One of my favorite book series is The Lord of the Rings. It is a riveting tale of a person’s journey to destroy the evil that has plagued his world and the things that he has to overcome to achieve that goal. There are obviously much deeper things that J.R.R. Tolkien hoped to have drawn when he wrote those books but for the sake of brevity and the fact that I’m trying to draw a metaphor for the 2016 Reds, that’s about as deep as I’ll get.
Throughout the movie adaptation of these books, you get a great sense of the weight that this task not only has on Frodo, but on the community that is relying on him.
