I moved to Seattle from Boston 10 years ago today. With my beloved Red Sox playing well and looking like the front runners for winning the World Series, I came to the realization that if they pull it off again this year, it will be 3 World Series Championships in my lifetime, all of which occurred AFTER I left Boston. It isn’t like the Sox weren’t good when I was living there, it is just that they were getting caught behind the Yankee dynasty and couldn’t overcome it. I will count 2003 as a year in Boston, since I was there for most of the time, but here is how the team fared in my time back east vs. my time in the land of salmon and rain:
Years | W-L | PCT | World Series | Playoffs | Winning Seasons |
1991-2003 | 1081-959 | .530 | 0 | 4 | 9 |
2004-Current | 898-702 | .561 | 2 | 6 | 9 |
Not really a point to this, just marking the 10th anniversary of my move to Seattle with something vaguely sports related.
Oh, and this:
