Red Sox to Boycott Japan Trip

[Kurn]

In the end, I'm glad they worked things out.

To underscore something GTDawg said:

if they can avoid flying 8000 miles right before the beginning of the season...they'd really like to avoid it.


If you've never flown a long way for a short business trip, you have no idea how tough it can be. I once went to Australia to host a 3-day business conference and, though I enjoyed my 4 1/2 days Down Under, most of it was work and the travel was brutal. Boston - Gold Coast is 30 hours door-to-door.
