Congrats, Jake!

And I'm running Memphis, too. If I don't die in NYC this weekend after wearing Red Sox gear for the marathon. Having survived the Marines, I think I'm good to go.

grins,

Dude. Red Sox gear in New York??! You better BRING the Marines!

Like you Yankees fans have much to bring to the table this year...
Sack up and run.

Yes, I'm a Yankees fan. No, I'm not talkin' smack. I've just been to the city a lot and seen what happens when somebody shows up with Boston gear on (doesn't even have to be Red Sox). Mets, Yanks, Rangers, Islanders, Giants, Jets, Nets, Knicks. They each abuse the other's fans, but they ALL hate Boston fans "with the fiery heat of a thousand burning suns".

The Marines would probably be welcome company for you - just sayin' (as long as they're not New York Marines). Wink

I've been to the city a lot wearing Red Sox gear and nothing happened.

Probably doesn't look any more out of place than tourists wearing "I {heart} NY" t-shirts.
