Being from Boston, I first looked at the article on the front page of the Times about the Red Sox. "From Cruise Control to Panic Mode in Boston and Atlanta" was an interesting and thorough analysis of the teams' demises at the tail end of the regular season. Discouraging, yes, but still interesting. The writer used strong language to convey the ups and downs of the Red Sox history. I particularly appreciated the line, "A collapse this season could even rival the horror of 1978, when the Red Sox blew a 14-game lead over the second half of the season and lost to the Yankees in a one-game playoff that turned Bucky Dent into an expletive in New England."
Since I was already in the B-Section of the paper, I continued to glance at articles in this section. On the front page of the Business Section was an article about Facebook, which seems to constantly be in the news. Last night on the 11:00 news was a segment about the changes to Facebook, similar to this article. Facebook is such an often used website that I think we sometimes forget that it is also a major business enterprise and that changes to it have significance in the constantly changing business and technology worlds.
