TEAMS: Boston Red Sox

Probably for the best. Speaking of Santa, I had occasion to collect a Secret Santa gift last night and you would not believe it. I got a complete card set of the 1991 Pawtucket Red Sox, which includes Zupcic, Wedge, MO ******* VAUGHN, Phil Plantier, and, yes, Derek Livernois. My lord and savior.The person who gave it to me just had it, you know, just like lying around the house since... Well, I guess since 1991! It's the craziest thing. You really, really have to see it to believe it. I have been kicked in the butt by nostalgia. And I own it and you do not. REMARKABLE!
