It is high, it is far, it is... CHRISTMAS!

Damn. This is just so depressing... 

The Yankees finished fourth in the AL East, third in the Yamamoto sweepstakes... but first in the bidding for Jeter Downs.

We'll return to documenting the atrocities after the Giants get pummeled by the Eagles.

In the meaning, Merry Christmas, all.

All the best to all of you!

it's Hanukah or Kwanzaa
Solstice, harvest or December twenty-fifth
Peace on earth to everyone
And abundance to everyone you're with
Noel or Navidad
Season celebration or just the end of the year
Christmas can mean anything
Peace on earth to everyone!

Well said, Born to Run.

And a very merry Christmas to all. Except Cashman, his analytics staff, Hal, Boone, and Scott Boras. Hope you all get a chunk of coal.

A hearty "HEAR HEAR" to what you posted, JM.

And a rousing "GOOD WISHES" to all here on the blog.

May you all have a very John and Suzyn holiday!

A second ditto for JM's post.

Peace, love, and joy to all.

Except for Hal.

Same here! A very Merry Christmas and a wonderful 2024 to all! Going to watch the greatest Christmas Carol of all, the Alistair Sim one, tonight. Accept no substitutions!

And JM, if HAL, Cashie, and the rest of the Yankees' braintrust did get a lump of coal, well...they would manage to trade it in for magic beans. It can always get worse with those guys, and it probably will. It can't get any better than all of us.

And so this is Christmas
And what has Hal done?
Another year over.
and we're still down a run.

Merry Christmas to all. And ditto on BTR and JM.

The mood is sad
The spirits down
Our team is bad
And I’ve gotta frown

Simply having a terrible Yankeestime
Simply having a terrible Yankeestime

Hal's pants are off
And Cashman's there
He only comes
This time of year

Simply having a terrible Yankeestime
Simply having a terrible Yankeestime

The front office toadies sing their song
King Dong, wee dong, King Dong, wee dong
Ooh Oooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Poo Poo Poo Poo Poo
Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo

Simply having a terrible Yankeestime
We're simply having a terrible Yankeestime
Simply having a terrible Yankeestime

Happy Holidays everyone!

I hope it is way above average for all of you

Merry Christmas to all you huckleberries!

God bless you all, everyone. Except Yankee management.

And a hearty hear, hear on the previous comments.

In response to Doug K's Lennon take, I can only reply, "HAL is over/ If you want it..."

I guess coal in their stockings would suffice. Personally, I’d like to see the entire Yankees upper management get stones instead of coal. Kidney stones.

Merry Christmas to all my brothers in crime!
