Ten In a Row!!


Going into yesterday's playoff games, three teams were tied with the longest active playoff losing streak of 9 games: Cubs, Rangers, and Twins.
Rangers win!! And thanks to the Yankees....
Congrats, Cubbies, for the time being you do not hold the longest active playoff streak. That honor is held solely by another team with 10 playoff losses in a row. Enjoy, Cubbies fans, while you can.
Too choked up to write too much about this, but how proud am I of the the New York Yankees!! The resiliency!! Down, 2-0 early to "The Little Engine that Could," you did not give up!! Kudos!!
Nick Swisher was obviously distracted for the first 30 minutes of the game as the baseball gods cruelly scheduled the start of the game opposite Joanna Garcia's sit-com on ABC. But once Joanna's sitcom was over, Nick was able to go back to being the cheerleader that the Yankees pay him millions to be!!
One final note, I told "Coach" that I would give him fifty cents for every black and Hispanic person that he or I could spot in the stands at Target Field. I saw a black beer vendor (sorry, doesn't count). I may give him a quarter anyway.
Enjoy the games!! Go, Yankees!!
