  1. Who'd believe you'd come along
  2. But then I know it's growing strong

  4. ="Yancy Street Gang"]Dog fart movies? Do they mean that literally, or is this a euphemism that I'm not aware of? You can always check Urban Dictionary.
  5. They don't make spammers like they used to. In the old days we'd get clever bon mots like "a man devoid of honor" or "how many nationality's have you been with?"
  6. Goodbye mastergiza!

  8. By the way, Neil Diamond has built his career on earworms.
  9. so good, so good, so good
  10. I actually kind of like the Beatles monument in the parking lot idea. It would be a nice touch.
  11. Outlines? Hell I think we should get Ringo himself to be a fixture in the parking lot.

  13. B-b-b-ut Derek Jeter is the greatest Yankee of all time!!!
  14. David Wright barehand. Anderson Hernandez last spring. Rusty Staub switching between left & right field.

But you know that the Irish have a natural tendency toward gardening and groundskeeping not athletics (except thoroughbred training of course). SC=100
  16. The thing that's fun about it at Fenway is that it's a fan thing. The PA announcer announcer doesn't say it's time for a singalong, the song just plays and people singalong. I think its a Boston thing actually. When I first moved to Boston in 1998 when I went to bars inevitably the song would be played and people would singalong so that they start singing along at Fenway is not surprising. I've read recently that singalong with Neil Diamond songs is big in Ireland and Britain. The bars I went to in 1998 had a lot of people from Ireland working in Boston for the summer so they may have brought their tradition to the states. So I think it's kind of fun that way, but again because the fans at Fenway originated it as opposed to some forced enthusiasm. The rest of the story.
  17. Yankees-Red Sox Rivalry Running Dangerously Low On Storylines.
  18. That's an accomplishment. As my Brooklyn-born cousin says "Queens was designed by a maniac!"
  19. seawolf17 wrote: ="Yancy Street Gang"]="Edgy DC"]And it's not about the pope. The Mets are bigger than Jesus. I agree with that, too. Jesus Alou? Ivan DeJesus? Definitely. I don't even think there's a discussion there. I think he was refering to Jesus Jones.
  20. So the Braves are down to 19 now, yes?
  21. Good, I don't like the Yankee cooties.
  22. It occurs to me that it's entirely possible the Mets may officially end the Braves divisional championship streak while the Braves are in town in two weeks. That would be delicious.
  23. Is it legal to sell a lottery ticket to a dog?
  24. The only amplification they had was Shea's regular PA system which surely was not as powerful then as it is now. Then there were the 50,000 screaming girls. I don't think actually hearing the music was part of the experience for many
