Hitting Bombs
The 14-month soap opera of the daily news can be mind-numbing.
I’m tired to the endless, nasty tweets, the accusations, the guns, murder...
...needed a reprieve.
I got a Twitter message.

...the New York Freaking Yankees are stretching their muscle!
And the Yankees being who they are, they put their two gigantic homerun monsters on display.
They’re calling them Judge and Fury.
Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton were placed in the same group for batting practice. Gary Sanchez and Jacoby Ellsbury were teamed with them.
Judge and Stanton only hit four homers between them in four rounds of BP. Sanchez hammered the longest blast of the day.
So, not a whole lot of baseball went on yet...
...but there’s a reason to get excited.
‘Cause the season is just about 40 days away!
I’m more comfortable with life during baseball season. There’s no more worrying about what I might watch as I finish up paperwork, work on the next chapter, or plan the schedule.
One of my first thoughts of the day will be game time and who’s turn it is in the rotation.
Will Judge, Stanton and Sanchez hit back-to-back-to-back?
Maris hit 61. Mantle hit 54
Can Judge and Fury hit more than 115?
That’s a whole lot of homers...
...and what’s even more exciting is that they’re even deeper than that.
Bird, Didi, Hicks, Gardner, Torres and Andujar.
They have the chance to be a great team.
Title #28 is a distinct possibility...
...and that gives me a lot of time to direct my efforts in doing something more than worrying about who is lying about what to get their lying ass out of whatever garbage that they’re lying about in an effort to steal as much money as they can.
Because baseball makes everything better.
And hope springs eternal!
Go Yankees!!
Let’s hit some homers!
