a hearty congratulations to the Red Sox Nation on a historic win . . .
not only did you guys beat the Yankees, you humiliated them . . . besides being a great win for what is obviously a great team, this is also a collapse of historic proportions for New York . . . which may not be such a bad thing if it makes Steinbrenner rethink the way he's been shuffling players in and out over the past few years . . .

anyhow, I hereby pledge my support to the Sox in the World Series . . . let's end that curse once and for all so my friends up in New England can die happy . . .

Go Sox! . . . :)

Since the Babe Ruth trade:

Yankees: 26 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

Red Sox: 0

4. hey . . . they EARNED this victory . . .
true, the Yankees lacked pitching . . . but they still won 100 games this year and are among the best teams in baseball . . . and the Sox humiliated them in their own ballpark . . . the Yankees were three outs away from winning the series -- TWICE -- and couldn't close the deal . . . they didn't deserve to win it this year . . . the Red Sox did . . .

and I have a hunch that this will be the year that the curse is broken and the Sox go all the way . . . and I'll be rooting for them . . . great team with a lot of character and a lot of heart . . . they never gave up . . . the Yankees did . . .
