I wanted to be a professional ball player. I had a curve, slider, backdoor fastball. I even knocked my cousin front teeth out with a fast ball.

I could hit too, I could just throw a ball into the air and hit it out of any stadium. I use to practice with a stick and hit stones for hours and hours. No one believes me but I knew I could be a professional. Anyway back to the Yankees. I was so glad the yankees got Damon but for the reason that He would always beat us. The yankees can gain 4 games next year if Haladay goes to another team not in the American League and if he gets to the world series he will beat us. 

SO why are they letting Damon go free agency. When teixeira and Rodriguez became tame hitters in the world series it was Damon and Matsui who did it all. But that is the Yankees I love them but there management is stupid. Joe Torre I love the guy and with the team we had this year we would have won the series in 4 straight. Giradi tried to lose but the Yankees were too good. Giradi has fallen in love with his stats not his players. SO like the grinch yankee management has a heart 3 times to small.

And in 1964 i decided i'd rather be a scientist than a jock.

I had a friend who was from Chicago who saw Babe Ruth play. Those memories of baseball permeate my life. I just had to get my two cents in maybe a few others feel the same if so just say so here.

April will soon be here
