I laughed when he said that, too. Strictly speaking, he's right, of course, and I guess that "destination" and "destiny" aren't that far apart in either pronounciation or meaning. I'm glad he won the MVP, but I don't know how they couldn't have given it to Curt Schilling. I know it's hard to give it to a starting pitcher who usually only starts every 4 or 5 days (rarely on 3 days rest in the playoffs), but what Schilling did out there on that mound with blood oozing out of that "surgery" was inspiring - and I don't usually use that word to refer to a multi-millionare playing a boy's game. But I digress. Congrats to the Boston Red Sox. It was a long time coming. I'm happy for them, but even more, I'm happy for their fans, who've stood by them all those years. Next year, the Cubbies!!!
