Under The Weather

Ugh. I'm currently battling a cold. And the cold right now is kicking my rump. I spent most of yesterday in bed and since our local CBS affiliate is in the middle of a contract dispute with Time Warner Cable, there wasn't any good football to watch. So what did I do? I decided it was a good time to pop in one of the Essential Games Of Yankee Stadium DVDs and relive some old time Yankee magic. I went with game 7 of the 2003 ALCS. It's definitely one of my most favorite Yankee games of all time. I remember watching it at my girlfriend's (now wife) parent's house. I remember how pumped I was watching Boone win it. I don't think I slept that night. It was a classic for sure. It's awesome being able to watch it whenever I want. After I spun that I watched a lot of the bonus features which were equally as exciting. There were some from games I wish were included in the DVD set but what can you do? Jeter's dive is perhaps one of my favorites. I'm glad that MLB Productions is cranking out these old games on DVD. I've got my fingers crossed that someday they come out with an "on demand" service of sorts. That'd be right up my alley.

I'm not sure if I'll have time to put together my 2008 Look Back on Robinson Cano today. The head is swimming from the cold medicine and putting together a string of coherent thoughts is getting difficult. We'll see how I feel after lunch.

Peace, love and Pinstripes,
