Ha ha Maggie- glad someone understands. I guess the lack of sleep (these endless rounds of playoffs games going till midnight!) and constant bickering at work have gone to my brain- I actually got booed in a meeting last Friday for wearing a Yankees shirt- so I'm a little on edge!
It was great being in the city on Saturday- we went into Modell's Sporting Goods on 42nd St. and the place was packed- we picked up a couple of 'The Curse Lives' shirts. And as far as the better-looking team- what about Jeter, Giambi, Aaron Boone (if you overlook the 2 errors last night?). I can definitely say the Sox are the saddest looking bunch in the majors- and as if things weren't bad enough, they all went and got buzz-cuts! Talk about curse! As far as it being a 'world series', I've always thought that was a ridiculous name for it- it's not like the 'World Cup' in soccer, where you actually have teams representing different countries. I saw a show on (I think) ESPN classic last night about the beginnings of the series in the early 1900's, and someone (can't remember who- too tired) had the bright idea of calling it the 'world' series because where else but in the US would they ever play baseball?
I noticed them playing Liza's version of 'NY, NY' when they lose just this year- I don't know if that's a new thing or not- I know they've played Frankie's version when they win for quite a while. Ain't nothing better than singing along with Frankie after a game at the stadium!
