Yankee fans! It's not to late! Put your hands on your monitor and be saved!

The Red Sox will finally win the World Series because they have Jesus on their side. To break the dreaded curse, God has sent his only son to play centerfield! To help break the curse, wear the above necklace during every game of the playoffs and the World Series!

Instructions:

1. Print out the above pictures

2. Put them back to back

3. Laminate them together

4. Punch hole at spot provided

5. Attach string and wear!

It's that simple! And after we are celebrating our World Series victory, you can hang your necklace on the Christmas tree as an ornament!

Go RED SOX!

I have to say what I am sure a lot of people think: the Boston Red Sox have got to be one of the ugliest, scruffiest, ill-kempt team to ever play in the World Series.
They outdo the Oakland As of the 70s.
If I have to look at those nasty beards, and shoulder length mops for a week on TV, I'll just throw up.
Other than that, they are a good team.
Hope Houston wins.
Then, the Series will mirror the election: Texas vs MA.
Should be a hoot.

1) I am a Yankees fan
2) However I am hoping you guys go all the way. You guys really came back from this and that's a sign of a strong team (no matter how much I hate Pedro).
3) I am not sure Jesus is a Red Sox fan... if he is he hasn't been on your side for a long long time

I am not a fan of the Cardinals, Astros, or RedSox, but the real series is over. The NY Boston series was the real series for this year. Nither the Cardinals, or the AStros will be the RedSox this year.

"The Red Sox will finally win the World Series because they have Jesus on their side."

Get real. Everyone knows Jesus is a Yankee fan. That being said, congrats to the Red Sox on a well earned victory that made the Yanks look like chumps.

However, the curse is still in effect so I am betting heavily against the Sox in the World Series.

The Sox will choke. They may choke in the victory parade, but they'll choke.

I would love to see them go all the way, but beating the Yankees almost makes the World Series anticlimactic.

I am also a huge Patriots fan and that is the one thing that has me a little miffed. Around here everyone wants to talk about the Red Sox, even in the off season, and pay little attention to the greatest Pats team ever.

They continue to make history with every win and no one around here seems to notice.

Let's root for our Sox, but lets give a little love to what NFL history may remember as one of the Great football teams of all time.

Sox, Pats, it's great to be a Boston fan. All is right with the world.

I like Johnny Damon, I really do. But every time I hear someone mention his looks, he's described as a closer resemblance to Charles Manson, not Jesus Christ.

It's comforting to know that whether the Red Sox or the Cardinals win, it looks like a red team will win the World Series.

And Red States will win the election.

Come on now......all you have to do is add up all the points scored during the games and it's plain to see that... THE YANKS WON!

Sincerly yours,

The Red Sox will never win the World Serious again until they first defuse the Curse of the Bambino by using the money they got for his sale to erect a statue of him at Fenway Park (it is well-deserved, considering his role in leading them to their success in the Teens). Similarly, the Cubs must overcome the Billygoat Curse in the same way, by embracing and turning it. How about a billygoat mascot?

We have got to keep Kerry away from Fenway! We want to break the curse and he looks like a curse. We are doomed if he shows up.

Man it's gonna be tough to root for boston if they end up playing houston. Ya know, with sKerry being from Mass and GW being from Texas, this is going to get played up big time.

Pullease. The greatest World Series in years would be one where the two scruffiest and scrappiest teams of major league baseball would duke it out -- the Astros and the Red Sox. Both red teams by the way. I'm an Astros fan -- been one since they were the Colt 45s. They're due. More so even than the Sox.

What Would Johnny Damon do

(Oh, I don't know, maybe a grand slam and a 2 run HR
to win the pennant?)

From the Wikipedia entry for Johnny Damon:



Damon gained some notoriety for the prominent beard and long, uncut hairstyle he brought with him to spring training in the 2004 season, contrasting with his previously clean-cut appearance. His new look, probably coupled with the runaway success of the recently-released Mel Gibson film, The Passion of the Christ, inspired fans and sportswriters to draw good-natured comparisons between his appearance and that of Jesus Christ. Fans with center-field seats at Fenway Park began showing up with fake beards and wigs to support their favorite center-fielder. Even Bronson Arroyo was seen with a t-shirt that read 'What curse?, We got Jesus on our side'.

On May 21, 2004, Johnny shaved his beard in a charity event sponsored by the Gillette razor company. The proceeds from the event went to benefit literacy programs in conjunction with the Boston public library.

As a part of his exercise routine, Johnny admits to pursuing cars from one end of his block to the other on foot. "I live on a street (in the Orlando area) where the speed limit is 25 miles an hour and the police enforce it. At night I'd wait out there and when a car came by I would race the car home, so I think I can go at least 25 miles an hour. I scared some of the people, seeing a caveman racing after cars," said Damon in a Providence newspaper article early in 2004.
