What do you guys think about this "curse" perspective

I don't believe in curses, but isn't
it weird that................................

1- The Red Sox did something to Babe's Yanks
that has never been done before in the history of
baseball. The improbable comeback finished in
"the house that Ruth built"

2- Babe Ruth wore #3. Last nights final score
was Boston 3 St. Louis 0

3- The final batter in last nights game to make
the last out to end the "curse" was #3.

    The curse is broken, but what triggered it. Curt Schilling? What is peculiar about him that broke the curse. Throughout the playoffs, everything Boston touched turned to Gold. All the moves they made, turned out for the best. That was the spooky part.

    As for the Yanks, things really went wrong for them. Rivera failing in something he normally excels in. Brown got a win against Minnesota, but got lit up by Boston for some reason. That did not make sense. Brown is good big game pitcher and he really just messed up. Unbelieveable!

    It was strange how the Yankees lost, but they lost in such a way as to baffle logic, thus the curse must have definately ended.

    I am not a believer in curses, but there was something strange about the way the Sox would lose. Beating the Yanks in their house, the one that Ruth built, winning for the first time in 86 years - 86 being the prev WS appearance and loss, the 19-8 loss in game three - which was one digit off 1918 and the last loss in the post season for them - all of those were reasons to believe that a curse was broken.

    The main reason however is that they are finally CHAMPIONS.

    Is 2000 the same for the Yankees as 1918 was for the Sox? The Yankees do not have the class they once did. Arod is an overpaid punk.
