25. I fell in love with the Sox back in 1967

when the Impossible Dream team beat my Twins for the pennant on the last day of the season. They played so hard and gallantly that I just couldn't hate them. And the Sox had been pretty downtrodden for a long while before that.

I also lived in Boston when I was in grad school and went through the unspeakable heartbreak of Game 6 in 1986. So the Sawx are near to my heart.
