As I took this picture of Sammy at the plate, I said, "Listmaker needs a picture for his Sunday night posting." Handwashings thought that was funny. I don't know. All I do know is that the Yankees have lost 3 out of 4.
As Handwashings pointed out, it is so funny that the Yankees are full of aura and mystique and they refuse to have a mascot, but they love love love their Cotton Eye Joe - who is apparently now Cotton Eye Joey.
From our seats, we were treated to a close up behind the scenes version of "Cotton Eye Joe." We got to see him put on the special Cotton Eye Joe shirt and the special Cotton Eye Joe hat. And then he danced. And then we got to see him take off the special Cotton Eye Joe shirt and the special Cotton Eye Joe hat. Brilliant. Almost as classy as the groundskeepers exhorting 45,000 fans to sing along to "YMCA."

Actually everything was a buck a piece except the pretzels - a steal at 75 cents (which I think is six bits, right?). Go O's!
"Listmaker needs a picture for his Sunday night posting." - who are you, rickey?
Or Lawrence Taylor. The third person references to self are a sign of true lunacy and should be encouraged.
Yankees suck!
Dan--was it you that said he thought Cotton Eye Joe was actually Roger Clemens in disguise!?
