Weekly Random Thoughts On The Yankees
The Yankees only went 4-3 this week, bringing their overall record to 73-48, yet they are now four-and-a-half games ahead of Boston in the AL East.In winning the first three games of their five-game series, the Yankees have outscored the Red Sox 39-20, racking up forty-four hits and twenty-five walks.
The series has allowed Red Sox fans to examine two major problems with the Boston front office: they were too cheap to sign one of their best and most likeable players (Johnny Damon has gone 9-18 (.500) with 8 RBI, three doubles, one triple, and two homers) and they didn't do anything before the trade deadline (Bobby Abreu has gone 7-13 (.538) with five walks (for an OBP of .667) and three doubles).
Curious

If It Was Good Enough For Us, It's Good Enough For Them
The Lovely Mrs. Davis recently asked her readers to write about the television programs, music, movies and books from their youth that they were planning on sharing with their children. She received over forty replies! I encourage you to check them out. It's a fun trip down Memory Lane.Me? I've been Tivoing Pee-Wee's Playhouse for my daughter. She loves it (but I've got to be fast with the remote as the commercials they show are extremely inappropriate).
