Things that make you wonder...

Driving home around midnight gives you lots of time to think. Well last night I came up with this doozy...

Everyone knows about the 1978 collapse of the Red Sox, ahead of the Yankees by 14.5 games, only to eventually concede the division title.

The Red Sox biggest lead over the Yankees in 2007 was...you guessed it, 14.5 games, and shrinking very quickly.

Well let's do some simple math. 14.5 + 14.5 = 29. Now, how many years ago was 1978? Yep, 29 years ago....how about that??
