If I'm Wrong,Correct Me

World Series starts tonight at Fenway Park.Could the curse of Fenway be attributed to the fact that Fenway opened the same day that the Titanic sank? Guess the Rockies will rule!

Umm...no, and no.

You're right.Fenway opened on 20 Apr 1912 and the ship struck the iceberg at 1123 on the 14 th of Apr 1912 and sank just after midnight on 15 Apr 1912. But pretty close,huh? Close enough for a curse?

Looks like Ortiz is taking first base... he's been there, done that... but hopefully his lack of speed isn't capitalized upon. And his bat had better be alive.

Re: If I'm Wrong,Correct Me

a true story ask gabe kapler -- once a long while back gabe kapler played for the jacksonville suns AA team detroit -- while here he signed a ball for my near death wheel chair bound father --- to thank him I made him a photo from a photographic neg that I have of of "babe ruth" taking a cut at a ball (babe ruth missed the ball - it can be seen in the catchers mitt) --- and I "signed" it on the back "proof even babe ruth didn't get em all" --- and gave it to him at a later game - kapler went from jax to detriot --then to texas --colorado and then to the red sox -- taking the "babe" with him-- the curse was "that the red sox would never win another world series until the "babe ruth" returned to fenway " --- with kapler the "babe" returned -- american indains were leery of having their photos taken --some said it took part of their soul--- all I know for a fact is that once kapler and the babe photo arrived --the sox won-- true story please write and ask gabe kapler about it --if you have any doubt -- its 100% true --- Ivan Salis

What curse? No curse here anymore. Since the Red Sox had to beat (I mean destroy) the Yankees to get the to the series and win it, the curse is now gone forever. Finally the bounces go their way sometimes and the umps don't always blow it against them any more. Up 2-0 I think the Sox are driving toward another. But, we'll see. Either way there is no curse anymore. Cool story by the way about Kapler.

Tony...I agree, however even after winning in 2004, as a lifelong die hard Sox fan its still hard to shake the feeling of doom and gloom and to not expect some freak thing to happen and undo them. That just was a part of being a Sox fan. Now hopefully they will be starting a new trend for a new generation of Sox fans, that is of clutch performances, never giving up and a gritty clutch ball club that wins championships.... Maybe Babe has haunted Fenway long enough and has gotten bored and now has taken residence up in Yankee Stadium....
