I don't suppose so. And I WANT them to win. Of course, I'm from the South. We grew up thinking the Curse of the Bambino was that nasty bout of gonorrhea called the "Stomach Ache Heard Round the World".
I salute the Sox. They won despite the fact their MVP is a little known center fielder name of Charlie Manson. 8 games in a row. Wow. Enough to make one scrawl DEATH TO THE PIGS in human blood on the walls of the LaBianca house. Or something.
Who won the World Series? Who cares? The Yankees lost.
