I will say this.  Ronan Tynan was the only aspect of the Fourth of
July festivities that didn't show off America's military power.  From
the veterans to the jet plane flyover to the martial music from
previous wars, I was struck by how much the 4th was now associated
with war.

One of the the things I love about baseball is the way that it
reflects the community.  For example we have the Brockton Rox and
Irish American day and we have the Worcester Tornadoes and  Cub Scout.
 We also have the PMC tribute at Fenway (which always makes me tear
up).

Our baseball games reflect what is important to our community. And I
was really struck by how much we've allowed war and military power
define America.
