The "Buckner Ball" 23 Years Later: Where Is It Now?
10/26/2009
Hey,
The Yankees have been putrid against Boston this year, especially over a 3-game sweep in Fenway Park. They are returning to the scene of the crime tonight, and this slideshow highlights 5 major reasons why this time around could be very different:

It appears as though Nick Swisher’s Yankees honeymoon is coming to a close, and is being replaced with married life. Smiles are quickly transitioning into expressions of concern. Read about how bad it has gotten for Swish in the Bronx.

Hey Jesus,
The All Star game isn't until July, but if it were to happen now, who would the starters be? A lot could change between now and then, but I'd like to recognize some of the top performers in the early goings. I'd love to hear your opinion on my choices, thanks a lot.

Hey Jesus,
Melky Cabrera hit a walk-off home run last night for the Yankees, but the score and the win paled in comparison to Brett Gardner’s remarkable story. Read how he brought a smile and hope to a sick little girl in NYC.

Hey Jesus,
Ryan Zimmerman’s hit streak halted at 30 games last night. As one streak ends, another is admired. Read about how Joe DiMaggio forever redefined ’56,’ and how his feat may never be broken. It is a record that thankfully cannot be broken through steroid use, and represents all that was once right in a game that has since gone so wrong.

I decided to view MLB with rose colored glasses for a change. Feel free to offer any names I may have inadvertently omitted. I would love your input.

Hey Jesus,
A-Rod has finally returned, and he wrote a script fit for the Oscars in his first at bat. It will take some time for him to get things going, however, and I’d like you to read why we can’t expect an instant encore.

Thanks in advance, and I look forward to hearing your comments and feedback.

Boy, do WE look like blockheads right now for dubbing Manny a Hall of Famer... think he still gets in, or does he sit out with Raffy Palmeiro?

Hey Jesus (sorry about being the only BB poster all the time),
The Yankees have seemingly been sleeping through the early part of 2009, and it reminds of a children’s story from years past. New York has become its own version of Rip Van Winkle. I would love to hear your feedback and comments on this humor piece which also highlights the Yankees many issues.

Thanks everyone…and I hope you enjoy my take on the crisis in the Bronx.

Hey Jesus,
Lou Gehrig has somehow been forgotten amongst the game’s immortals, even though he was possibly even more of a reason for the success of Ruth’s 1927 Yankees. Read about the quiet, forgotten leader of “Murderer’s Row,” Henry Lou Gehrig.

DeleteHey,
The turmoil surrounding the 1977 Yankees earned them the nickname of “The Bronx Zoo.” The current 2009 Yankees have an interesting blend of leaders and pranksters, so I decided to create a LITERAL “zoo.”
Check out what animal each Yankee would be reincarnated as in a next life.
