees)!

Recent Red Sox (and Yankees) Scores
Wow, winter went by fast! (thank goodness) Spring is upon us and so is our favorite Red Sox 2008 season. I feel at a loss this year. We've beaten the unbeatable against all odds and then went on to win the World Series in 2004, and we confirmed by winning the World Series last year in October 2007 that October 2004 was not a fluke.
So, what's there left to do in 2008? I'm feeling anxious (as in, when you're on top, there's only one way to go ) - but happy too.
Leave it to a Red Sox fan to find anxiety even in triumph! (We're well conditioned that way!)

Celebrating the 2007 Red Sox World Series Championship
Sweep Caroline! Sox win World Series in four games
The Boston Red Sox completed a sweep of the World Series Sunday night, beating the Colorado Rockies in four games. The final was 4-3. Boston jumped out to a 1-0 first inning lead and added single runs in the fifth, seventh and eighth innings. Mike Lowell and Bobby Kielty each had home runs for Boston, and Brad Hawpe and Garrett Atkins homered for Colorado. Atkins hit his, a two-run shot in the eighth off Boston set-up man Hideki Okajima, who had given up a three-run homer to Matt Holliday in the seventh inning Saturday night. Sox closer Jonathan Papelbon came in with one out in the eighth and retired Ryan Spillbourgs on a ground ball and Hawpe on a flyout to center field. After the Sox went down in order in the ninth, Papelbon retired Torvit Torrealba on a grounder to second. Jamie Carroll hit a long fly ball to left field that Ellsbury caught at the wall and pinch hitter Seth Smith struck out on a 2-2 pitch. At 12:06 EDT on Monday, Oct. 29, the Red Sox were world champions again and the party was on. The win went to Jon Lester, the young pitcher who beat cancer this year. Making his first start of the post-season, Lester pitched 5 2/3 innings of no-run, three-hit ball. The save went to Papelbon, who pitched 11 scoreless inningfs in the post season, including 4 2/3 in the World Series. Mike Lowell, the free-agent-to-be, was named most valuable player of the World Series. He batted .400, with three doubles and the home run in the clincher.

Boston Red Sox 2004 World Champions Video
This is the best championship video there is. Crank up your speakers and relive the moment that Red Sox fans felt that day. The video says it all.

The Yankees Rivalry
Yankee fans never have to exercise their faith, hope and determination muscles. You need very little faith and hope with an extremely winning team.
Red Sox fans have a depth and breadth of emotion that few other fans have. We can feel both despair and hope, pessimism and optimism almost simultaneously.
Law of Attraction and the Red Sox
But, in 2004, Red Sox fans did it! We started to say, even more than we had in past years, despite 86 years of disappointment, "We Believe!"
We actually said outloud, "Why Not Us?"
And then the Miracle manifested - in the most miraculous way.
2004: The so-called "Curse" is Gone
What was the Curse?Before 2004, 1918 was the last time the Red Sox won the World Series. About a year later, the Red Sox traded Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees. Oooops.
What is the Green Monster?
Just over 37 feet high, it is taller than any other wall in an American professional ball park. It "eats" or prevents lots of hits that would otherwise be homeruns in any other ballpark.Provides a serious outfielding advantage to Red Sox left fielders against visitors who don't know how to play a line-drive off the Monster.
