2004: End Of The Curse

2004 is the year when the red Sox will kick some yankees' asses (finally).

here's a great quote:

``I'm not sure I can think of any scenario more enjoyable than making 55,000 people from New York shut up,'' Curt Schilling, Red Sox starting pitcher.


LET's GO RED SOX !

This curse is real. Someone should start sacrificing goats every year on the anniversary of Babe ruth being traded.

I will literally cry for 7 days if the Sox don't win the World Series. I was at a restaraunt tonight and was screamin the whole time at the tv. Waitress was cool though, actually had a Sox logo tatooed on the small of her back, so she was yellin along with me. Rest of my friends weren't as loud though, they kinda sat there and gave me some weird looks.

Yeah, the worst thing was the final score. But there's always tonight's game...Go Pedro!

Jeez, tough call: to watch the presidential debate or Sox/Yankees game 2?

Plus, The patriots broke the world record for most games won in a row- at 19-18. The year we won the world series. May the curse fall in shambles.

I've got my bible, rosary, crucifix, and Jimi Hendrix albums.

Now all I need are plane tickets to Boston.

Looks like we're farqued. Again.

I hate how the Yankees are so proud of themselves for beating us for the 92nd year in a row. I mean, doesn't it get boring eventually? They're just going to win this and probably win the World Series. Again. Because they buy every damn player in the MLB.

Argh, I'ma watch football.

And Hockey is locked out...

Sports just aren't much fun this year. Of course, if you're a Detroit Lions fan, you are having a series of heart attacks at seeing them on top of their division.

Well, hating on the Yankees is like hating on the Nazis; it's correct and just! But then, the BoSox have a streak going, and you must respect the streak -- tradition and history are important, we wouldn't want to vary from that at all.

The curse lives, stronger than ever, apparently. Not only are mediocre starters Pedro's daddies, but Schilling, arguably one of the best aces in the game today, somehow comes up gimpy? Boston must have some bad karma.

With hockey gone, and basketball ruined, at least the NFL provides quality spectacle; nothing like being a Colts fan and watching Peyton bring the heat every given Sunday. Now, where's that defense hiding?
