Those were all glorious years for the Yankees, the thought of which substitutes for sex with women among most of the frequenters of this blog.

1) They all come after 1926.

2) The New York Giants sucked?

3) OK I'll take a real stab at it... I'm going to guess that all of these teams won 50 games before July.

My buttocks??

Don't know about anyone else on this blog but sex mit die Frauen is a common occurrence 'round these parts. in comparison, a WS ring is rather rare, even for the Yanks. I hereby resolve to give up a booty call or two for another ring. it's the least I can do.

Who's with me?

They won the world series all those year? Well, 2018 TBD?

Hey Anon, If I'm passing on some sexual activity, it better be for a ring!

Exchanging sex for rings? No. This is NOT Kansas City. This is New York. We will never be that desperate.

Oddly enough, you're ALL right.

Doug K., you were closest. All were years in which the Yankees had won at least 50 of their first 72. Of course, PREVIOUSLY, they have also been ring years...

WinWarblist,

I'm in NJ... :-)

TheWinWarblist said...

Oh. Oh KD ... I'm so so sorry, I didn't know ... I didn't know :-(

Life just isn't fair. I learned that long, long ago.

OTOH, I do claim to be a "New Yorker" since I was born and grew up in a little town near Buffalo. when meeting strangers and telling them I'm from New York, they assume I'm a rather bumpkin-like citizen of The City. Works well picking up German chicks.
