There's tremendous enthusiasm. Some of the ordinary metrics you use are ticket sales, and they're well ahead of last year, but you really want to use the anecdotal metrics, you want to hear what people say to you as you're walking down the street, and they're thrilled that you have Coco Crisp and they're thrilled to see what Josh Beckett looks like in a Red Sox uniform ... you can certainly feel the buzz throughout the Boston area, and I trust, throughout New England.
