One thing looming in my mind: the Bosox came back from 3-0 down, if The Curse exists, they'll lose the next four straight.... THAT would be irony beyond compare... :sweat:

Yeah, then they'd REALLY be cursed, it would be eery. Like Schilling's leg gives out, and they find Pedro OD'ing the next morning or something. Barring the exceptional supernatural (aka The Grudge II: Babe Ruth Style), the curse is over.

Lunar eclipse on Wednesday night

Tuesday, October 26, 2004 Posted: 2:58 PM EDT (1858 GMT)

CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida (AP) -- Earthlings are about to be treated to a total lunar eclipse, just in time for Halloween.

For more than an hour Wednesday night, the moon will be covered entirely by Earth's shadow and resemble a glowing pumpkin.

With the Earth passing directly between the sun and the moon, the only light hitting the full moon will be from the home planet's sunrises and sunsets, thus the orange and red hue.

It will be a late-night show for people in North and South America and a pre-dawn display early Thursday for those in Europe and western Africa.

Aside from their entertainment value, total lunar eclipses give scientists a chance to assess the quality of Earth's atmosphere. Ash from volcanic eruptions, for example, can make an eclipsed moon look much darker. The recent eruptions of Mount St. Helens in Washington have consisted of far more steam than ash, and therefore the moon should appear bright and coppery red on Wednesday night, NASA said.

The next total eclipse of the moon will not be until March 2007.

gJU-ON: a curse born of a grudge held by someone who dies in the grip of powerful anger. It gathers in the places frequented by that person in life, working its spell on those who come into contact with it and thus creating itself anew.h

25 men, after giving up a 3-0 lead in the American League Championship playoffs, die mysterious deaths in the grip of powerful anger. They gather at Yankee stadium, the place of their humiliation.

the cardinals look pitiful again, its the top of the 8th, boston 3-0.
good thing, i'm not a cardinals fan. I was hoping for a astros-yankees world series but that goes down the drain awhile back.

Before this series started, if someone told me the Cards were going to get swept, I'd laugh. Looks like this really might happen. Hard to imagine such a great offense just got tamed. Anyways, someone put the champagne on ice! :hehe: :hehe:

They just showed the Bosox starting pitching stats: Schilling-Martinez-Lowe pitched 20 innings and NO earned runs given up.

That will get it done. :D
