Bad Omen: The Jersey Shore Gints Win

As everyone knows, when the New York Giants eat prunes, the New York Yankees enjoy a blowout victory.

It's the equilibrium of America. Because the cornfed, trailer-hitched, USA-chanting sports lugnut cannot accept the truth of his utter financial exploitation by the Goulds and Morgans of Wall Street, the Illuminati long ago decided that New York City must never rule in more than one major sport at the same time.

The Giants represent Old Guard NY -- Yankees, Giants, Knicks, Rangers -- which therefore must attain a win-loss equilibrium. Thanks to the overwhelming, long-term incompetence of the Knicks and Rangers, (for the Knicks to win the NBA, the Yankees had to suck for 10 years) the world lets the Yankees win. But if the Giants abruptly succeed, the Yankees must fall. It is the law.

(BTW, whis is why the Mets suffer: Over the years, the Jets, Nets, Islanders and Devils have been too successful. At least one team is always winning, and there isn't enough room for the Mets. )

The 2010 Yankee collapse began the day the Giants beat Carolina. For the next two weeks, the Giants appeared to be safely horrible -- signifying a Yankee World Championship.

Last night, something terrible breached the Matrix. Instead of playing the Chicago Bears, the Giants played the Cubs.

Thus, instead of facing the Twins, we might have to deal with the Minnesota Vikings.

If so, trouble. Paging Jim Fassell.
