I love Mom’s Mabley and Rudy Ray Moore.

5-11 vs Houston, may it please continue
Reggie Jackson approves of the first 2 games
He looks 100 years old.
You wish you could dance like that.
Although he spent time at Studio 54 and I’m going to assume you didn’t.
Cole had trouble describing what’s special about the Astros.
He’s on the outside looking in now, but did he experience it as an Astro, or just observe it then?
Incoming Astros players try to describe the atmosphere.
Great to see it acknowledged.
Hearing Cole talk about what makes the Astros special may also be pointing out what the Yankees don’t have.
I have a friend who is related to someone in the Yankee’s organization. The quote my friend told me is something like “the Yankees have no cohesion when they aren’t winning.”
How many teams really do have it?
Lack of cohesion is a great description of the alternative.
Makes total sense. The fans turn on them when they are not doing well. The front office turns on them when they’re not doing well. The press turns on them when they’re not doing well. That’s a classic outcome of a long-standing hostile environment. I hope Cole enjoys taking a peek at his bank account balance every once in a while, though.
Man shall not live by “bread” alone.
Fuck that brooding belly-aching bastard. That’s the team he grew up rooting for. That is the path he decided on. He chose to become a miserable maudlin mope.
I say, let 'em crash.
Fucking Yankees do not know how to say “They beat us twice but just barely. We will get them in NY.” Oh, no. They have to whine and to make excuses: the open roof, the wind, exit velocity, Astros are lucky. I suppose they earned the two Framber gave them? They are damn lucky they were not shut out.
I hate the Yankees and have my entire baseball fan life. That goes back to the early 1950s and will continue throughout eternity.
This. But mid-50s for me.
I’ve hated them my whole life and I’m in my mid 50s so I think that counts.
I hate the Yankees so much that I’ve rooted for Dodgers to beat them. BTW, I fucking hate the Dodgers with all my heart.
Fake news!
