Back in May -- I had died hard Yankee fans looking to off load the rest of their season tickets. But for the 12th year in a row the Bronx Bombers are headed for the post season play. They finished today in 2nd place in the AL East and the wild card team. They will start play this week in Cleveland against a hot Indians team. But the boys will be ready to grip it and rip it!! Pitching will either bury us or open the door for this to be atruly great season.
On a similar note....the NY Mets completed the season losing their first place position to the Philadelphia Phillies. The Mets know will be known as the worst collapse in MLB history -- they were 8 games ahead when September started -- they could have coasted into the playoffs. Instead they lost 10 out of 11 at home to the two worst teams in the NL and they allowed the Phillies to taste the post season! Unbelieveable! There is a suicide watch across Queens, NY tonight!
I love this game!
