Sports can often needlessly divide us along silly lines. But, at its very best, sports can bring us together. Here are two really cool examples of sports serving as a unifying force in the face of the atrocities at the Boston Marathon.

From the New York Yankees:
For those of you who aren’t intimately familiar with the inner workings of the sports world, the Yankees have arguably the biggest rival in sports with the Red Sox and Chicago’s hockey team isn’t exactly best of friends with the Bruins. But this week, other things reign supreme. Boston Strong! 617!
The Patriots still suck.
Obvs. They’re a bunch of cheating assholes. And they’re not even really from Boston. It should read, “We are Upper Midwest Patriots.”
