What was he thinking. 
As for Mulder and the Broadcasters maybee now they will give us some props. Probably not but a little would be nice. All the Yanks in the lockerroom were humbled I thought.  |

I'm still wondering why the Ghost of the Babe was lurking around Shea back in October of '86 Shea was a flippin' junkyard when he died (and you could make a good argument that it still is )
Does it still lurk around BU's football field, which used to be Braves Field? I mean, that's where he ended his career.
Maybe that's the reason the Braves have something like 13 straight division titles with only one Series win (and they had to play the freakin' Indians to get that one). |

 By the way , speaking of ghosts.....the Red Sox beat the Yankees on Mickey Mantle's birthday. Maybe there's ANOTHER curse in the making just for the Yankees  |

Probably, I live in one of the dorms in front of that field and there are rumors about babe's ghost roaming about...not that I believe them of course, though I'd prefer him over at fenway park more than here  oh yeah, congrats  |
God grant that I may live to fish until my dying day,
And when it comes to my last cast, I most humbly pray,
When in the Lord's safe landing net I'm peacefully asleep,
That in His mercy I be judged, as big enough to keep.

I used to work and live around Nickerson - there is no curse.
There is no curse at Fenway - never was
There is no curse!
There is no curse!
There is no curse!
There is no curse!
It's a way to sell books and papers - there is no curse (and I'm a superstitous person and there is no curse  ) |

I really don't believe much in luck, curses, secret mojo etc.. I think you make your own "luck" with the skills you got available to you and your desire to take it to the oponent. Hey I used to think Tiger Woods was lucky when he first came on tour. But I don't think that any more.
Sox won this last series with superior pitching and the longer the series went the more the law of averages work out. (Matsui, Schefield etc.. weren't going to keep hitting .500 as more games were played)
You can have all the luck. I'll take the team with good offense, good D and most importantly the best pitching.

The Curse is a way to get around saying your team just wasn't good enough to win!!!
