NTFW WARNING: (Not Tasteful For Work)
This season, the Yankees caught fire after two events, perhaps coincidental, perhaps not. It is not our providence to judge. We merely report.
The team went on winning streaks after:
1) A death spree of beloved celebrities, starting with Ed McMahon, Fred Travelina, and extending to the near fatality of Walter Cronkite, whose desperate evasion of life coincided with a return to our losing ways.
2) The tragic, accidental break of the Pope's wrist, an event that prompted Yankeeologists to wonder aloud if the Holy Father had been using the appendange to pray for Yank defeats.
Why do we mention this sordid business? Not because we want to. Because we must.

Today, two sad obituaries cleared the wires.
Al Martino, 82, "the ultimate wedding singer."
Captain Lou Albano, 76, a wrestling legend.
Good omen? Bad omen?

It is not for us to say. We merely report.
Pope's wrist? No word.

For all we know, he's playing handball.

Has nobody mentioned how good this is for us? Every great win streak was off of a celebrity death or a papal crippling.
We are unstoppable now!
