...and I couldn't be happier. You have to be thrilled that the perennial doormats, the Tampa Bay Rays, have made it it to the World Series. And what makes this win special is that they beat the current World Champions, the Boston Red Sox. Boston is your classic arrogant, big moneyed team and I love to cheer for the underdog.

The finances of Red Sox owner Harry Frazee were spiraling downward and in trying to right his financial ship, Frazee sunk the Sox. In the most infamous transaction in baseball history, Frazee got out of debt by selling Ruth to the Yankees, giving birth to the "Curse of the Bambino," a long-lamented reason given by Sox fans for the misfortunes that always seemed to overtake their teams at crucial times and derail their efforts for a championship.But Frazee didn't stop with Ruth. He gutted his franchise over the next few years by sending the Yankees Hall of Fame pitcher Herb Pennock, and solid players such as Joe Dugan, Everett Scott, George Pipgras, "Bullet" Joe Bush and Sam Jones without receiving adequate compensation
