Poor Yankees

They lost last night to Boston. At home. In front of the whole world. Boston celebrated their win in NYC on a NYC field.

Boston now moves to the World Series. Their competition (the Cardinals or the Astros) will be unveiled tonight at the winner of tonight's game.

Boston hasn't won a world series since 1918.

Rumor has it that the curse will stop them. They choke at every turn.

I do have to say they played a much better game than the Yanks and deserved their win.

Life at Casa del Jacquimarie is a bit sullen. HB has two teams that he adores. Or shall I say, is obsessed with. The Yankees and the Gators. They fill his sports world. He belongs to websites, he writes letters to sports editors.

Both are miserable. But HB has hope. Hope that next year will be different. That the Gators will get the coach back that they so need. The Yanks will get their pitchers in order after losing Clemens and others to the Astros (he's pitching tonight) last year.

I guess all we have is hope.

As Jesse Jackson would say...

"Keep hope alive!"
