Not a bad year

I cannot believe it. Everyone of my teams won this year. THIS YEAR! ALL IN THE SAME YEAR!

Anaheim Ducks, Manchester United Red Devils, Boston Red Sox, Florida Gators NCAA Men's Basketball; and now the Saskatchewan Roughriders! I guess the possible exception is the NFL, but even there, I have been hoping for the Indianapolis Colts to win it all if my numbers 1 and 2, the New Orleans Saints and the Oakland Raiders, didn't.

The Ducks fulfilled my boyhood dream, Manchester had not won since I began following English Premier League football and Boston was also thrilling after many earlier disappointments. I hoped for a repeat for the Gators for a whole season, and I have died with the Colts a few times. And, though I don't follow the CFL very closely, I have cheered for the Roughriders since I was a wee lad. How amazing they came through this year. How amazing everyone did!
