“One of the greatest comebacks you’ll ever see” You might think this quote is referring to the historic 2004 ALCS comeback by the Boston Red Sox, well in the NESN Faith Rewarded DVD this little quote is from Charlie Steiner the Yankees color man referring to that blackest of games in 2003. That’s right; the NESN DVD starts us off with the Aaron effin Boone homer and how Grady Little went to the mound in the 8th and forgot to bring a certain someone with him back to the dugout. Faith Rewarded does a great job of doing just that, taking us from the lowest of the low and then rewarding us with the highest of the high.

Ahhh; 2004. I have a feeling sox fans will be clinging to that number for quite awhile. I’m not saying Boston will not win another championship for a long time, I’m simply putting it out there that many fans still have not come to grips with what the hell happened that magical October in 2004, and just how amazing it was. For me it hit me when I picked up the “Faith Rewarded” DVD and just sat back with a few beers. I had this smirk on my face the whole way through, you know like the one George Bush uses right after he say’s something completely serious but then throws that inappropriate smirk at you.
