Well, I guess my response to that is The Rangers were jinxed in Hockey until they won it in '94.

The Red Sox were cursed by the Bambino until 2004.

Mickelson was jinxed in golf until he won a major tournament.

As Pedro Martinez (regretfully), would say: "I don't believe in damn curses. Wake up the Bambino maybe I'll bean him in the ass."

That's my take on it. This is a franchise that I think, with Livan Hernandez, with it's relatively middle-of-the-road farm system, that I can recover quickly, and be competitive with.

Obviously right now, third base is my issue.
