I'm Shipping Up to Boston

If you are not from New England, then this will be new to you. It seems that every professional team in the New England region follows the same trend. That trend is winning. The Boston Red Sox have been crowned World Series Champions 2 out of 4 years, the New England Patriots have won 3 Super Bowls in this decade, The Boston Bruins made the Stanley Cup playoffs after a season of hard work and injury and the Boston Celtics had a 66 win season as well as knocking the Atlanta Hawks out of the NBA playoffs. Well, The New England Revolution has been in 4 MLS Cup finals, losing all four. They are the Buffalo Bills of Major League Soccer. However, a new tradition has been set at Gillette Stadium. If you do not know, when Boston Red Sox closer Jonathan Papelbon enters the game at Fenway Park, the song “Shipping Up to Boston” by The Dropkick Murphy’s is played. This song is a trademark for Red Sox Nation, but now is a trademark for Revolution Soccer. Now, every time the Revolution score a goal in Gillette Stadium, the same song “Shipping Up to Boston” is played. The New England area has the best fans for football, baseball, soccer and basketball. These teams have been successful in the distant past, the present and hopefully into the future.
