“This is bigger than the 25 guys in this clubhouse.”

Johnny Pesky hugging Curt Schilling. I mean … that’s just huge.

I can’t even look at that for too long. It’s too much. Too much.

Last night, a champagne-drenched Theo Epstein said, “This is for anyone who ever played for the Red Sox, anyone who ever rooted for the Red Sox, anyone who ever saw a game at Fenway Park. This is bigger than the 25 guys in this clubhouse. This is for all of Red Sox Nation, past and present.”

I guess I still can’t really speak yet.

    Hi Susanna – Sorry I didn’t respond to that – it’s been WACKO over here!! As you can imagine! I loved the story of you waking up your daughter to see them win …

    I actually didn’t get the Projo article … I bet my parents will have it! I’m going home this weekend.

    Oh, and the Pesky photo is included in the NY Times article … if you pick up the Times today, you’ll see that photo.

    GO SOX!! :)
