It may "sox" to be Boston, but the Yankees can't take anything for granted. Their bullpen "sox" and Mariano Rivera is only a shadow of what he used to be. I cringe every time he's up in the ninth inning.

The LowSux stranded 17 runners yesterday. LOL....That must be close to a record.

There are 85 years of angry passion here, 85 years of failure.

Imo, the only way Boston is going to exorcise The Curse is for the Yankees to make a deal similar in stupidity to the one Boston made in 1920 (with the LoSux being the beneficiaries this time, of course).

Iow, it ain't gonna happen.

Millar writes a diary for MLB.com and made this observation this week about life in Boston: "It's almost to the point where the media is waiting for you to fail. The radio shows, the TV shows, the newspapers, want you to fail. You almost get that sense."

Here's an idea: Stop bitching and worrying about what people say and write. .......and start performing.

At one point in my youth, I thought Baseball was a sport, now I realize that it is (in areas) a religion. As far as the BoSoxs vs NYY, the comparisons between this and Voudou are striking.
