Red Sox Nation Wins Gold

Red Sox love is alive and well on the moguls in Vancouver. Hannah Kearney, the Vermonter and women's mogul dynamo who picked up the first US gold medal of the 2010 Winter Olympics, told NBC's Bob Costas on Sunday that she was sporting her Jacoby Ellsbury shirt during Friday's opening ceremonies. On the men's side, Duxbury native and diehard Sox fan Michael Morse sliced his way down the course to "I'm Shipping Up to Boston" on Sunday night. NBC reported that Sox pitcher Jon Lester was in the crowd to support Morse during his qualifying run earlier in the day. Why? Morse threw out the ceremonial first pitch on May 19, 2008 - the night Lester threw his no-hitter against the Kansas City Royals. Listen, all we're saying is that you're not hearing any reference to pinstripes or A-Rod.
