That’s my take on baseball this year. It could happen. Hey, I’m from Chicago and the White Sox had their day already. I serve New York, so the logical pick there is where the money is. The Yankees and George Steinbrenner.
What about the Mets? Won’t happen. Why? Two words. Losers. That’s one word. Sorry. How about free fall? The Mets should move the team to the Philippines. Then change their name to the Manila Folders.
The Cubs are a pitiful baseball team that barely deserves to play in the majors. Look at their division. Every team played so poorly you’d think they were playing for a bonus if they lost the pennant. The only reason the Cubs won is because Lou Piniella yells louder than any other manager. The players are all afraid Lou will bust a vein. Messy.
Only the St. Louis Cardinals have won a Series with a worse record than the Cubs. Hint: both teams are in the same division.
A Cubs and Yankees World Series would be heaven for me. I can’t lose. Only the dying members of Red Sox Nation would hold a grudge against me for picking the Yanks. Big whoop. They’ll have to wait another century for Boston to win again anyway. Some people love being losers.
Remember, Boston is in Massachusetts, and Massachusetts is the bluest state in the country. Everyone knows it. And what did the voters in Massachusetts do? They elected a Republican as governor. Idiots.
I got a call from George Steinbrenner this morning. He asked if I would be available to throw out the first ball in a Cubs and Yankees World Series.
I said yes. One of Tim Russert’s.
