Lifetime Sox fan, but also a student of the statistical side of the game. Watched the 2004 WS from afar (I now live in Australia) with great joy and with my eyes half covered. Looking forward to the 2006 edition, which will surprise some I think, and maybe even win it all again. I enjoy most the individual exploits of the heroic few who dare to match the records of previous greats, and am hoping that the Rokcet will pitch -- and be good or even great -- for one final year.
