I can't speak for everyone, but I know for myself the idea of "Bennifer" being a thing again is so deliciously nostalgic. Just uttering the word "Bennifer" transports me straight back to 2002. Let me grab my "Bebe" going out top, platform sandals, and fake Coach purse and fully get into character. But real talk, the buzz around Bennifer is unlike anything I've seen in a very long time. People are rooting for their love as hard as they root for their team in the playoffs. I think it's because it gives people hope. It's never too late to find love and happiness!

So, you're probably thinking, what's the deal with this headline? What on earth does this have to do with New England? Well, as you probably know, Ben Affleck hails from Massachusetts (Cambridge to be specific). JLo Just broke up with Alex Rodriguez who is known for his many years playing on the New York Yankees. I think you know where I'm going with this but I'll spell it out! The Yankees and Red Sox are arch nemeses, it's a tale as old as time. If Ben and Jen start dating again, Ben is a die hard Red Sox fan. Therefore, JLo spottings will be more likely at Fenway park because you know Ben is going to bring his GF to Sox games! Over time, their love will grow stronger and so will Jenny's fondness for the Red Sox. Can you think of a bigger kick in the nether regions for Alex Rodriguez? 'Cuz I can't!

So there you have it, Ben and Jen being back together is a win for the home team. I sure hope it's the real deal and not a big fat publicity stunt.That would be extremely disappointing. They wouldn't do that to us...would they?
