Very classy all the way around.  Even the Yankees.  Hey, if you don\'t respect being a champion then how are you supposed to become one?  Highlights for me were the "monster" banner, the army vets, and the Russel/Orr/Bruschi/Seymour tetris.  The only thing that would have made it better would have been if Phish came out on the hot dog while the BSO played 2001 during the banner unfurlings, and then took over the jam.  Hey, they\'re from New England, coulda happened...

Speaking of which, here\'s the setlist (yes, I wrote it down)

Boston Symphony Orchestra w/ Boston Pops 4/11/5 Fenway Park; Boston, MA
I: 2001, O Glori\'us Day, Star Wars Theme > Jurassic Park Theme > Superman Theme, Olympic Fanfare > Hallelujah Chorus, Beethoven\'s 5th

Today at Shea: The loudest pregame ovation goes to Pedro by far. Glavine better than Pettite. Mets and Astros in a battle of bullpen futility. Astros prove worse with the addition of John Franco, who allowed a two-run single. 15-minute delay in the sixth because a high definition image of Pedro in center field was distracting Houston hitters and stalled upon request to change it. Mets win.

Sox and Yanks play again today?

nice ceremonies yesterday, my friends in Boston loved every minute of it and called me with harassing phone calls, to remind me that they were drunk in a bar outside Fenway and that the Red Sox won the World Series last year.

Can anyone confirm this "world series champion" thing, I don\'t believe it! I asked on several occassions "are you serious?"

Good for them, now its over and we can offically start the new season in baseball.
Love many, trust few and don\'t be late.

I can\'t believe no Yankees nor Red Sox fans have commented on last night\'s latest disgrace in the stands. Hopefully this will stir up the shit.

Meanwhile, Mets, Yanks, Sox, all under .500, but I\'m sure not for long.

No need to comment on last night\'s incident. Was simply a small altercation that resulted in nothing because Sheff kept his cool, and that security guard who I will name Speedy got there quite quickly. If the same situation happened during a D-Rays/Royals game no one would know anything of it. Yet again the media blows a small incident during a Yankees/Sox game way out of proportion.

what if that was a little kid going for that ball....would Sheff have acted the same way????  Also, to me it looked like that guy was trying to get out of the way once he saw Sheffield going for it, he just didn\'t do it in time.  Media=wayyy overhyping this inncodent

You\'re right Dave. I feel the exact same way about Sheffield.
