Three years ago I saw the funniest bumper sticker ever. It said
THE BABE'S CURSE
IS Y2K COMPLIANT

[Chu Gary]

"when the Bosox finally win the World Series again. And when will that be?"

Curses have a tendency to last at least 100 years. Make yourself comfy, you have at least 17 more years to wait.

Oh No!!! Make that "No, No, Nanette."

Thank Harry Frazee for your long wait.

Author is delusional if he thinks that this year will be any different from the last 89, but he is right about one thing: Boston truely does suck.

Doesn't matter. My Twins were better than both of you last year and with luck will be just as good this year. :)

Play ball!

One of them would seemingly have to win, but that would violate a fundamental law of the universe
It would be a sure sign the end times are near.
Go Giants!

The Giants and Dodgers created a riveting clash of fans, too, which survived even the move of both teams to California. But these rivalries died away,

died away! BS... The Giants Suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta love those Twins fans...

I remember reading a similiar story about, I think, South Carolina in this country. I think you and I have talked about this a lot lately. Canada is a great country full of people who are indistiguishable from Americans. Quebec is a problem and I wish you guys would just let them seceed already.

Fair enough.

LETS GO RED SOX!

Seriously, I guess I'll explain so it doesnt look like I'm being a smart-ass:

When I was a kid, I grew up in the East Bay of Northern California. I grew up in the heyday of the Whiners and for whatever reason they irritated me to no end (still do infact). My allegiances with the Giants were pretty much set in stone since I used to freeze to death at Candlecrap Park during baseball season. But I didnt have a football team I could call my own.

So my uncle who was living in Los Angeles at the time took me to a Raiders preseason game. I'm not sure what is was about the Raiders, the Silver and Black, the motivational mantras of "Just Win Baby!" and "Committment to Excellence", or that I had the opportunity to annoy other football fans by sporting Raider colors, I was hooked. And I've been ever since.

Anyway, as Dennis Miller says, "Its just my opinion. I could be wrong".

I didn't think you were being a smart ass before but thanks for the additional explanation.

I am a San Diego native and loyal (unfortunately) to the Chargers and Padres. I am now living in the land of cheese where Packer fans drive me nuts. Ironically, I have found that most Packer fans are not Brewers fans, but Cub fans.

Thanks for the offer. Hope you league fills up, but I gave up Fantasy Baseball years ago and noticed a positive change in my quality of life. Its just too time consuming for me.

[WaveThatFlag]

Meant to add: I am enjoying the HELL out of watching a real live baseball game tonight! God Bless America!!!
