Wear Boston Gear Day — Send Prayers and Love to Our Fellow Americans

The tragedy that struck Boston yesterday has really hit home. Some of my family is from Boston, even though they don't live there anymore, it saddens my heart to watch what happened to them yesterday. I am claiming today to be National Wear Boston Gear Day.

Most of you may already know I'm a huge Boston Red Sox and Celtics fan, I grew up rooting for both of these teams and have considered the people of Boston my family.

My prayers go out to all the people of Boston, the friends and families of those injured and killed, and those who were affected by the horrific tragedy that struck downtown Boston yesterday.

Today, I am sporting my Boston Red Sox throwback jersey along with my Boston Red Sox American Flag baseball cap to support our friends over in Boston. I ask that you do the same.

If you own any Boston Red Sox, Celtics, Patriots or Bruins gear, sport it to show your support of this city.

I claim this day official Wear Boston Gear Day by the power invested in me by the state of Massachusetts (which I don't have).
