SUCK IT, Yankees!

Oh the recrimations, the lamentations, the bitter gnashing of teeth around the office today as angry Yankees fans piss and moan, point fingers, assign blame and debate the future of Joe Torre.

BWAHAHAHA.jpg

Brings a little extra spring to my step. I can only hope that "the Boss" is tasting the salt of his own tears this morning.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yips! from Robbo: That "thunk" which you may hear today would be Torre's head tumbling into the basket, methinks.

Curiously, we're now at a point where I don't give much of a hoot one way or the other about either NL team, while I like both the Sawx and the Tribe. Gonna be a tough ALS, but I'll be able to cheer whole-heartedly for whichever one gets into the Series.

Torre's contract is up. He simply won't be rehired. Yeah, it's a pity the season ended so soon, but still 12 straight years in the playoffs is a pretty good stretch. What's the Red Sox streak, 2 years?

I think the twelve the Boss is more interested is the twelve losses out of thirteen games in the post season since A-Rod's Nancy slap of the ball in the 2004 series.

1-12.

That's got to hurt all the way to Toledo!

Going in to last night, of course---now they're 1-13.

And the funny thing is that the press is going to run A-Rod and Torre out of town, in favor of Jeter, who is posting numbers impressive for an AARP softball league....

And during their great stretch run they were 43-15, winning 11 straight post season series. It's hard to maintain that kind of domination against other good teams.
