" X is not part of the equipment and it can be dangerous, even like
hanging somebody. The decision was unanimous. There was not even a

board today but, before, by all the technical staff and by the secretary-
generals. It’s a non-issue. “

The Curse of the Bambino was a superstition evolving from the failure of
the Boston Red Sox baseball team to win the World Series in the 86-year
period from 1918 to 2004, began after the Red Sox sold Babe Ruth,
sometimes called The Bambino, to the New York Yankees in the off-season
of 1919-1920.Before that point, the Red Sox had been one of the most
successful professional baseball franchises.
Red Sox fans attempted various methods over the years to exorcise their
