Congratulations to all New England!
It took an act of God, or at least, a conspiracy of numbers. Consider this:
The number 86 means to kill or exise (or tresspass).
The BoSox had their biggest humilation in 1986.
It has been 86 years since their last World Series win.
The RedSox won exactly 86 regular season games the last year they won the World Series, in 1918.
And if that isn't enough....
From the CNN web site, regarding the eclipse...
>Once in total shadow at 10:23 p.m. ET (7:23 p.m. PT), the moon might turn a shade of *deep red that frightened the ancients*
-- an eclipse that was ending just as the final out was made.
And in case you aren't scared yet....
The player who made the final out was made by Renteria, wearing jersey number #3. That was the same as Babe Ruth's number.
And then there is the classic photo of Schlinning's bloody sock, his "Red Sock."
It takes a bit more than magic to dispel a curse. It takes an act of God.
With affection to all New England.
