Can you explain the curse? I know there is one but I don't know what the mythos is; is it to do with Babe leaving the Sox for the Yankees and they haven't got to the World Series since?

ETA: Nevermind... I found this:

In 1918 the Red Sox won their 5th World Series, the most by any club at that time. One of the stars of the Boston championship franchise was a young pitcher by the name of George Herman Ruth, aka The Babe or The Bambino.

In 1920, however, Red Sox owner Harry Frazee needed money to finance his girlfriend's play, so he sold Babe Ruth's contract to Colonel Jacob Ruppert's New York Yankees for $100,000 (plus a loan collateralized by Fenway Park).

Since then, the Yankees, who had never won a World Championship before acquiring Ruth, have gone on to win 26, and are arguably one of the greatest success stories in the history of sport.

Meanwhile, the Boston Red Sox have appeared in only four World Series since 1918, losing each one in game seven. Many consider Boston's performance after the departure of Babe Ruth to be attributable to "The Curse of the Bambino."

The curse is a lie perpetrated by evil Yankee fans. :P Ain't no such thang... :D

We'll win. No worries. WAHOO! Yankees SUCCKKKKKKKKKK!!!! :D
 
To quote our good moderater Marly's friend: If the Red Sox win the World Series then there never really was a curse... they just sucked for 86 years.

Although I disagree with her, I find it amusing
 
Guys, the Red Sox can't suck. They're in the World Series (and winning it)! :lol: Silly Yankees fans... when will you even learn? ^_^

Look its about time that the curse ended... and as a Yankee fan you have to admit it hasn't been too bad for you; you got 86 years of World Series dominance...

The sun is finally shinning in Fenway... its about time; you should want them to win... after all isn't it better to have been beaten by the team that win the World Series than the team that make it but end up losing.

I was never complaining about being a Yankee fan...I love being a Yankee fan. (y)

It doesn't really metter to me either way who wins this year's World Series. But I'm never going to say that I want the Sox to win. I don't want them to win just because they beat the Yanks. I don't like the team, why would I want them to win?
