Curse of the Bambino

Watched The Curse of the Bambino on HBO last night. Pretty interesting show, I learned a lot I didn't know. Just wondering how much stock you all put in the Red Sox problems being attributed to trading the Babe to the Yankees for $125K in 1920.

Not a bad question, but further proof that drinking and posting isn't a victimless crime. I guess this was the best link I could find to root root root for the home team, and Nixon was the man Saturday night.

GO SOX!!!!!!!!

good point, tonight's the deciding game, and I dunno who to root for. As much as I hope that the A's will kill the red sox, I kinda want the sox to win so that the yanks can do that. Just this once I'll root for the sox.

I give up

I'll never watch the sox again

Little should be fired for leaving Pedro in till it got tied up.
Should have been pulled when it was 4-2

Ok, maybe I'm being too harsh.....I will watch the sox again, but only after Little is fired. He cost us the world series. They would have beat Florida.
