It wasn't like it is now. But for the types of teams we had, the fans were very good here. On some Thursday afternoon games, we'd get 25,000 fans. That was remarkable. This has always been a great Red Sox city. ↗

All literary men are Red Sox fans - to be a Yankee fan in a literate society is to endanger your life. ↗

The Red Sox are the local scapegoats. It's hard enough to play baseball without being the local scapegoat too. ↗

If you had to point to one thing that made it less likely that the Red Sox would win the World Series, I would say it was those people that go to Fenway Park to watch the games. And then the media around it. ↗

Just as the Red Sox proved the critics wrong, Maine can compete and can win. ↗

The Red Sox are a curious thing because so much here is media driven. You can't go fire half your scouts here because they are all friends with the local reporters. Your life is going to hell in the papers. ↗

2004 was a great year for Boston! The Patriots won the Super Bowl! Boston hosted its first national political convention! And - the Red Sox won the World Series! ↗

I became a Yankees fan for a few years. But now, I gotta say, I'm really rooting for the Red Sox. ↗

We picked the Red Sox because they lose. If you root for something that loses for 86 years, you're a pretty good fan. You don't have to win everything to be a fan of something. ↗
