I was in a sports bar on thursday night. A yankee fan had a t shirt that said the following:
"Get over it, Red Sox. There is no curse. You just suck." It went over my head. The guys I was with thought it was hysterical.

Quote:
The Curse Of The Bambino is that the Sox sold Babe Ruth to New York for a bag of stale peanuts and an empty beer bottle. Supposedly that is why the Sox never win the Series and the Yankees win every other goddamn year or so. Personally, I think it's because the Sox rejected Jackie Robinson in 1945. He went on to play for the Brooklyn Dodgers two years later. But what's cursing the Dodgers is not known.  The Cleveland Indians are just basically fvcked. The Colavito Curse has been cited (a young Rocky Colavito was traded at the height of his career in 1964 -- I still remember my father and the uncles and cousins cursing Frank "Trader" Lane, then-manager of the Indians.). But I don't think that's what it is. I think God just isn't a Cleveland fan, and the fact that they have a racist team logo isn't helping them any with Him. (I still have a bit of affection for Chief Wahoo, personally, since he was the icon of my childhood, but I strongly believe that if a team logo offends a group of people, it's not worth hanging onto. I have been called some interesting names because of this viewpoint, but the scoffers are welcome to kiss my Irish ass.)

what's cursing the dodgers is that we don't have an orel hershiser in the lineup
or anything near as tough as kirk gibson we just suck ass, but the giants suck worse then we do, and that's all that really matters

Hershiser is one of my favorite people in baseball. Anybody who could break Don Drysdale's shutout record is a force to be reckoned with. I liked him when he played here. And I loved him in the '88 Series.

Mr. Sparticle proposed to me during one of those Series games in '88 and I was so drunk and so annoyed at a temporary lapse of control on the part of one of the Dodgers' relievers (I forget exactly who) that I said "Yes". I think it came out more "Yeah, yeah. Goddammit, did you see that?!?"
And yet I am still a Dodgers fan.

heh heh heh -- thanks kindly.
 He made me re-agree/reiterate the next morning when I was sober, as he was smart enough not to trust anything I said when drunk, aggravated and watching baseball. He's a rare breed, that one. They definitely broke the mold.

Listen, anybody who could put up with me for fifteen years ought to have his own church.
