I do like to listen to Yankees radio, though, so I can hear Suzan Wolman, the only female, full-time color announcer. For her, I can put up with John Sterling.unmitigated mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13901264130484454602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-468223150447785936.post-66600023665829251662015-10-26T09:53:44.833-07:002015-10-26T09:53:44.833-07:00I am really sorry about your Blue Jays.

He says if Canadians want to be the best in a sport, it should be Curling or something. Neither one of us has a dog in the fight unless the Yankees are in it, in which case we like the other dog.Murr Brewsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03422638986410813520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-468223150447785936.post-82897363199982878462015-10-26T09:51:42.451-07:002015-10-26T09:51:42.451-07:00I guess love is a better deal than athletic skills...I guess love is a better deal than athletic skills, but I'd make a deal with the devil to be able to fire a ball to home plate from the outfield.Murr Brewsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03422638986410813520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-468223150447785936.post-88108769654381848162015-10-26T07:51:44.317-07:002015-10-26T07:51:44.317-07:00As a huge fan of the game who is just detoxxing af...As a huge fan of the game who is just detoxxing after her beloved Blue Jays got knocked out by the Royals, this sweet tale was such a tonic and a balm to my nearly broken heart.
