Boston Victory Assured

I wrote a long post about the Curse of A-Rod and the pure joy of the David Ortiz Game 5 steal, but for some reason it's been dispatched to Internet purgatory. So it goes.

As it stands, I'll be the first to throw my support behind the prediction of Bill "Spaceman" Lee, who forecasted that the Red Sox will triumph over the Cardinals in three and a half-games. To quote the man himself, after the ALCS "all karmic energy will transfer to north of New York City" and the Cardinals, so distraught after trouncings in the first three match-ups, will refuse to take the field for the final four innings of game 4.

The Red Sox certainly seem to have the momentum, but I do fear the middle of the Cardinals line-up.
