Just a friendly reminder to all my Yankee chums on DU:

[Kathy in Cambridge]

The CURSE is OVAH!

But we still can't stand the Yankees!*










*with the exception of Jeter and Mussina, who are too good-looking to hate!

[WindRavenX]

1. Well, here's to the next 86 years of kickin' your ass!

I'll take those numbers! :evilgrin:
And I can't *wait* to see RJ bitch slap that tubby Bush bot Schilling!

2. understanding the Curse of the Bambino

red sox fans came to believe that the Curse of the Bambino meant that the red sox would never win the world series again ...

what they still don't understand is that the Curse really is that they will only win the world series once every 86 years ...

ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ...

[WindRavenX]

4. Like Haley's Comet!

:evilgrin:

[Princess Turandot]

3. Hey, it ain't just Jeter..

the Evil Empire has the best looking infield in the majors, especially if Tino is at First and Flaherty is catching. (A-Rod is good-looking enough for me.) Carl Pavano isn't too hard on the eyes either!

As good as it gets!

Womack doesn't due much for me, but you can't get everything you want! And I might cross the street if I saw RJ walking towards me!




PS: Take heart in the fact that if 'Cro Magnon Monthly' ever gets off of the ground, Damon might be their first Centerfold!

PPS: In keeping with the so-far amicable nature of the forum, here is a photo which I took outside of Fenway a million years ago!




PPPS: My sympathies on David Wells. He has the talent of course, but he is a seriously bizarre guy!

6. Oh dear.

You must have missed the memo. The Red Sox are due for another 86 years of losing! :)

7. 9-2.

Only 161 more games left to go. \o/

8. Let's GO YANKEES!

:bounce:

9. Geeesh, such an outpouring of Yankee ferver

As a fan of a small market team, it seems to me that rooting for the Yankees is like rooting for the Country Club golf team to beat up on the local townies with their old wooden clubs and poorly maintained public gold course. Yeah, winning is fun, but geesh, when you own most of the marbles, and can afford to buy any new ones you need at a moments notice, how much fun can that be? (Ah, but I'm sure you'll tell me.) :)
