Here in Beantown, we're still celebrating (well, at least, talking about) the Red Sox's taking two of three games from the hated Yankees.<p>It has me wondering, though, whether the rest of the world really cares about this rivalry.<p>For the record, too, Varitek kicked A-Rod's butt. |

Most of baseball-interested North America cares, only in the sense that they like to see the Yankees lose. It isn't out of any love for Boston. |

(How's my old hometown, by the way? Recovering from the DNC well enough? No bombs in the Big Dig tunnel?)<p>Do share the newspaper brawl. <p>Jen |

The Hub remains the Hub - style means more than substance, spent jet fuel permeates the air and some Roxbury playgrounds have become killing fields.<p>The DNC, as far as I'm concerned, was a breeze, though some merchants in the North End and along Newbury Street were whining.<p>Traffic was a non-issue, though I never have to deal with rush hours. Hell, the slowest I went through the I-93 southbound tunnel during the DNC was 65 mph. Most days, I'm lucky if I hit 10 mph.<p>If you're ever back in town, stop by the Herald. |
