A person I was close to had one inviolable rule: never root for the Yankees. In the heat of the race, now the rule is broken.
The Grime of the Ancient Mariner He loved his team where e’er he lived When Seattle stole the show He thought himself a fan supreme The Yank a constant foe There was a time, he sadly knows, His eye was on the sky A place with bonny birds in rows Brave Oriole on high But now he sinks deep in a bog Of stupor, shame and fear His supple mind encased in fog For, now, the Yanks he’ll cheer Bobbles, wobbles everywhere Get worse the more you think Bobble, wobbles everywhere How low a man can sink!

Seattle slew the Oriole blue and Yanked it from the sky. How does that Yank your Doodle? ;-)

I once pitched a no-hitter to some bad playground batters, but never got into the tobacco chewing slow game like my father did. Hence my snide remarks above� Forgive me.

The Wholly Book of Genesis by Jay Dubya
