OMG! My kids have grown.

“To be nobody but yourself in a world that’s doing its best to make you somebody else, is to fight the hardest battle you are ever going to have to fight.”

Never Stop Fighting – Tito Ortiz

Yanks took the 1st game of a best of 5 series against the wild-card Detroit Tigers. Wang did his thing! Jeter went 5 for 5 including a solo homer (then people ask why he is the Captain of the team). Giambi blasted a two run-homer and even stole a base (slow as a turtle but stole a base!) to help the Yanks win by a score of 8-4! Surprisingly, both Cano and Matsui went 0 for 4! Damon, Abreu and Posada went 2 for 5, 2 for 5 and 2 for 4, respectively. Also surprisingly, although he did just come back from surgery, Shef went 1 for 4 and last but not least, the 20 million dollar bum went 1 for 4 and needless to say that this was not at all surprising! I would be a much happier Yankee fan if Rodriguez was GONE!

Let’s go YANKEES!

I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno’t mtaetr in waht oerdr the ltteres in a wrod are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is taht the frsit and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae.

Isn’t that weird? 🙂

“I am not now, what i was yesterday. I am not now, what I shall be tomorrow. So, you do yourself an injustice to judge me by yesterday, when I have moved on!”

It’s been a while! I really have to start blogging here again. I haven’t done so in soooo long. Tomorrow I plan on beginning a new workout regimen to get back in shape so I’ll update here to keep a journal. 🙂

Today is the home opener for the Yanks! In about an hour the Yanks will be underway to starting a home stretch of 3 games against the Kansas City Royals.

Enjoy!

Well aren’t the Yankees off to an incredible start? 15-2 in the opening game of the season! Tied the record for the most runs scored in an away opening game by the Yankees! I was hoping they’d break the record. Anyway, if this is what we are headed for throughout this season, won’t that be a dream come true! Let’s go Yankees!!!

Wow! We had a record breaking snow storm! The National Weather Service said 26.9 inches of snow had fallen in Central Park, the most for a single storm since record-keeping started in 1869. The old record was 26.4 inches in December 1947. To the right you will find a few pics that I took while shoveling.

I picked this up from DianaLeroi.com.
