This is the year that the Curse of the Bambino was exorcised, and done so by coming back from 0-3 (with the Yankees themselves!) to get the Pennant. Which was remarkable, given fact that baseball players are formidable practitioners of black magic and whatnot.
Of any year not to trust the mojo in American sports, this is the one.

But that is all according to Gnollguy's plan! The RedSox win this year and the Cubs will win next year over the Yankees and then the Yankees don't make it to another World Series for over 100 years. It would be too heartbreaking for Cubs fans and Sox fans for one of the teams to lose to the other one so they couldn't both make it to the Series this year.
And I figure GG's allowed to put that hex on the Yankees because he's allowed me to hex the Buffalo Bills. Although I have finally allowed them to go to the Super Bowl in 2008. It used to be they were never allowed back, but I'm a nice person. ;)
Intolerant monkey.
