The Good
On Derek Jeter's 35th Birthday, with Derek Jeter out sick (did he have to bring a note?), the Yankees drummed the hell out of the Mets. Three errors by the Mets helped, but our offense, firing once again on all cylinders, destroyed the Mets spirit. They are a broken group of men now.
The Bad
During last night's My9 Broadcast, the camera focused on Nick Swisher, who was drawing on the bottom of his bat with a sharpie. The broadcast then cut back to the game, and then again to Swisher, who was still drawing. David Cone, at that point, said, "Swisher still working on that knob." And I thought, "Really David? Really?" Poor turn of phrase.
The Ugly
Mets defense has to take this one. Three errors in one inning? Fuhgedaboudit!

on the radio they have a contest, if any Yankee hits for the cycle the contestant gets a Lexus for a year. The only thing keeping Gardner from hitting for the cycle last night was having CC on base in front of him. If I lost a Lexus because CC couldn't run more than 90 feet with out stopping for oxygen I would be pissed
Yeah, the ugly probably should have gone to CC running the bases. He did have a hit though, without breaking his foot, so I had to give him a pass.
CC running the bases was so funny...if he wasnt the ace of the yanks at this current time, and if the yanks didnt have a problem with injuring pitchers during interleauge play, I would of ripped CC a new hole...but great game, i can see the yankee classic title now...June 26th,2009 "Gardners 5 hit game"..(original? yes, very much so compared to their other titles)
David Cone can always be counted on for his "turns of phrase." I can remember one involving Ian Kennedy...
Especially unfortunate turn of phrase coming from Cone. At a Met's game.
Nice to see the Yanks seem to have some other team's nunber, (besides the Rangers.)
hey--they built that stadium to last! I figured it'd fall down when CC stomped on the plate!
Ever see a uniform moving in so many different direction?

CC running the bases was priceless, but all I could think was, "he better not get hurt."
To quote The Babe:
"You can't strain fat."
