A new day, a new start

More Than 100 Killed And Thousands Injured In Anti-Government Protests In Iraq


That is all...

(because nobody really gives a shit)

Luis Severino certainly should be fresh when he tries to lead the New York Yankees to yet another Division Series sweep of the Minnesota Twins.

The 25-year-old right-hander didn't make his regular-season debut until Sept. 17, spending most of the year rehabbing a lat muscle injury sustained while warming up for his first spring training start.

''I never thought about this situation, but I thought it was going to be something similar, getting healthy, and I'll be back to help my team in a situation like this,'' Severino said Sunday. ''I think I came back at the right moment to help my team.''

New York takes a 2-0 lead into Monday night's game at Target Field, tying to sweep a best-of-five series from the Twins for the third straight time after 3-0 victories in 2009 and 2010. The Yankees also beat the Twins in the 2017 wild-card game, part of Minnesota's misery in the postseason. If the Twins get swept, they would tie the North American major pro league record of 16 consecutive postseason defeats, set by the NHL's Chicago Blackhawks from 1975-79. Minnesota's last 12 postseason defeats have all been against New York.

Jake Odorizzi (15-7) starts for the Twins after being skipper over for Game 2 in favor of rookie Randy Dobnak.

''We got punched in the mouth a couple times in New York, but the thing about it is we have pride to punch back,'' Twins reliever Trevor May said.

If you don't like my posts about the Yankees, please let me know. 

It's not like I give a fuck about what you may or may not think of the Yankees, and I sure as shit ain't gonna stop them. 

I just wanna have a good laugh at your expense.

Buster Keaton - He was called this because in his earlier movies he would sometimes smile but in his later work he wouldn’t. Some people would even claim that he couldn't smile or laugh at all but he sure did make a lot of others laugh in his day.

Downtown Belfast on a normal weekday afternoon. What they've accomplished in turning that city around is truly remarkable.

  1. As a long time follower of the Bronx Bombers I can only say "They don't make em like they used too!" You can argue all day that Maris couldn't hit today's pitching or that Whitey could only be used for BP. But man o man they were gods to a little leaguer in South Alabama a long long time ago. keep up the post.
