At least we're in the top 5

Nice going Ryan Hall on Marathon Monday. He recorded the fastest time for an American in the 114th running of this treasured Boston event. But why can't we win? Are we spending more time watching sports from the comfort of our sofas instead of playing them?

I can't say I am doing much to help our cause. While all those runners are sweating and struggling the 26 miles from Hopkinton to Boston, I was watching the Red Sox lose miserably to Tampa Bay. With a beer in one hand and a sausage and pepper sub sandwich in the other, it was a strenuous afternoon of eating, drinking and wondering what’s wrong with the Red Sox?

Again, congratulations Ryan : 2 hours, 8 minutes and 41 seconds, excellent time for an American. That’s just a few minutes more than my ride on the Greenline from Park Street to Kenmore Square. Maybe next year I’ll take a cab!
