| | ESPN.com - MLB/PLAYOFFS2004 - A 'Curse' born of hate |
 | | A new edition of the The Curse of the Bambino, featuring a cover photograph Ruth, has just been published. |  | | The "Curse" was cute, a clever, near perfect cure-all that made losing a badge of honor and every Sox fan a martyr on a crusade to right a wrong. |  | | To be fair, local sportswriters occasionally floated the notion of a Red Sox-related curse, from Peter Gammons' 1981 reference to "the Fenway Park curse of the Yankees" and Dan Shaughnessy's 1986 mid-season mention of a "dueling curse" involving both California Boston, but the concept had no protagonist and little traction. |

 | | Bambino's Curse captures the day-to-day experience of being a Red Sox fan, an experience marked by more lows than highs, but in the end, one that has its rewards. |  | | After that game, George Vecsey of the New York Times invoked "the Curse of Babe Ruth." Four years later, "The Curse of the Bambino" entered the lexicon when Dan Shaughnessy of the Boston Globe published a book with that title (Fatsis, Wall Street Journal, October 15, 2004; Page W12). |  | | The rest, dating back to the blog's beginnings in February 2001, can be found in the Bambino's Curse archives. |

 | | The Curse of the Bambino is nothing to be trifled with -- it's been a blight on New England for over 80 years -- but keeping all of Red Sox Nation in a state of constant depression takes work. |  | | As Gibby rounded the bases, Vin Scully intoned, "In a year of the improbable, the impossible has just happened." But as you shall see, when the Curse of the Balboni is invoked, nothing is impossible. |  | | I think the other one has a better chance of success: release Mike Piazza, and hope he takes the Curse with him. |
