Sunday Globe Special: City of Champions

"After championship drought, a delirious deluge; Since 2001, the exceptional has become the expected in this sports-mad region" by Eric Moskowitz  |  Globe Staff, January 29, 2012

Seven championships, four sports, one town, 10 years.

Who could have seen that coming?

Now the Patriots are in the Super Bowl again, a bookend to a decade for the ages, touching off waves of nostalgia and reminding of a time when duck boats carried only tourists, not champagne-drenched champions. 

Like last spring when the Bruins won the NHL title?

Winning may never get old, but it can never really be new again....  

Yes it can if your city hasn't won a title for a while.  How quickly the Globe forgets!
