Ahh Chuck, it's not too late to give your young daughter a precious gift: the gift of being able to revel in the thrill of confidently and proudly proclaiming "nyah nyah" without expecting to incur the wrath of the many gods of baseball. Please, it's not too late to make her a Yankees fan!

But I will say that this team is much better than the ALCS team of '99 and that this Yankees team -- despite the 100 wins -- is not as strong as the team that beat the Sox in '99. Should be a great series.

This better team didn't show up very often against the dreadfully suicidal A's. Maybe they'll arrive soon?
