	The Drama of India
		There is considerable confusion concerning the authorship of many plays, owing to the fact that it was the custom to attribute a literary work to the ruler at whose court, or under whose favor, the real author chanced to live.
		Magic and supernatural events have a large part in the action of many pieces: characters are put under a curse, bewitched, or caused to assume the form of an animal or a tree.
		In many of these cases, as in Greek tragedy, the intervention of a god is required to release the victim from his difficulties.

	Curse of the Bambino (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Copyright Baseball Antiquities " target="_blank">http://www.baseballantiquities.com The Curse of the Bambino was an urban myth or scapegoat cited as a reason for the failure of the Boston Red Sox baseball team to win the World Series for 86 years after they sold Babe Ruth, sometimes called The Bambino, to the New York Yankees.
		The phrase "curse of the Bambino" first gained wide currency in 1990, when Boston Globe writer Dan Shaughnessy used it as the title of his team History (Order: ISBN 0140152628).
		Many serious fans grew annoyed by the constant refrain of the "curse" and deplored it as media-created fluff that was good for book sales, television networks, and witty T-shirt slogans, but without basis in history.

	Clay Bellinger - Birthday, occupation and personality
		Clay Bellinger (born November 18, 1968 in Oneonta, New York) is a former Major League Baseball player.
		Bellinger is an American born with Greek grandparents, like most of the rest of that team.
		The Angels' world championship in 2002 when Bellinger briefly played for them is cited as evidence for the "curse".

	Baseball Prospectus \| Articles \| Another Curse Unmasked
		Prospectus readers may remember the Curse of the Balboni, which the Diamondbacks exorcised last November.
		Then-Pirates GM Cam Bonifay undoubtedly knew about The Curse of the Ring when he signed Bell to a cost-efficient $9 million contract.
		The Curse demonstrates the folly of relying merely on empirical analysis.

	New York Yankees - BaseballWiki - A Wikia wiki
		A playoff game between the two teams was held to decide who would go on to the pennant, with the game being held at Boston's Fenway Park (because the Red Sox had won more head-to-head games between the two teams that season).
		One particularly creative explanation jokingly proposed by blogger Larry Mahnken is the "Curse of Clay Bellinger".
		By analogy with the Curse of the Bambino, Mahnken points to the departure of utility player Clay Bellinger from the Yankee roster following the 2001 season and asserts that the Yankees will never again win the World Series until either they make amends to Bellinger or they win the championship anyway.

	HOMILY FOR THE 31ST SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME 1999
		Clay Bellinger is a name not known to most people; even to some Yankee fans.
		This past year, after years of playing Triple A baseball, and working part time in a warehouse, he was called up to the Yankees.
		While reporters ran to speak with Jeter, Knoblauch, Torre and Clemens, Bellinger stood on the side, embracing his wife, content to be a face in the crowd, content to have done his part: My face is going to be in the team photo of the world champions; and it's going to be there forever.

	Talk:New York Yankees - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		According to the VfD debate for Curse of Clay Bellinger that article should be merged somewhere here.
		The Curse of Clay Bellinger is a tongue-in-cheek explanation proposed by sportswriter Larry Mahnken for the New York Yankees' failure to win the World Series since 2000.
		Whether five years is enough to be a drought is up to debate, though one must admit the expectations are still very high for teams such as the Red Sox, the Yankees, the Braves, the Cardinals, and all the other teams who are almost always in the hunt for division titles, league pennants, and championships.

		And still, it will be the Yankees heading off to defend their World Series title while the Red Sox, after an eighth-inning rally fell short, and their fans can only hope for better luck next century.

	Due -- The Hardball Times
		Of course, I’m sure there were very few Red Sox fans who cared (or care) about what the team did in 1912, or Cubs fans who care about being great in the 19th century.
		The Cardinals won their ninth World Series just 23 years ago, and have three pennants since then, but there’s already some buzz about a “Curse of Keith Hernandez,” and the Yankees won their 26th World Championship just five years ago, and some idiot started talking about a “Curse of Clay Bellinger” already.
		And for teams over their fair share of titles, how many years they would have to go without a World Championship to have fewer than their “fair share” (and how many in a row that would be starting from their last title):

	Why I Like Baseball, Complete 2000 Season
		This "Curse" business, you have to take it seriously, if only because at the very highest levels of play, it's the slight mental edge that makes the difference.
		The Sox, no matter how much the players say they don't think about the Curse, you know it has to pop up in the back of their minds from time to time.
		They play in one of the great old parks--though of course there is talk now of building a new stadium, a bigger stadium, which would pull better profits, and allow them to increase the payroll, and pull in more Yankee-killing pitchers, and so on.

	The Baseball Analysts: Making Hay With Jay
		Jay: The short answer is that, in the summer of 2000, the Yanks were having all kinds of problems in their infield due to Chuck Knoblauch's throwing problems.
		They acquired Jose Vizcaino to stablize the position, Wilson Delgado, and even stuck Clay Bellinger in there at times.
		I like to think that's why I've got Sox fans who read my blog or why I read Bambino's Curse or Cub Reporter or blogs about the Twins, the A's, the Mariners, or the Mets.

	News about Pedro Martinez, Red Sox pitcher, for the 2001 Boston Red Sox season (October)
		To the sound of hosannas from the fawning media, Torre went with a veteran-laden lineup last night, playing Paul O'Neill, David Justice and Chuck Knoblauch, benching Shane Spencer against the left-hander Mark Mulder and leaving Nick Johnson off the Division Series roster.
		This was the Yankee bench last night: Todd Greene, Clay Bellinger, Luis Sojo, Enrique Wilson, Randy Velarde, Shane Spencer.
		The watchword is ''uncertainty.'' With their abomination of a 2001 season dead and buried, the Red Sox last night looked toward the future and discovered little more than a titanic question mark.

		If you go to the park a third time, and it happens again, it's still probably O.K. to curse the bird.
		But, if you have a chance to go to the beach, and decide to stick with going to the park, and, when you do, the bird poops on your head again - it's your fault for being a moron when you had a great chance to get out of it (and do something else).
		Either that, or, the Curse of Johnny Damon now supercedes the recently reversed Curse of the Bambino.
