God knows how many people line the streets of lower Manhattan to watch a parade, to bid goodbye to a curse, to chant "Heave, ho, two in a row" with a Player's Player, and to beg "four more years" of a coach (and a bunch of us joined in at home). Though only 28 of the 29 Men are present (Corey Hirsch misses the day for some unknown reason), they are nonetheless a beautiful representation of something very special -- Americans, Canadians, a Swede, a Finn, and even four Russians for the first time, all coming together for one common goal: to walk together forever.
May they always.
Heave, ho!
