I woke up today and it was a little dark. Then it got sunny. I looked outside and I saw a lot of clouds.These clouds are the nice, thick, white and grey type of clouds. I was trying to sit on my porch to get a little sun but the clouds would block the sun. The clouds are very nice to look at however. I took some pictures of them.

The Yankees play at 8:00 PM tonight. I don’t like late games which I mentioned already. Usually sports fans would know what outcome of a game might be or have a very good clue. I have no clue what’s going to happen tonight. None. Last night you would think the Yanks would of rocked rookie Tazawa but the opposite happened.

C.C Sabathia and Becket have around the same ERA and both pitchers have dominated the Yankees recently. Might as well flip a coin.

The reason for concern that I have is the Yankees left a lot of men in scoring position last night and they’ll probably have a lot fewer chances tonight against Beckett. When Beckett gets in jams, he gets out of them too so the Yankees have their hands full.

The last thing I want is for Boston to start having confidence. The Yankees need to win tonight to make a statement that they are better than Boston so when they play again, Boston won’t have as much confidence. The Yankees need to prove to themselves as well that they can win there because they’ve only won one game.

I still enjoy watching the game between the Yankees and Red Sox. I’m not the type that gets nervous if the Yankees start to lose. I’ll probably watch it on my couch with a nice big glass of seltzer water with ice.

I looked at weather.com and it says that thunderstorms are going to start at 8:00 PM in Boston. I have to admit, I wouldn’t mind if it rained and the Yankees and Red Sox don’t play because I don’t like the Yankees’ chances.

That’s what my brother told me over email about the Yankee/Red Sox games this weekend.

That’s a pretty good saying. My brother and I go way back when it comes to the Yankees. I don’t know how my father did it but he installed Yankeedom into both of us. If only teachers could get that same power and install doing good school work into their students, the same way my father used on us to be Yankee fans, we would have a bunch of geniuses in this country.

It could of been the power of persuasion. Since I was young, my father constantly preached about the Yankees and always made it seem like the Red Sox were our enemy. Almost like they were another country that hated us.

He only did that for baseball. He never brought up the other sports teams in our area like he did the Yankees. That’s why my brother and I have different favorite sports teams. I like the Yankees, Cowboys, Devils and Nets. My brother likes the Yankees, Broncos, Rangers and Knicks.

I actually feel bad rooting against the Giants because they are every thing New Jersey is about, blue collar, tough fighting, good willed people. I tried to like the Giants but I just couldn’t do it. My father loves the Giants but he never drilled them into my head over and over again.

Here’s my problem in the Yankee/Red Sox rivalry. I have a really good friend that is a Red Sox fan. Stinks to be me, huh? I try down play the rivalry because I don’t want to ruin our friendship but he’s too much into Red Sox fandom. He’s not the biggest Red Sox homer I’ve ever met but his feelings seem to get hurt when the Yankees beat the Red Sox. Make no mistake about it though, the biggest homers are the dorks from Surviving Grady.

My other good friend doesn’t even like sports. Imagine being in the car with him, my red sox buddy and myself? He’s in the same position my mother is in. When RSB(red sox buddy) and I talk, he feels left out so he’ll start making up stuff. He’ll say something like, “Remember when Muhammed Ali hit a home run in the fourth quarter to beat the Bulls? That was amazing!”

I have a gay friend that loves the Yankees. The reason why I’m telling you he is gay is because you’ll be hearing more from him in the future, from this blog believe it or not. I always knew he was gay after he told me but when I heard he likes the Yankees I was like, “You like the Yankees?” I didn’t know gay men liked sports but that’s because I was stereotyping him.

It should be a fun series no matter how it turns out and Yankee/Red Sox games are always fun to watch. Here is my prediction. The Yankees will take two out of three.

1. Joba Chamberlain – He’ll strike out 15 batters and get the win.

2. Alex Rodriguez – Will hit three home runs and drive in nine.

3. Johnny Damon – The Damon Boy is going to steal second, steal third and then steal home all in the same inning.

4. Nick Swisher – He’ll strike out five times.

5. Yankees will win 15-0.

1. Jose Molina – He’ll drive in a run.

2. Melky Cabrera – Will hit a triple

3. Derek Jeter – Will get three base hits.

4. Sergio Mitre – Won’t make it out of the third inning.

5. Yankees will win 11-7.

1. Andy Pettitte – He’ll pitch seven strong innings for the win.

2. Tex And A-Rod – They will hit back to back home runs.

3. Nick Swisher – Will strike out three times because he sucks.

4. Derek Jeter – Steals a base.

5. Yankees will win 4-0.

6. At least one person reading this will cry like a little bitch tonight and complain about something.
