While we patiently await Yankee Baseball to return to us, there is some baseball actually being played right now. The Caribbean Series and the Australian Baseball League Championship Series are both currently going on. That's right, you can see singles, doubles, dingers, strikeouts, and everything that make baseball awesome. I'd really like if the Yankees did that whole dingers thing this year, even though it's the wrong way to play baseball.
Comments of the Day
I'm still really happy for Phil Hughes. I hope he continues to shine on the Twins.
Still don't miss those meatballs though.
This might give "rain delay" a whole new, horrific meaning.
If you have the chance, read this story about Rob Refsnyder. It is excellent and touching and it might make you root for him even more.
Bernie Williams was definitely important.
Harlan pretty much hits the nail right on the head here.
GIF of the Day
Bernie had one sexy bat flip.
Honorable Mod Mention
Two HMMs to give out today.The first goes to Harlan, because he's right. There really is no middle ground with a lot of Yankee fans out there.
- A classic question: favorite Baseball movie?
- This place is opening up eventually. So, what is your favorite breakfast sammich?
I figured this would be a great way to end Sports Theme week. While it's not a sports theme so much, it's still an awesome song from one of the best baseball movies there is. As always, please link us your Song of the Day.
Feel free to use this as your open thread for the day. Starting tomorrow, we're definitely back to love week with Valentine's Day coming up.
Heroes get remembered but legends never die, follow your heart kid, and you'll never go wrong.
