A holiday like Thanksgiving puts into perspective the silly little obsession we all have with our beloved baseball team in Boston. Today, we celebrate the unimaginable bravery of a band of religious outcasts who cared enough about their freedom to sail across an unknown abyss to an unknown land. The culmination of their quest is the greatest nation in human history—one in which we are all privileged to live. Managers, closers, DHs—they are all fleeting concerns. Today, let's simply be thankful for our heritage and eat.
