A sweep would be sweet. Thank goodness for the Yankees with the nonsense that's going on with the hockey Rangers........my doctor told me not to watch or listen to these hockey playoffs...... Not recommended for heart recuperation! Lol.
lol, what we turn to for stress relief, often turns on us, induces stress, the not so silent killer. I'm on my 33rd yr with Hypertension pills.... touche- pass the valium, - ....what the FDA won't let no one dispense it, lol... There's a chapter in the book "Bums" (by Peter Golenbock) which speaks of Yanx, Bums and Giants Fans, and how death becomes us, with deadly skirmishes b/t fans, and a knife fight in the produce section of a grocery store, b/t a Yanx Fan, and a Bums fan, during the 55 W.S. left the Bums fan dead; bleeding all over the lettuce. A die hard Bums fan, who ate his TV dinners in front of the TV in Brooklyn 1953, watched every moment of his beloved Bums during the year, and into the 53 World Series, when the last out was made He threw his beer at the TV, said "you dago bastards" and died as the beer hit the floor, a heart attack and a broken heart. He never lived to see his bums beat our Yanx, serves him right, for taking the game so seriously, ??? maybe not- 'dying men draw numbers in the air, dream to conquer little bits of time'.....

^^^^^so true! I' m sure I have related the story between my Dad, a staunch Dodger fan, and me, the ever faithful & idolized Yankee youth. Yes. My Dad bled Dodger blue in '53 as my Yankees beat his beloved bums in WS, but he did live & gloat as Johnny Podres shut out my Yankees in '55 game 7 WS. I learned at a young age how quickly 'the worm turns'. Then again, in '56 I knew sweet revenge. But the cruelest cut for my Dad was after the 1957 season when the Bums left Brooklyn for Los Angeles, CA. That broke my father's heart most of all.
Thank goodness we will not see Carter batting as 1B ..........not contributing with his bullshit ABs!
I got bad vibes about that Ellsbury fuck up, view things like that as a momentum changer. Hope the offense wakes up.
I am getting off my arse to salute The Judge......... too bad Didi cannot hit a left hander to bring The Judge in....
