Seed? No, not a mustard seed. I’m not even sure how seed became a thing in baseball. But I will explore this now. So many changes in baseball. No more wild card. 12 teams make the playoffs, which means 6 from each league. If you’re not first your last, therefore….the number 1 seed = the […]
Would it even be New York if it wasn’t for the controversy. Anything that leads to people hating us gives me a thrill unlike any other. 2. They can have mustaches, what more do you want? 3. Honor the pinstripes what’s interesting to me is no one ever complains about firefighters not being able to […]
As a New York fan, now is not a fun time to watch baseball. Last night, I started watching the Yanks play the Rays, and after realizing they weren’t really trying to win, I switched the game to see the Marlins. I was less disappointed. Just mere months ago, Cashman begged fans to not give […]
There’s not enough praise I can offer this book. If Eddie Jaku was still alive, I’d give him a standing ovation. I hope and pray that I can do this book justice. It’s a simple yet profound book. Devastatingly beautiful. I’m so grateful Mr. Eddie decided to write about his life, so I could appreciate […]
As far as I’m concerned, the only worthwhile thing Aaron Hicks did at all this season is getting on base during the Yankees vs Rays game in Tampa this evening. After that, it was all downhill. He is a danger to the team and the other players. I’m not entirely sure if he even likes […]
A Cinderella story if there ever was one. They beat the odds. Literally. Prince Charming AKA Mathew Tkachuk came through. Hovering around the Bruins goalie like a shark waiting to pounce on a minnow, he got the puck & slick as slime snucked it passed the Bruins and in to the net. So far in […]
The series against the Rangers last night 4/27/23 was off to a rocky start, where it seemed like the former Yankee pitcher, Andrew Heaney was giving us a run for our money. As the ball comes at you swiftly from the hands of a left-hander we have to give the Yanks a little bit of […]
11/7/22 9:01pm why do we remember the bad days more than the good ones? im not quite sure. my therapist told me today that, we as people have more good days than bad but for some reason we are more likely to remember the horrible misfortunes of our everyday life. so, today, (& every day […]
There’s no replacing Garrit Cole as he’s taking some time for his elbow as it’s not bouncing back quite as well as it used to. Maybe it’s because he’s a powerhouse on the mound, being Mr. Reliable or because he does a tremendous amount of wagging of his finger. Either way, the Yankees weren’t able […]
Bryce Harper is out for blood & that six figure bonus check. The now 31 year old made his wishes come true the other night with hitting a homerun on his birthday during a playoff game. “That’s always been a dream of mine, to play on my birthday”, he said. As he touched home plate […]
this has been coming up frequently over the last couple of days. this thing is called undeserved kindness. In college, I heard a Psychology professor say that it’s not in our human nature to be kind because we had to fend for ourselves back in the cave and if we were too nice we wouldn’t […]
why do i feel the need to start over sometimes? monday seems like a great day for change. it’s uncomfortable at first, but then again so is being in the same place you were last year. there are only a couple of months left of this year. (3) and i really want to finish strong. […]
Hallelujah! The Yanks finally won a series against the Astros. “I know it’s only been 3 days, but I have never seen this kid without a smile on his face,” an announcer said on Dominguez, what’s not to smile about when your MLB debut is record-breaking? I’d say this kid is going places, but it’s […]
The other day I finished reading Anna Quindlen’s book, Write for your life. It was not a page-turner in the slightest. Respectfully. It’s one of those books that really make you think. I enjoyed Anna’s thoughts, and I was utterly amazed that she could write a whole book on writing. To be honest, I skimmed […]
