-- Curse of the Bambino is in full effect

Curse of the Bambino is in full effect

In a barn burner the Yankees win again. A lot of series to go, but sure looks like that curse is lingering on. Discuss.

To anyone that actually believes in curses, you need to get out more. They simply got out-pitched.

And to save Mr. Mystery his valuable time, sports discussion forum.

I don't believe in curses, I'm just a big Yankees fan and want to get underneath the skin of the Sox fans. It's fun to talk a little trash about sports. Don't think Sports Discussion forum would get enough coverage for my purpose.

What's up DiMethGuy?

considering the Yankees pitcher had a perfect game til the 7th, I'd say the Sox did great for at least making it close....

hahahah, if you would have heard the phone convo my boyfriend and I had 10 minutes ago, you�d crack up. he drives me f�n nuts w/ all the sports he watches and we were coming to a compromise about tonight and the game.

him: �so are we gonna spend time together tonight? we can sit on the couch and cuddle and watch the Yankees game�

me: �that�s funny, really�

him: �haha, baby! it�s game 2!�

me: �look, u watch your game, I�ll do my homework, you don�t have to worry about me getting mad cuz you�re watching sports and not paying attention to me�

him: �well how about this. I don�t really care about the beginning of the game, so you can have me for the whole night until around 9:30 or 10:00, and then I�ll catch the end of the game, how�s that�?

me: �ok, fine�


he doesn't even like baseball that much. he's so competetive, he'll watch anything sports related. i don't understand. if they had cockroach racing, he'd watch it.

True that. I was sweating it a little. But there's a weird feeling of comfort when the Yankees play the Sox in a playoff series. A time comes for everything, but I don't think this year is the one for the Sox.

I hardly watch any baseball until the postseason. That's when it actually becomes fun to watch. I've been a Yankee fan since the eighties when they were terrible, but in the last decade or so I've become spoiled. I didn't even watch their first series, because I knew they would win that one. This one against the Sox should be really exciting though. I will plan on watching most of these. I agree with your bf about the beginning of the games. Right around the 6th or 7th inning is where it gets interesting, usually.

I was in NYC Last summer and i went to a Yankees game! I like baseball so that was cool!!

The game sucked however, i cant remember who it was against and what the final score was. it was LOW AS HELL, it was like 8 - 4 in the end or sumthing, the yankees lost.

But the Yankee stadium was cool


Posted by itsTrueSonic on Oct-13-2004 16:25:

i believe in curses. and i will not believe the curse still exists until i see a guy with glasses and headphones take a ball from a red sox outfielder, causing the hit to be a home run.


Posted by Mebot on Oct-13-2004 16:32:

the only thing i can think of is how bad the Yankees lost to the Indians this year. 22-0

and its only game 1, there's still 6 more to go (assuming they're both tied then)

I'm going to watch the games if I can and see what happens


Posted by Slylee on Oct-13-2004 16:34:

the only thing i can think of is how the marlins beat the yankees last year in the world series

If by "curse" you mean "suckiness" and instead of "bambino" you mean "red sox" then yes, the curse lives on.


Posted by NiteMer on Oct-13-2004 16:51:

They sure did lose to the Marlins, but they can't win every year. I'll take one every couple though.

suckiness doesn't exactly get you to the ALCS after sweeping the Angels.

Who WOULDN'T watch Cockroach Racing?



I hope the Red Sox win. My apt is right next to Fenway, and I'm going to be at party central if they pull it off. If not, my place'll probably be looted then burned.

Why does your location say Denver, USA, then?
