-Last night's Yanks-Red Sox game was perhaps the greatest baseball game I've ever seen. I'm not sure if it's better than Game 7 last year in the ALCS. The circumstances were different, of course, but I think last night's game was just a little more intense, if only because Joe Torre had Jon Lieber warming up...in the on deck circle.

-I'm convinced my "Boston Sucks" shirt with my dirty Yankee cap are lucky together. In addition to Game 7 of last year's ALCS, I went 4-4 with 3 RBI in yesterday's softball game, and of course, the Yankees won another instant classic.

-Pedro is a punk. I don't think anyone can dispute that anymore.

-Yes, I know that Maria Sharapova is only seventeen, and I do feel a bit creepy, but you know what, I'm counting down the days...

-Meanwhile, I'll say it again, Lindsay Lohan? No.

-Speaking of Sharapova, I think we have to thank Ronnie for bringing an end to the Cold War, if only because it allowed Eastern Bloc tennis hotties to come and play in the west. Back then, the Eastern Bloc gave us Martina Navratilova, now we have Anna Kournikova, Sharapova, and even that Hantuchova chick. Meanwhile, we counter with the Williams sisters, who, to be fair, can whip anyone on the court, but then again, look like they can also whip anyone in the ring as well.
