Win It For ...

Who should the Red Sox win the World Series for?

Everyone has their own ideas. This is something that has been floating around a number of sites since the Sox started coming close to winning the World Series. I first saw it on the boards I belong to at the Remy Report. Check out the thread.

It was started after one of the RemDawgs saw a much longer thread on the Sons of Sam Horn message boards. Check out the thread.

And the Sports Guy's column continues the idea. Win It For Everyone.

As I said in the Remy Report boards, here's who I want the Sox to win it for:

* Win it for my grandfather, born in November of 1918 and passed away in June of 2002. Win it for my grandmother, so she can tell my grandfather all about it when she meets him in heaven.

* Win it for Tim Wakefield. Curt has been super-human, but I can't think of a current Sox player who deserves it more than Tim Wakefield.

* Win it for all those who hit hard times and can't see the light at the end of the tunnel. Win it to show them you should never give up, you should never stop believing.
