YESNetwork.com - The Pinstriped Bible

More gold from Goldman. My favorite passage:

  The year of illusory improvement materialized because the team enjoyed six months of clutch hitting, singles falling in at the right time, or shortstops spontaneously exploding into a million gooey pieces just as they were about to catch the game-ending line drive. Everyone runs onto the field and enjoys a squishy high five, not realizing that shortstops don’t detonate every day, that it’s not something that the team earned so much as it just happened, that you can’t plan for it and can’t depend on it.

Hey, check it out -- nobody's commented yet! You could be the first to comment on this AWESOME post! Hurry up and think of something to say! And not "First!", or anything like that, because that would be lame, and you'd be lame for doing it. Especially if someone beats you to it.

Well, since you spent so much time reading this, you've probably missed your shot to be first, but go ahead and post anyway. Someone might read it. Not ME, but someone.
