Was there really an actual spoken curse of the Babe
Did he indeed mutter a curse upon the Sox, and if so what were the exact specifications of the curse?

Just curious, as I heard about the curse on the cubs from the guy with the goat (http://www.hnn.us/articles/1674.html). Here there was actually a curse: "Never agin will World Series be played in Wrigley Field."

Any such specific language on the Curse of the Babe?

Asking while it still isnt moot.
