2. BoSox & Kerry
I hope so!!!!! Maybe it's an omen or a sign from the God that is obviously not whispering in Shrub's ear. I suspect its a voice from within from his crack/alcohol years but that is pure speculation.

Go Sox!!!!!!! (and I'm not even a Bostonian!!!)

Has everything finally come full circle?

5. This is actually really important.
Not just because of the whole Boston karma thing -- which I do believe in (and I'm a Yankees fan no less).

I read somewhere that if the Series would have gone 7 games, it would end on Sunday. That would mean that the parade could be on Tuesday, which could have potentially hurt turnout in New Hampshire.

Don't get me wrong, I doubt a Boston mayor would make a mistake like that -- but you never know.

10. Ask the Yankees about being 3 games up
I'll bet all the Sox are hyperaware of this.

15. Takes great pitching to come back and win 4 in a row - Sox have it -
Cardinals don't. Sox may not sweep but they are going to win. Bank on it. I knew the curse was over when the Cards had runners on second and third with none out, got a ground ball to second and the runner on third gets caught in a run down for the second out. I think the Sox may have vanquished the curse when they won game four in the ALCS after a ball bounced into the stands for a ground rule double and kept the Yanks from scoring what probably would have been the winning run. I could swear I saw the ghost of the Babe jump onto the field and kick that ball into the stands at Fenway. Did anyone else see that?

Will the curse be lifted? It looks good. Go Red Sox!

13. actually, I think it was that kid living in

he took several for the team!

14. The damned curse would be extra potent if
The BoSox, up 3-0, become the second-ever team to lose after leading a series by this margin. You KNOW the Yankees would all have a big chuckle----and bring it up again and again for the next sixteen years.

And it would be made even worse if we had not one, but FOUR Buckner moments in in each of the next four games....think about that!

Don't tempt the baseball gods, or the Bambino, with cocky talky right now---You'll be sorrryy!!!!!
