More reasons to be cheerful!


And now, in honor of the Yankees' 11th straight playoff failure to reach the World Series, here are 11 more reasons to be cheerful, from Ian Drury and the Blauchheads:

1—We’re just one win away…from the first, all-female New York team taking a trip down the Canyon of Heroes!

 

2—At least we don’t have to watch our boys get swept in the World Series by the New York Mets.

 

3—At least we don’t have to watch our boys get swept in the World Series by the Los Angeles Dodgers.

 

4—At least we don’t have to watch our boys in the World Series. Ever.

 

5—Why worry about baseball when Ghosts is starting again?

 

6—Are you ready for the football?  (I hear the Jets just acquired Carroll Dale.)

 

7—Hey, when have the Knicks and Rangers ever disappointed?

 

8—Four words: NJ/NY Gotham FC. No, wait, that’s actually one word and three sets of initials. Plus a slash. Or, you could say it’s seven words. Anyway.

 

9—I’m sure Juan Soto will want to play for this club now. 


10—Now Cashman can get started on that Alex Vertigo extension. 

 

11—Think of Rob Manfred and MLB looking at the ratings for the big, Dodgers-Guardians World Series. Especially after Ohtani pulls a hamstring.

I tried watching Ghosts--the US version--and couldn't make it through a single episode. The UK original series, on the other hand, is pretty good, especially the first couple of seasons.

Giants vs Eagles Sunday at 1. Whoo. Go Liberty!

I really haven't been impressed by either, JM. The US version could have been much more funny, especially if it were on cable or streaming.

Glad you're old enough to get that reference, Kevin!
