Red Sox Join It Gets Better Project

Today the Red Sox put out a very important video that I thought I would share with you guys today. The Red Sox have joined on to support the It Gets Better Project. This is a project against bullying of any time. This is a video of encouraging thoughts to help prevent teen sucide. In this video you see Kevin Youkilis, Jason Varitek and Terry Francona including members of the Fenway staff. It is really important campagin and I thought that I would do my part to help stop bullying by passing along this video.
