There is an endless stream of cars running down Meridian St. in East Boston with Algerian flags out the windows blaring on their horns.

Crossing the Charles on the Red Line after dark

Dan Tobin was facing the Citgo sign on the way home from Cambridge this evening:

... It's a landmark I invariably associate with the Red Sox and tonight I realized that, no matter how the season ended up - with us as champions or the hated Yankees taking the crown - this is the time of year when baseball is in hibernation. It won't be long before being outside itself is a chore and means braving the nasty winter that comprises half the Boston year. It made me a little sad facing up to this reality. But it also made me thankful to know that one day the Sox will come back, the cold weather will lift, and the city will become a beautiful place once again.

Capuano gives a thumb's up to the Yankees

KennedySeat.com reports US Rep. (and Senate hopeful) Mike Capuano voted yes on a measure to congratulate the Yankees on their World Series win.

In fact, so did Reps. Frank, Lynch, Tierney, Markey, and Neal. Olver and Tsongas voted "present," McGovern didn't record a vote. Only Delahunt had the courage to vote "nay."

New sports blog covers Boston public-school action

Justin Rice reports his BPSsports.com will cover all the activity at local public schools - and give high-school and college students a chance to commit some journalism. He starts with a look at South Boston High's only female varsity football player.
