#10: Damned if you Do, Damned if you Don’t
When the Yanks are winning the critics state we bought a winning team. When we have a losing streak we are no longer the AL favorite. Read HERE. Comments circulate on the age of our players to the injuries and pitching. This simply irritates the hell out of me! The bottom line is we are the Mighty Yankees! Criticism is expected and ignored. Remember this… “It's hard to beat a person who never gives up.” ~Babe Ruth. This team is not giving up! So don’t count us out yet!
#9: Bleeding Yankee Babe…Hmmm?
I’m calling on all the Bleeding Yankee Blue Lady fan’s out there! I think it’s time we bring something to the attention of our beloved Casey. Not sure if you ladies noticed the little corner with the Bleeding Yankee Babe pictures. Well I have and it appears the pictures are of hot ladies only! Don’t get me wrong, these girls are beautiful but I believe a babe can refer to both sexes. With this said I think a couple male babes should be featured. Here is a couple selections I feel would meet that criteria…Of course Derek Jeter, Matthew McConaughey, Mark Wahlberg, Ryan Gosling, Channing Tatum…just to name a few.
#8: Futbol for Jeter
#7: Bucks on the Ponds
Hey Yankee Fans…Do you know your baseball? MLB introduces a new trivia game called Bucks on the Ponds. This game gives you the chance to earn some dough while you are watching the game. They randomly select fans to participate. Read HERE. Be sure to know your Yankee trivia because you never know when they will be back in the Bronx.
#6: Look Out
Let’s just say if Eric Chavez is on the field you better be on the lookout. During last Tuesday’s game against the Tigers the Yankees were throwing the ball around the infield and things got a little crazy. Not realizing the umpire had tossed Cody Eppley a ball Chavez threw his ball and it popped the pitcher in the head. Read HERE. Thankfully he is OK. Geez be careful Chavez we have suffered enough injury in our pitching rotation.
Mariano Rivera took to the field at Yankee Stadium to take part in the coin toss prior to the soccer match between Real Madrid and AC Milan. Read HERE. Glad to see Rivera being active. My hope is standing on the field at Yankee Stadium will make him anxious to return to the pinstripes…We miss you Mo!!

#4: Another record for Jeet
Yes once again we are discussing another record to be broken by Derek Jeter! Just Stop and Think what this man has accomplished and what he will accomplish. Jeter tied Hank Aaron for 17 consecutive seasons with 150 hits on August 11th. Read HERE. Truly amazing when you look at the whole picture. Jeter is one of a kind. Outstanding career as well as an outstanding person and role model…Keep it Going Jeet!
#3: Remembering Thurman
Aug 2nd …33 years ago the New York Yankees lost a member of the family. Thurman Munson was not only a catcher but the Captain of the team. He was loved by his fans and teammates...read HERE. A tragic loss that will never be forgotten. His legacy still continues today.
#2: Joltin’ Joe
A picture is worth a thousand words and this writer believed that. While visiting the Diamond Club a private dining room at the New Marlins Park a photo was discovered. The photo was Joe DiMaggio showing a 3 year old boy how to bat. Read HERE. This little boy was Larry Valencourt. Finding the photo priceless the writer tracked down Larry who is now 67 and a US Army safety engineer. Larry was surprised to get the call about the photo taken 64 years ago.
#1: Grants For Lou Gehrig’s
ALS Association announces grants worth 4 million dollars to be rewarded to 31 laboratories. These grants will help with research in hopes to find treatment and a cure for Lou Gehrig's disease. Read HERE. The man who considered himself the luckiest man on the face of the earth would be proud of the efforts to cure this disease.
