YANKS DO IT

I really need to update my blog with Halloween shenanigans and other NYC stuff, but I think its really important that I mention that the New York Yankees won their 27th World Series last night!!!!

My roommate and I went to this bar right on our corner, Croxley Ales, and made some friends with some other Yankees. I have always liked the Yankees (if I had to pick a team), but really haven't ever followed baseball until I moved here. Its really hard to get into baseball cause there are a bajillion games, and I only correlate lots of beer drinking with baseball games. But since the Yanks have been in the Playoffs, I've kinda been obsessed! For those of you that know me, I love sports and am actually really excited to be a Yankees fan!! Matsui is my favorite. I have been watching him throughout the playoffs and he is a stud. I was a lil surprised he won MVP and I had no idea this was A-Rod's first WS win!

I want to put this out there and some people might get mad, but I only have 3 followers so I'm confident no one will read this.

I think that I am a sports good luck charm...let me just explain. Not to be conceited or anything, but this can't be coincidence. When I was at WVU, we had our BEST years in football and basketball EVER. When I left, things started to not be as great. I moved to Pittsburgh after graduation, and the year I was there, the Steelers won their 6th Super Bowl and the Penguins won the Stanley Cup. Now I have moved on again to New York City, and the Steelers haven't been having the best year. But, the Yankees just won the World Series!!

I mean, maybe I've just been living in places where sports programs are doing well, but I think it's really me. :o)
