Today marks the unofficial first day of summer. The NBA Finals are over. The Stanley Cup is over (Boston has me crying on my keyboard like Chris Bosh after a loss). All we have left is baseball. Just the way I like it. Nothing makes me happier than waking up to videos of extremely angry Canadians though. Yes, we all know that Canada is the red-headed step child of North America, but who knew that they would be this classless (wait, maybe they’ve done this before). As I drink away all my depression this weekend, at least I can take solace in the fact that our friends up north are gigantic losers. And not because they lost the game. Because they took the loss worse than when Captain Dan heard Phish was breaking up. Congrats Canada. And thank you for reminding me why the USA is fucking awesome- because we’re not Canada.
Fire up the grills, crack open the beers, and invite all the bikini-clad women over because today it is officially summer. In other summer news- Yanks rolled last night (as predicted) 12-4 over the Rangers. Yanks are currently going for the sweep and are up on the Rangers 1-0 with some scrub named Brian Gordon on the hill vs. CJ Wilson. It really must be summer because the Yankees are pulling starting pitchers out of nowhere once again. God it’s great to be American.
**UPDATE** Posada ties it 2-2 with an RBI double in the bottom of the 6th
