'BC's breathtaking 34-33 double-over victory'
I've rediscovered fall. The Boston College game yesterday was simply awesome. Next up: Pats, today, 1 p.m. ... Nothing against the Sox. Thanks for the 2003, 2004 and 2005 memories. They were beyond intense. But I needed a rest this year from baseball. It feels nice to be paying closer attention to football in early September, rather than tuning in around late October. My hunch is that maybe the Sox front-office could use the break too. They seem to be scrambling of late, trying to keep the momentum going while knowing deep-down the team is nothing more than glorified patchwork. First piece of advice: Theo, Tito, Larry and John, take a vacation. They look and sound tired. After one or two weeks, they can come back, while the playoffs are still going, and get a head start on rebuilding. ...
