10/28/2004: "Cursed and Cursing"

The last World Series I paid attention to was the AZ Diamondbacks vs. the NY Yanks in 2001. It was difficult to cheer for my home team against NY immediately following the devastation of 9/11. The victory was dulled by a sense of guilt that we had kicked NY while they were down.

I thought I was going to feel the same way this year about Boston. First they would loose the series and then John Kerry would be defeated. And we would feel that we were kicking Boston while they were down. But the Sox have given a joyous gift to all of us. (St. Louis fans excepted.)

With the euphoria of the Bambino Curse lifted, America’s cursory look at cursing, John "F’ing" Kerry, and subsequent dismissal will now seem trivial to them. Take him out of this ballgame. Four more years.

Now onto important matters, read what Bill Gertz has to say about the legitimacy of the explosive NYT Al "Ca-Ca" story.
