SYDNEY, YOU'VE WORKED WITH A NUMBER OF ICONIC ACTORS--REDFORD, NEWMAN, STREEP, JANE FONDA. DID YOU KNOW EARLY ON WHOM YOU WANTED FOR THIS MOVIE...
Joyner does reach 147 ft. 9 in. on her next try, and no opponent today will come close. But she needs another 10 ft. in the javelin to beat Jane Frederick's American heptathlon record of 6,803 points. She hoists her last throw too high. It noses up, catches air and falls short.

But there's no way a Yankee fan would want to watch this. Everyone in the park is a Sox fan." I mused to that, no matter how big this Red Sox thing got, the team still did belong to us-the folks here in Fenway and our grandmothers watching on NESN in Bootbay Harbor, Keene, Cheshire, Storrs, Woonsocket, Chelmsford and everywhere else...
