Yesterday, December 17, 2017... a date that will live in 'famy... the Yankiverse was suddenly and brutally comforted by the forces of hope.
In the span of mere minutes, without provocation or warning, the Yankees signed CC Sabathia, John Sterling - "The Master" - and Suzyn Waldman to one-year contracts.
We are still recovering from this unplanned bolt of good tidings.
With confidence in our lineup, with the unbounding determination of our fan base, we shall gain the inevitable triumph in 2017... so help us Hal.
I hereby ask that the Yankiverse declare Sunday, December 17th, 2017 "Harboring Pearls Day," in our march toward the next championship of the world.

How great is it to have John and Suzyn under our tree for X~Mas! If you listened to Mike Francesa’s penultimate show you discovered that SuzyQ and Mike’s On frequently text each other during games. Maybe Mike will get bored and join in a 3 way. I mean that in a clean, wholesome family spiritual way.
Well, that's good news. Glad to have CC back. Thrilled to hear about John & Suzyn.
Every year they bring those two back is like an extra serving of matzoh kugel at the seder --delicious. They are occasionally maddening, especially John's blind eye to detail, and the relentless ads and endorsements really cut into their back-and-forth chatter. Still, they are both so unconventional, and each of them stubbornly watches the game from their own weird and particular perspective. Once you know the game situation, you can almost plug in their dialog modules before they start talking. And I have grown to like that. You may not be able to predict baseball, but you can make a pretty good guess about what John Sterling is going to say next. Knowing that their career probably cannot the match the life expectancy of the new Volvo that John will be driving this spring, I live in dread of the hyper-competent voice cyborg the Yankees will undoubtedly bring in once they banish John & Suzyn to the Jewish home in Riverdale. Mazel tov!
Very well said, Rev.!
And by the by, here are the hoops the Reds jumped through to entice the Japanese Clint Hartung to Cincinnati, only to not even get a hearing:

I think this is an added, unexpected blessing of the season, not getting stuck with this egomaniac.
God bless us, everyone!
The Japanese Babe is a bullet well dodged. He acts like he's already come here and put up Ruthian numbers for 10 years. This is a great case for rooting against him at every turn. Just for fun.
Why only one year for John and Suzyn? I understand one year for CC, all things considered. But the Master and the Queen? One year?
I'm glad to have them back for 2018, but I already dread 2019. We'll be getting an Aaron Boone of broadcasting, and the original one was terrible at it.
Can we add "A-Rod" and "baby bombers" to the list? How about "deep farm system?" Do we really need that phrase?
The Master’s return was a condition CC added to his contract.
Worse yet, John M, it just MIGHT be Joey Binders, if he doesn't find a good home in 2018...
"Japanese Clint Hartung" - - veeeeeery clever, Hoss-Man!! Boo-yah!! LB (No J)
I'm fine with Sterling returning. If need to know the score of the game, you can always check on your cell phone.
It is high it is far it is..... GONE!
Everyone up ! All stand for Stanton!
Oh dear sweet sugar-coated deep-fried baby Jesus on a stick!
Looks like John and Suzyn are now the Walter Alstons of broadcasting.
