ESPN Page 2 - The Sports Guy: Most Valuable Team: "I promised my daughter there would be a payoff at the end -- that somebody on Colorado would make an out, that the Red Sox players would jump on each other and celebrate, that there would be dancing and hugging and everyone would be really happy. She understands absolutes (words like 'happy' and 'dancing' and 'hugging') and understood something special was about to happen, but she had never heard the word 'celebrate' before.' She liked the way it sounded, so she kept saying it. Celebrate. Every time something happened in the last two innings -- a strikeout, a groundball, whatever -- she'd ask me why they didn't celebrate and I had to keep telling her, 'No, you'll know when they're celebrating, I'll tell you when.'"
