In case you didn’t know it, I’m a New York Yankees Fan. Yes, I bleed pinstripes. And after this season… oof, there’s plenty of bleeding going on.
Anyways, today while taking a walk during lunch (getting in some exercise like I pledged I would!), I got a notification on my phone. It was a Facebook friend request. From… David Ortiz.
The only David Ortiz I know is the one who calls himself Big Papi and crushes home runs for the Red Sox when he’s not busy striking out.
Doesn’t he realize I’m a Yankees fan?

Vickie, you need to move to NY so you can become a Yankees fan then. 🙂
YES! Now that’s what I’m talkin’ about, Sandy! 🙂
LOL! And let’s not forget Game 6 of the ’86 Series, when Mookie Wilson hit an easy grounder to Bill Buckner and it just rolled between his legs. Oh, the shame on his face – I loved it! I’m a Yankee fan through and through – but ya gotta love the Mets, too!
Y’know, I actually felt bad for Buckner! Poor guy’s still living with that shame.
LOL! I loved it!
Trivia time: Name a season when the Yankees never won a game at Yankee Stadium.
My fondest memory of the Red Sox is the 1978 AL East “tie-breaker” at Fenway. Go Bucky Dent!
