New England DUers I loved that bambino's curse thing on HBO
I am a Orioles fan but let me just say this fuck the yankees and BoSox all the way. Now get me a hat and the like :). I didnt realize lol until the end that Ben Affleck was the host heh. I hope you guys overcome that curse. ABY- Anyone But the Yankees :)

1. Not just New Englanders
Babe fans everywhere!

That was a great book, read it years ago.
The BoSox owner *sold* the Babe to NY to
finance his new Broadway show: "No No Nanette."

Boston's suffered from the loss of ML baseball's
greatest player and personality ever since.
The curse is real.

3. You know, living in the Midwest, it was always the plight of the cubs
But, Sox fans, I feel for ya... (How are they doing, by the way? Or did--is their season over?)

7. that special was entertaining
but it hit on it right off the bat.

Tom Yawkey the racist kept the red sox from competing for most of his ownership, not some imaginary boogie man.

Lets Go Red Sox!
