The Yankees should have 10 world championships in the last 10 years. What a loser of an organization. And you can bet they won't win one for another 10 years....hopefully never!

February 4th, 2010 at 1:16 am Just caught up on all the friendly banter that took place today and this evening…….Most entetaining to say the least……Ran into Greg Dobbs who I haven’t seen since last winter……Asked him about the World Series and his take on the Yanks…….We all believed we could beat them, but in our hearts we knew it was going to be an uphill battle…….On Jeter, there’s a mystical air about him…..Alex, is not human, Matsui,the reports were to pitch to him very carefully….Damon’s ab and dash to 3rd, unreal at bat, just knew he was going to get on & on the steal, there should have never been a throw….On Mariano Rivera, everytime Joe went to the mound late in the game, oh xxit, he never gives in…….He’s the best, even their guys in the pen just shake their heads in awe……. ------------------------------------------------------------ Sounds like a great conversation you had with Dobbs, Pat. NYY just had too many weapons for a team to deal with. Just saw a clip on MLB of a slide around the catcher that your friend Rich Amaral made in 1885. Heck of a slide and quick thinking on his part. Just lucky that he didn't get his hand mangled. Pat M.
