 ITS A HARD-KNOCK LIFE
THAT'S WHY I USE A DOORBELL
MAY I HAVE A TREAT ?

I raise my leg to
Pee on Brian Cashman's shoe.
A true Yankee dog.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Won't make the effort
To piss on Ca$hole burning
Wasted energy

Boone, Hal and Brian
Sit in the bleacher section
Pretend to be poor

AboveAverage said...

Hal, Pal and Boonie
One goes, one wipes, ones flushes
Dunno who does what

BernBabyBern said...

Yankees' baserunning
skills are in midseason form;
We're in big trouble

Hinkey Haines said...

One of these two teams
Doesn’t seem to give a shit
It’s not the White Sox.

Another clutch late inning AB. by Judge

Why is Weaver still in?

ranger_lp said...

Gee it got interesting…

Hinkey Haines said...

Well that was unexpected.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Good thing bonehead pinch ran for Rice

ranger_lp said...

Yankees Win!!!

Hinkey Haines said...

Just like they drew it up.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Despite Bonehead's best efforts, the Yankees win.

ranger_lp said...

Never in doubt…

Hinkey Haines said...

Hope they don’t celebrate too much tonight. The division is still in reach.

BTR999 said...

Caballero Rusiticana!

I don’t know what the fuck I’m talking about, but I so know there will be October baseball in NYC!

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Toronto has a secret weapon though. Aaron Boone is not their manager.

Hinkey Haines said...

You’re optimistically assuming they won’t proceed to lose their last 5 games & end up the road team in the wild card round.

AboveAverage said...

So true

13bit said...

October baseball is not so rare as it once was. Am I harsh on them? Yes, but after this many years of failure and mediocrity, it'll take a lot to earn my trust back, let alone my dollars.

You guys are a constant comfort to me, in my limited ability to join the merriment (nothing serious; will explain later this week). First off, I just want to say that my 66 win prediction was CLOSE...at least around mid-August. Who knew they would pick it up?...

HoraceClarke66 said...

...Which only makes it all the more frustrating. With true juju sadism, Hal & Pal have yet again assembled a team that will finish one key player—infielder? catcher? I predict relief pitcher—short of taking it all. But hey—I have to admit, I prefer being tortured to relaxing without hope. Hmm, what does that say about me?...

HoraceClarke66 said...

...Meanwhile, I just want to inquire: Didn't Faith keep her hope and charity in a little tin box? A little tin box that a little tin key unlocks? Asking for a friend.

You’d have to ask JM, Hoss.
