Will the Whining Stop?

Let me say this first: I was pulling for the Red Sox over the Yankees and I really want to root for Boston during the World Series. But before I do, I need all of you Red Sox fans to make me a promise: If the Red Sox win the World Series then The Curse is over. No matter how many more times your team may lose to the Yankees in future playoffs, no matter how heart wrenching those losses may feel, a World Series victory this season means you can no longer blame The Curse? Okay? Do I have your word?

A letter of forgiveness to Bill Buckner might also be nice, but honestly, I'll take what I can get.
