Dynasty Schmnasty: The new curse!

Only a $200 Million dollar juggernaut like the New York Yankees can have a guy admit to cheating and than win postseason hardware in the form of the American League Comeback Player of the Year. Sure I'm a bitter, I live in the New York suburban area but I choose to root for the small budget Athletics who play in OaklandCalifornia . This is the same franchise that let the Giambino walk after winning the MVP. He walked all right; he walked all the way to the friggin' bank. What's better on his way to walking to the bank he stopped at Barry Bonds' house to get another injection and before making the cross country trip to the Bronx he stopped once more at the barber shop to not only clip his hair and his goatee but he clipped his balls as well.
I know I admit I'm being kind of hard I'm sure he was on the juice while he was wearing green and yellow but only if Mr. Giambi would have come up with a fairy tale like his BALCO buddy Sheffield did and told everyone he was using peanut oil than maybe I would be singing a different tune.
Speaking of Sheffield , next time he admits or doesn't admit to cheating he should incorporate Goldilocks into his story to make it more believable. So here we are five long seasons removed from the last world championship, but hey at least you've conquered the east for nine years running (sorry to all Jays and Rays fans of the world.) So let's recap for a moment shall we what I like to simply call THE NEW CURSE:
2001: Game 7 vs. the Arizona Diamondbacks. The greatest reliever on the planet blows the game and the Bombers' season after a Luis Gonzalez duck fart sails over Jeter's head.
2002: Angels smack the Yanks around so bad it makes the Tyson-Spinks 90 second KO look like a 15 rounder.
2003: Aaron FN Boone- how about Josh FN Beckett! Next time the fish are in town tell the dynasty to show up and keep the bad news bears at home.
2004: Sox in Sox! I think 86 years from now and beyond they will still be talking about this one. I will take a "Big Papi" over a Reggie bar any day, besides if I eat a Reggie bar I might choke!
