The Boston Red Sox may have a two game advantage, and they have beaten the Yankees. They think the so-called Curse is broken. They’re wrong. Because of their shaky fundamental play, it’s only beginning to come into play.

Bambino, Bucky, Buckner, Boone and now Brown. The irony in it all, Brown didn’t help the Yankees, he cursed them. The man shipped over to mitigate the bleeding of losing Clemens, Pettite and Wells ends up injecting a powerful shot of opium into Yankee fans across the country. The sad end to the most storied dynasty in the history of sports took place on Wednesday, October 20, 2004.

I shed a tear for the Cubs fans, but what about the other 21 teams who missed the playoffs?

As of late, my life includes little suspense. The next silicone blonde to get the axe on the bachelor or the vegetables rotting at the bottom of my fridge haven’t exactly kept my nights restless.

Why I know that the Yankees will win the AL pennant. (written 2 weeks ago, forgot to post)

  Monday morning, 2am, the news comes through over ESPNews that Ken Caminiti, a former NL MVP has passed away at the age of 41. Shocking news before even more shocking news that Christopher Reeves has also passed on. Two great people not living on this earth anymore. It’s a shame that when you think of a man like Caminiti, 6 feet tall, 200 lbs, that you see this powerful athlete in tip top condition only to have his life taken away by a heart attack.

A little over a week ago, I was in Ann Arbor, visiting this guy Bill, one of Jennifer’s friends from New Hampshire who is a doctoral student at the University of Michigan.  Bill wanted to take us to the Big House to see a Michigan-Iowa game, and since my appreciation of big-time college football had previously been limited to a few NC State games and such Division 1-AA epic wars as Hofstra vs. Northeastern, I was salivating at the chance to experience a real college game, amid 111,000 spectators at a packed-to-the-gills Michigan Stadium.

Is there a better team in the MLB right now then the Anaheim Angels? Someone please tell me if there is because right now, the Angels are playing like the team they should’ve been all season long. Let it be clearly documented that I selected the Anaheim Angels to reach and win the World Series. I have written it down in many of my articles, and have been speaking about the subject boisterously since the beginning of the season. Now I don’t mean to sound arrogant, but I’m living this moment up to the fullest. Shower me with love, for I, at age 14 and barley through puberty, am truly a sports genius.

Although the MLB season is not over and in fact has some of its most exciting games sure to come in September and October, it is never too early to debate the best of this season.

On the 18th of June, 1815, Napoleon Bonaparte’s great army fell victim to the combined forces of the Allied Armies at the Battle of Waterloo. In 1876, Lieutenant Colonel Custer lost his life at the hands of more than 10,000 Native Americans at the Battle of Little Big Horn. And a Greek force hidden in a large wooden horse once besieged the Trojan Army.
