BACK IN THE SUMMER OF '49: Even though Gawker's Elizabeth Spiers is reporting this week from Boston, she still let this little nugget slip through yesterday (emphasis mine):
Hear David Halberstam read from his book, The Teammates, about the championship winning 1949 Boston Red Sox, at the Upper East Side Barnes & Noble at E. 86th Street.
Oops. Although really, if it had only been 54 years since the last championship rather than 85, would Sox fans hate themselves any less than they do?
