TRIVIA OF THE DAY
— newyork.yankees.mlb.com
THE MORNING BREW Bruins and Red Sox strengthen Boston
Just as sports have deeply affected our lives, the events of this past week have shown how greatly our lives can transform sports.
Days of gut-wrenching events and stories unfolded in front of our eyes, with little we could do but watch. Our emotions wavered with the ebb and flow of the events. But through such tragedy came an incredible wave of support. And it was often carried through the beauty of sound
In the days following the marathon bombings but before the capture of the suspects, the city of Boston came together for a Bruins hockey game. It was a statement that the city would continue forward, courageous and strong in the wake of terror. Singer Rene Rancourt began the National Anthem amongst a crowd of heavy hearts. But what happened next nearly brought me to tears.
As Rancourt sang the first few lines, he could sense the crowd singing along. The volume grew, and he lowered the microphone for all of Boston to sing along. A crew of more than 17,000 at TD Bank Garden sang boldly in unison as Rancourt led the emotional chorus. The scene brings chills.
The sounds don't stop there. Major League ballparks around the country honored the city of Boston with music at their venues. The song "Sweet Caroline" is the popular song from the Red Sox's Fenway Park. Fans across America stood together to sing and support Boston by playing their song.
During Boston's first game back at Fenway after the suspect's capturing, against the Kansas City Royals, the song played again in its home venue. This time, Neil Diamond, the artist of "Sweet Caroline," flew to Boston to sing it himself. The crowd erupted in delight and sang proudly along with him. The sounds of normaly returned to Boston, and the fans sang louder with pride and passion for their resilient city.
Before the game, Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz gave a speech to the crowd. He praised authorities and the police department for their job during the past week. But what he said next, the sounds that shook Fenway Park, are the truest testament to the passion and resiliency of the city that endured so much the week prior.
"This is our f***ing city," said Ortiz, with the whole crowd and country listening in live.
The crowd absolutely erupted. Perhaps
it was the most acceptable public use of the word in recent memory. It struck a chord with the Boston faithful, and frankly, it did with me as well. I am as firm as it gets against the word's use in public, but for the city, for Boston, for the message that the city and country will always stay strong, I thought it was appropriate.
It was true passion from one of Boston's most famous representatives. And I'm sure he was just the one who had the courage and the platform to say it. He's right; that's the Boston way.
"And nobody gonna dictate our city";
Ortiz said. "Stay strong."
