Goddammit

The Yankees lost to the Tigers 4-3 today and the series is now tied 1-1. I blame it on the fact that I did not wear a Yankees Shirt to work because I incorrectly assumed that the game was at 8:00 after being rained out last night. You can also chalk up the tough loss to shoddy defense from Matsui, the Tigers bullpen, and because A-Rod forgets how to hit the ball in October. But it's mostly because I forgot to wear a Yankees shirt.

Solution: I put on a Yankee shirt as soon as I got home. To ensure I do not make the same mistake I made today, I will not take it off until the playoffs are over. Not even when I take a shower. I will just go places all wet. Hopefully, it will rain a lot, so when people ask me "hey, why are you all wet?" I could just blame it on the rain. Like Milli Vanilli.

Also, it would be nice if Randy Johnson and Jaret Wright and/or Corey Lidle didn't fuck up in Detroit. Or if A-Rod remembered how to be a good player. For his sake, he better start hitting this weekend. Or else we will throw the motherfucker to Anaheim. 8 million Yankee fans across the Tri-State will pick Alex Rodriguez up and throw him across the fucking country. He needs to produce this weekend, the collective safety of the world depends on it.

Randy Johnson (who has a herniated disc and just got a epidural) vs. Kenny Rogers (with a career postseason ERA of 8.85) tomorrow. The over/under for total runs scored is 74.5.
