Giants suck anyway, Jets had a bad year, the yankees...well, that's a whole different story...*mumbles* damn fish...

I actually heard that the yankees have a curse of their own. A friend told me that it was "the ring curse"; apparently when the yankees won their last world series in 2000, Steinbrenner was supposed to buy championship rings for his entire staff. But being the miser he is, he still hasn't gotten the rings for some of his staff members. So the curse is that until they get their rings, the yanks won't win the world series. Myth or not? We'll find out this year...

	God grant that I may live to fish until my dying day, And when it comes to my last cast, I most humbly pray, When in the Lord's safe landing net I'm peacefully asleep, That in His mercy I be judged, as big enough to keep.
