Witness to History
now ---- the Avid Yankee Haters are not the ones that are impressed by what you have witnessed ....
Aaron Judge ties Roger Maris with 61 home runs,,, the most ever hit in the American League... I will leave the discussion of who is the True Home run king for another day....
I expect that Judge will hit at least one more in the next 7 games....
I am trying to think of what I saw as a kid --- Mantle , Gibson, Koufax, Drysdale, Gossage, yes, Bonds,,, Mguire, Sosa, Reggie, Mattingly, Nolan Ryan, and then what you guys have witnessed :
Mariano - the all time saves leader and only unanimous player voted to the HOF
Jeter - an amazing career,
Pujols - hitting 700 Home runs,,, and I expect is the next unanimous HOF'er..
and now Aaron Judge- a guy we heard about in the Yankee organization for a few years,,, Remember ,,, Judge, Greg Bird (spose to be the best hitter of them all) and Gary Sanchez... Well - Bird got hurt , and was never the Same,,, Sanchez was great for season,, but his strikeouts and lack of defense made him impossible to keep.... and Judge - coming into his own.... with a huge Free Agent Contract coming from Some team!!
Now he is 30 years old ,, not a Mike Trout that was I think 24 25 when he signed his last contract... however, i still expect Judge to get 8-10 years, and 30 - 40 million per year. I am just hoping that this is with the Yankees....

Music Sunday -
Do you walk around humming songs in your head ,,, or singing them right out loud ??
Is there one that get stuck in your head,, and it seems that when your brain has nothing else to do - it harkens back to that song ??
what song is that ??? well you don;t need to answer .... I'll go first. One of the "DST Lunch lounge themes in the past weeks was RAIN .... Songs, Lyrics, band names that had the word RAIN or talked of RAIN...
SO - one of the ones that I thought of was an OLD SONG - by a guy you might not even know named Brook Benton - and Rainy Night in Georgia ... this song from 1970 ... oh my god....
Brook passed in 1988 from pneumonia after having spinal meningitis left him very weak,, he was just 56.
Local artists was another - How about Mary Fahl from Rockland County...
this is an October Project song - Return to Me
Finally the Theme was Piano players..
Here is my suggestion - Tori Amos.with a Nirvana Song as only Tori can....

What a tangled web we weave..
"Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive!" (Sir Walter Scott, 1808)..
“Because you’re sending it to Mar-a-Lago or wherever you’re sending it.
What is this some kinda Jedi mind trick.... These are not the documents that you zre looking for ............... What BULL SHIT !
But hey - you Trumplfucks just keep eating it up....
IF Garland has any balls at all - he needs to indict the The Orange Potato.
This web of Deceit and Attempted COUP ,,, and them working to infiltrate voting machines, and Steal documents is far more reaching than we ever imagined,,,, there Must be accountability - and an arrest of the Former POTUS....

Chasing history - ALL RISE !!!
ALL RISE !!!!!!!!
You are watching History being made right before your eyes....
Now - IF you are a Yankee Hater - and there are lots around,,,, you are not thrilled,,,, but if you are a yankee fan - or a baseball fan really - this is impressive,,, Aaron Judge has 60 home runs - he has tied Babe Ruth for 2nd all time in the American League - Only Roger Maris is in front of him at 61... This morning he leads all of MLB by 20 Homers - .. and he is the leader in all three Triple Crown categories - Homers(60) , RBI's (128) and Average (316) ....
Do I think he will win a Triple crown - No I don't, that does not lessen this Historic season one bit. !
Of all the seasons since they been doing this there have been only a few Triple crown guys ... Let's look at the last 75 years..... Williams, Mantle, Robinson, Yazstrzemski, and Cabrera - that's it... 5 guys .... in 75 years......... wanna go back farther... To guys like Gehrig, Foxx, Cobb, Gibson, Hornsby.... 27 since 1878.... So - yea this is not easy to do.... But hey we will see....
IF the guys in the running for the Three categories,,, play all the games, take all their at Bats,,, Who ever wins - WINS...
Judge is 8th - all time in Single Season homers - ...... with 15 games to go..... truly amazing...
Judge from a few years ago ....

It's at least possible that B.I.N.G.O. was the Farmers name - not the Dogs !
IF history repeats itself like they say - I am getting Dinosaur !
