I'm Telling You, It's the Pie


I know it may sound crazy, but it’s all about the Lucky Red Sox Pie. Proof you say!


Well to know the power of the pie one first must go back to game 4 of the ALCS. While visiting family back in Boston, my brother Scott and I( though fully prepared to witness another heartbreaking season close) were all the masochistic Sox fans across the globe settling in for the game. Being November it was apple season in New England and we decided to make an apple pie. Having ahh hmmm indulged a bit by games end the Red Sox were still alive and the pie was completely gone.
So, the next game Scott and I made another pie and this time forced our way through the whole thing, and yep you guessed it the sox won again. This went on for the next 6 games 1 game one pie and 8 straight wins, which brings us to 2007! Game 1 made a pie (not because of luck just because I wanted a damn pie. No Pie in Game 2, 3, or 4 but then I released the error of my way and threw a pie together for Games 5, 6, and 7………….. Well the game starts in 5 and my daughter and I are about to watch the game while my wife laughs at me in my jearsy, her in her pink hat jumper, eating my pie, and holding my breath without moving a muscle as each pitch is delived........
