The curse isn't dead yet
You actually have to win the World Series before Babe Ruth rises from the dead and brutally murders Johnny Damon.

6. It most certainly was Will.
My older brother Tom, RIP, was a Yankee fan as kids growing up in Chicago and God love him, he always reminded me that my birthday was the same day as Mickey's.

Red Sox in seven and JK will win this election. Count on it...

4. I think they should have..............
Bill Buckner throw out the first pitch! That would show "the curse" that they're not afraid.

7. Cloud Nine is not yet open for business

The Curse says the Sox haven't won a World Series since 1918, not they haven't beaten the Yanks in an ALCS series after being down 3-0.

It will be fun to remember this series, but it won't mean the proverbial jack unless the WS pennant flies over Fenway this year.

Then, well, it will be Cloud Nine, and Ten, and Eleven....
