Each year the Red Sox start out strong. The problems that plagued the team last year seem to be patched up this year. April, May always seem like good months, on pace with the Yankees sometime ahead. Interleague play always a let down. 500 or maybe bellow. small slump (start player gets hurt) after All star break then slowly the wheels start to come off every so slowly. Bit by bit cracks develop in what was suppose to be "The Team". By September, they are making a last minute push to get close only to drop in the end. This is the life cycle of a Red Sox fan. Year in year out. As regular as a change of seasons. And Each and Every April...no matter what happened the year before we think...this is really going to be the year....You know what?... I still believe it!!! This could really be the year!!!.... I am either sick, grossly over optimistic witha bitter heart....or Just another Red Sox fan.
