There is no jinx (fingers crossed)

I had a sneak peak of this week's SI on their website - awesome article about Mr. Papelbon! And they've captured that closer glare so perfectly.

Magic number 2 - we potentially could clinch the East title tonight. The Yankees sealed up the last playoff spot last night. The sight of them spraying champagne and Torre crying all over the YES reporters....quite a contrast to the subdued and classy way the Red Sox celebrate.

Of course, that decorum could be jettisoned tonight if the Sox realize their pre-season goal of winning the Division.
