I've been thinking the same thing. That would be awesome.

Remember in '04 when the Sox were down 3 games to 0 against the Yankees (who I hate almost as much as the Cowboys)? I was a HUGE Sox fan that series, and their comeback against the Yanks was AWESOME. Then they got up 3 games to 0 in the WS, and I have to admit.... I really, really wanted to see them choke and lose 4 straight. THAT would have been the best choke job EVER and the curse would have lived on.

I have to respectfully disagree. I can think of nothing more important football-wise than shutting up Mercury Morris.

Giants are playing Tampa Bay Sunday, Giants play much better on the road than they do at home. Giants will win and then have to play the Packers in GreenBay, where they will have to do something special in order to win that one.

Actually, I'm beginning to think that nothing will shut up mercury Morris.

Best. Post. Ever.

I never thought I'd live to see the day where Boston Sports became more hated by the rest of the country than NY. I love it.

Oh, yes, and the Celtics' 27-3 start is the best 30 game start in the shot clock era.

What's a Celtic? Is that like hockey or something? Cricket, maybe?

(Sorry shabi - only kidding)

Oh, and for the record, I like Boston teams. For me, Philly teams are #1, Boston is probably #2 or #3 (probably behind Chicago, but certainly in the top 5), New York is VERY low on the list, and Dallas is DEAD LAST.

But still, how could you not root for the curse? The curse was awesome!

Its funny the things the"curse" brought out. I remember the year the Cubs were deep in the hunt and I said to another Sox fan that I hoped the World Series wouldn't be the Cubs vs the Yankees, because I'd have to cheer for the Yankees. He was aghast and asked how i could possibly cheer for the Yankees.

My reply was "you want the Cubs to win a World Series before the Red Sox? I don't."

Fortunately 2004 & 2007 have now made it possible for me to cheer for the Cubs if they ever play the Yankees in the WS.

Now, the Billy Goat curse, there's a curse.
