Subject: [Leica] OT: Way to go, Sox !

Just read a column in the Florida Times-Union (Jacksonville), where the 
writer argues that there is no curse on the Red Sox (for my fellow European 
LUGgers, there is a legend that the Red Sox have been cursed since they sold 
the Pele of baseball, Babe Ruth, to the NY Yankees in the 1920s). Rather, he 
attributes their consistent record of failure in the past 80 years to the 
fact that they have often passed on signing promising black players due to 
racism, and that they play in a decrepid, old stadium.

But the curse legend is admittedly more fun...Anyway, congratulations to the 
Bostonians and condolences to the New Yorkers.
