When you live in Florida......
Two TV's, one in the house, one outside, both with the game on.
One has delay compared to the other so I can immediately watch replays my way. :)
Life is good except it seems we are back to leaving men on base by numbers again. What a blown chance to score.

Thanks.
It is a special edition Cooperstown throwback version I picked up while at the game this year.
Has a very unique weave that makes it very nice.

I don't think I could wear it for fear of getting a stain on it.

You wouldn't want to be near me then.
In the past few weeks, have worn it to restaurants you would think I would need a bed sheet to cover me.
Yesterday, was over my son's house, with his miniature pinschers jumping all over me with their nails. That part did freak me out a bit.
I figure I will enjoy it or when I die, the guy that comes over and takes my place won't be as nice with it.:D

Considering how dirty Donnie Baseball got his jerseys, I wouldn't sweat it.


Of course, he did not pay for them.

Re: Yankees vs Angels ALCS 2009
 
I have always been a big Mattingly fan.
Before Jeter, he was the Yankees.
Represented them well.
Classy guy.
Spent a weekend with him and his family as guests at the hotel I was at.
We talked quite a bit by the pool. He tossed the ball with his kids and my son.
Bought each other drinks.
Very humble and genuinely nice guy.
When I looked at the available jerseys, I was focused solely on one possibility and that was 23.
Next one will be Jeter's.

Donnie is in consideration for the Astros or Indians managerial jobs this off season.

Amazing how many of us Yankee fans immediately mention Mattingly as someone who you think of a class act.
Such a shame he left and the next year, the Yankees go to the World Series.
We talked about that too.

If he stayed though, then Tino would not have been a Yankee and would they have gone to the playoffs without Tino?

I was in the ballpark opening day 97 to watch him raise the Championship flag. Shame, yes, but not sure given his back that we could have won it with him still on the team.

Just bad timing/luck for a great ballplayer not to have won at least one championship.

He admittedly said his body was just not in it as his mind was.

His body was worn down for a while. I wondered if his work ethic hurt him in the long run with all the extra hitting sessions he would do during the season and then during the off-season in his house.

Though I could never see him doing it, it would have been interesting to see him concentrate on keeping physically fit and active in a hitting sense and DH'ing.

All those throws to first and in the end, it was not even close at second.

I think most of Donnie's problem was his bad back - though, considering the problems he had later on with his wife, it may have partly been the pain in his butt also.

I like Jorge but man, the guy is a flashing neon sign "steal from me, everyone does".

....and sure, grandson may need one with his arm.

You are so much ahead of me on the game.
My ATT Uverse is way behind any of my friends when we are watching the same game.
Amazing how that works.

I don't think I would want to date her. I would like to do other things with her though. :dr

Cano is sucking.
Need to wake up his bat.
Will view it as a sacrifice to get the runner to third.
