The Question Of Divine Intervention
Skip Sauer on the improbability of the way the Red Sox won:
The odds against LLL-WWWW-WWWW in a sequence of coin flips are 2047 to 1. Yes, Sox fans, deliverance from the curse of 1918 was a near miraculous event.
Actually, as I recall, when we add the Division Series against the Angels, the sequence was actually WWW-LLL-WWWW-WWWW.

Does that mean the Sox will next win in 2047?
Hey, I might still be around. So might baseball.
