when the Disney Angels have more than one ring in their history. a good series against an injury riddled team is hardly reason for you to try to make yourself feel better.

I am usually an optimist about the Yankees, refusing to participate in all the “it’s over” talk until it’s REALLY over, but this team, with the play they have shown in the past two weeks, is not making the playoffs.
My feeling sitting there the whole day, especially after we left runners on third with one out twice, was they are going to find a way to lose. I hate feeling this way about this team but I have no confidence in them. Its a strange feeling for a Yankee fan.
Reggie Jackson sat down next to me in the 3rd inning. That made this worth the trip to the bi A, But even Mr. October is not showing much enthusiasm for the team is “specially advising”. We may be out of contention before we ever play another game at Yankee Stadium.

is the fact that we’re chasing Boston. We’ve still got their number. If it comes down to that series at Fenway at the end of the year, I think they Yankees can take them. The problem is, we’ve only got 6 games against Boston. Even if we take all 6, we’re not playing well enough against the rest of the league to make that series in Septemer count.
