Red Sox Nation

I guess being in Canada I would fall into the Red Sox Internation(al). I was cheering for the Sox from the moment they clinched a spot in the post season. Knowing that the Jays wouldn't be there (in August sometime ;) allowed me to adopt myself into the Red Sox Nation. Not that I was that far from it in my younger days.

I remember having a BoSox cap as a kid and wearing it all the time. I can still picture the cap. It was a faded blue almost purple. It was cloth with elastic at the back. The front panel was mostly white with vertical stripes 3 on each side separating the Boston and Red Sox which were written veritically Boston on the left side and Red Sox on the right. In the middle, between the two sets of stripes was the Boston Red Sox logo.

Today I miss having that hat.
