Of course most of you live in states that are full of unpatriotic terrorist-coddling commies that do not think the start of America's war for independence is worth commemorating.

Just kidding.

I'm taking the day off and going to Concord for the festivities.

Of course! Just show up and let them know you're a Jets fan and I'm sure they'll give you a nice red coat and let you go to the front of the ranks. :)

The Boston Marathon winners:

Men: Robert Cheruiyot KEN 2:07:14
Women: Rita Jeptoo KEN 2:23:38
Men Wheelchair: Ernst Van Dyk RSA 1:25:29
Women Wheelchair: Edith Hunkeler SUI 1:43:42

Top American finishers:
Men: 3. Meb Keflezighi 2:09:56
Women: 13. Emily R. Levan 2:37:01

So much for this being the year the Americans take back the race. There was some hype to that effect, but smart money's always on the Kenyans.
