IF the human race weren't going to be extinct in about a hundred years. What are you all smoking? This is the worst assemblage of washouts and incompetents and geriatrics to disgrace a Yankees uniform since 1967.<br /><br />Forget it. Move on. Grow up.

BUT, we are fans, so that means we hope against hope.<br /><br />Let's not write the team off until we at least get through May. <br /><br />The two best Yankee teams of my lifetime looked like chumps on opening day. 1961 Yanks lost to the Twins 6-0; 1998 Yanks lost to Angels 4-1. Of course, we are at best a wild card team, but we can at least still hope for that.ceejanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-30441902065500390192015-04-07T07:58:18.459-04:002015-04-07T07:58:18.459-04:00Sorry, Duque.

And then he went on to tell us that in his first year, Jeter did the same thing. "Now I'm not saying that Didi Gregorius is going to be another Derek Jeter..."<br /><br />No, Master. No one is saying that.<br /><br />Welcome home, Duque. You missed the mens' curling championships this past weekend. Best game was Canada-Norway on Saturday. Great play, some amazing shots.<br /><br />JMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09876016557456927299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-53148930845586530062015-04-07T06:41:01.114-04:002015-04-07T06:41:01.114-04:00Is it true that Didi G tried to steal third with t...Is it true that Didi G tried to steal third with two outs in the eighth inning of a five-run game, and later said, "it won't happen again?" Did that really happen? Tell me it didn't happen.el duquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12263977201552650862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-51729811241156039312015-04-07T01:13:36.828-04:002015-04-07T01:13:36.828-04:00I phone-monitored the game while drinking in a pub...I phone-monitored the game while drinking in a pub directly across from the London Playboy Club, watching Crystal Palace play Manchester City. Didn't see Heff or even Rob Schneider. Not one bunny. It is the bleakest set of opening day omens since the unveiling of Danny Tartabull in RF. I think Hal is onto something with this new respect for draft picks. The Yankees are going to be drafting really high one of these days. Home tonite.
