Matt Savage stood in the chill outside Fenway Park, elated and a little dazed as he greeted the World Series champion Boston Red Sox. He ruled out going to work for now, but he wasn't worried about job security. His boss was standing next to him.

Congratulations, BoSox fans. Your time has arrived. The Curse has been broken once and for all. No longer will you be taunted by obnoxious Yankees fans waving signs that read only &quot;1918.

A year ago, when the Boston Red Sox clinched the wild-card playoff in the American League, a number of their players reacted as if they had just won the World Series, jumping around and spraying Champagne.

Mark Buehrle waved his cap as the crowd stood and cheered him, some chanting his name. Manager Ozzie Guillen gave him a hug and now everyone will wait to see if it was the stylish left-hander's final game for the Chicago White Sox.

It was about the Yankees taking care of business, or maybe it was about the Boston Red Sox not taking care of business â-gain. One Red Sox fan outside the Yankees&#39; clubhouse was

It just never stops around here. The Red Sox finally win their first World Series in 86 years. People are buying Red Sox dog bones for their furry friends and every other Christmas card in the mail includes a photo of the commissioner's trophy (you'll be able to borrow the thing for your son's bar mitzvah by June). We have ...

Tim Jarrett understands what I'm saying. What a great Superbowl, and what an opportunity for Boston sports fans to learn the value in losing. What? Value in losing? You bet.  It wasn't that long ago when Boston was one of the best cities in the USA for sports precisely because Boston teams were such spectacular losers. I'll never forget the misery of the Dowbrigade after the Red Sox lost something (or did they win, I forget). They must have lost because he swore he'd never let them break his heart again the way they had for his whole life (he's about my age). Losing teaches you that there's more to life than winning, and that's the best lesson possible and it's the one lesson you keep needing to learn over and over until you lose everything, which like it or not is what we all do in the end. People write poetry about losing, great music is composed about lost causes. Who writes an ode to winning? They're too busy getting drunk or getting laid.  Never have I loved a team more or felt more kinship with my fellow fans than when our team goes down in flames after a season of great ups and downs. No doubt there are no smiles or tears of joy in Boston today. But there is hope. And that, even when you win, is all that's left after a great season.
