Red Sox fans across the pond

IN LIVERPOOL, England, the epic achievement of the Red Sox doesn't even rate a paragaraph in the newspaper. But at least two Red Sox fans are cheering here.

We've never seen them. We've only been to Boston once, but we fell for the Red Sox Nation magic when we were there this year, and before you know it they make the World Series!

Red Sox fans seemed to us to be the only American sports fans who were like obsessive English football (soccer to you) fans like us. So remember, there's some corner of a Liverpool field that is forever Fenway.
