12 and 34 Legendary


Does it get any better than this for Boston sports fans. First you see a vintage Tom Brady 4th quarter comeback and then you see a David Ortiz grand slam to tie a game that seemed almost hopeless innings earlier. The roller coaster of emotion today has been ridiculous and I'm sad it's over. All looked lost in the Patriots game when Brady threw an ugly interception with a couple minutes left in the 4th quarter. Then the defense stepped up big time and gave TB12 another shot at leading the Pat's to victory. Brady didn't waste this opportunity, and systematically picked apart the Saint's secondary leading to a game winning touchdown toss to Kenbrell Thompkin's with just 5 seconds left. Speechless. Then a few hours later chances of victory appeared slim during the second game of the Red Sox ALCS series with the Tiger's. Scherzer threw an absolute gem through 7 and things looked grim. Then Middlebrook's doubled, Jacoby walked and Pedroia singled. This set up another legend, David Ortiz, with a chance to tie the game with one swing of the Bat. Ortiz goes yard off the first pitch, the Sox end up winning and once again the sports world was left in awe. Two legends on the same day led their teams to victory with vintage performances that mirrored those of years past. It simply doesn't get better than that.
