I'm sure most of you have seen this by now, but figured I'd get your opinion.
On Sunday night at Opening Night at Fenway, 5 yr old Joshua Sacco recited a monologue from the movie Miracle where Kurt Russell inspires the 1980 US Olympic hockey team to beat the Russians. He changed the teams and sport but pretty much nailed this and for me was very cool to watch on TV. My wife and I were laughing and clapping while we watched as we were entertained.
This morning on the local Boston news, people seemed to be offended that the Red Sox allowed a 5 year old to say "Screw em" on national TV at a baseball park. I think people need to lighten up and find a real topic to get upset about.
Below is the link off youtube and an article from todays Herald.

World Championship team.
BTW what did the Yankees think of this and the NY area in general? I would think they maybe more offended by this than anyone else.

I too thought it was hilarious!!! That kid really gets into it!!
the way this idiot describes it, it sounds like andrew dice clay jr was doing nursery rhymes...i wish these people would use their moral indignation for important issues
what is offensive about screw em!
I wave to all my Friends... Yeah!
They should have had the kid say "fuck em!" instead.
I bet if you sat in his seats at a Red Sox game, you'd hear FAR worse stuff around you several times during the game.

i saw it and thought it was funny.
people with no sense of humor really irritate me.

That was the best part the look on his face.
