The Curse of the Matsui Getting Stronger

It's been over 60 days since the New York Yankees last won the World Series, and the curse of the Matsui seems to be getting bigger and bigger. The pressure from the fans and media built immediately after the Yankees decided not to resign the World Series MVP. The Red Sox had to deal with the curse of the Bambino after getting rid of Babe Ruth, and the Yankees are now dealing with similar spirits.

"It's one thing to get rid of Babe Ruth because nobody knew exactly how good he'd be" said ObnoxiousYanksFan2000 on an internet message board. "However, there's no excuse to giving up on the World Series MVP. The World Series Gods are never going to send their good spirits ever again after disrespecting them like that."

At first, many people didn't pay attention to the curse, as they thought the Yankees were just going into a slump. However, the longer the Yankees go without winning a World Series, the more and more people are jumping on the bandwagon and joining the Facebook group.
