Red Sox Fan Down
I was sitting here one day, as I tend to do in the afternoon, watching "Sports Center." It's baseball season, and they show highlights of all the games, and I sit and watch, happy when my teams win, disappointed when my team loses. The Yankees won again. But on this occasion, a highlight brought a tear to my eye. There was no inspirational story, no one was hurt or killed. But one sign caught my eye. "Who's Your Poppi!?" Those three words made me cry, because in the background of my house, my little brother was no where to be found. The silence was unbearable...I know he'll be home soon, but soon for me feels like forever. So to the silence, through my tears, and in a whisper to the screen...the answer I know wouldn't fail to come from my baby brothers mouth..."David Ortiz"
