The Curse of Hillary Posted by The Hermit Crab on Wednesday, November 04, 2009 10:57:48 PM The New York Yankees apparently are finishing off the Philadelphia Phillies to win the World Series. Normally this would interest me very little, as I am one of those recalcitrant fans who never forgave baseball for cancelling the Series in 1994. When that happened, the little boy in me died. The steroid scandals and the resulting destruction of the credibility of so many baseball records have made it east to stay away from the game I once loved. I do miss listening to Tim...

It is almost playoff and World Series time again in Major League Baseball. Here are the CURRENT STANDINGS and how things are shaping up for the playoffs. It is not a happy time for the New York Yankees, whose chance of even making the playoffs this year is very, very slim. There is a reason the Yankees have not won the World Series since 2000. It is called THE HILLARY CURSE. A few years ago, the Boston Red Sox finally broke the CURSE OF THE BAMBINO. The Chicago Cubs are still burdened by the CURSE OF THE BILLY GOAT. We...

The Hillary Curse continues. No New York team has won a major championship since Hillary was elected Senator from New York. Last night, the Curse continued, as the New York Yankees, $200 million payroll and all, were eliminated once again from the baseball playoffs. As an explanation point, the Buffalo Bills lost on Monday Night Football in the most bizarre fashion, giving up a late touchdown, stuffing the 2 point conversion, losing a onside kick, and giving up a 53-yard field goal to lose by 1 point. Yes, Hillary and her master are smiling from that hot place down below....

COME AND SING "THE HILLARY CURSE" HERE IS THE BOXSCORE. Cleveland eliminates the Yankees, 3 games to 1, with a 6-4 victory in game four. Since carpetbagging Hillary Rodham Clinton was elected senator, New Yorkers have paid a heavy price. The Yankees have not won a World Series since she was elected. No major New York sports team has won a champsionship. THE HILLARY CURSE is alive and well.

Report: Steinbrenner says Torre's job on the line against Indians ESPN.com news services As the Yankees stand on the brink of elimination in the first round of the playoffs for the third season in a row, owner George Steinbrenner says longtime manager Joe Torre needs his team to advance to the ALCS if he wants to keep managing the club. "His job is on the line," Steinbrenner told The Bergen Record. "I think we're paying him a lot of money. He's the highest-paid manager in baseball, so I don't think we'd take him back if we don't win this series."...

CLEVELAND -- The Yankees are in the playoffs thanks in large part to a lineup that led the major leagues by batting .290 and scoring 5.98 runs per game during the regular season, but their bats are killing them in the division series against the Indians and it could lead to lineup changes for Game 3. The Yankees, who scored 968 runs this season - the most in the majors since 2000 - have just four in two playoff games and are batting a laughable .121 (8-for-66) after getting only three hits in last night's 11-inning loss. Alex Rodriguez, Jorge...

We've been documenting here at F.R. the now famous "Hillary Curse." For those of you new here, the "Hillary Curse" is this; no professional New York team has won a championsip in any sport since November of 2000, the date when New Yorkers saw fit to elect Hillary Clinton as their senator. The Jets and Giants of football, the Rangers, Islander and Sabers of hockey, the Knicks of basketball, and the Yankees and Mets of baseball, all have fell under the curse by being either A) terrible, or B) good teams who lose in spectacular fashion. The Yankees of 2003...

Well itÂ’s nearly September and Boston sits atop the American League East 8 games ahead of their arch rivals. Wether this series beginning tonight will mean a heck of a lot is yet to be seen, if the Yanks sweep it will still leave them 5 games back with 28 left to play. Still a lot of ball left. The thumping handed out to New York courtesy of the Detroit Tigers yesterday (16-0) is truly humiliating for a team so rich in history, world series titles and self absorbency. It requires a shrink to put it in perspective. The pride...

DETROIT (AP) -- Three years ago, they lost 119 games and were a punchline. You know, the Detroit Tigers ... ha, ha, ha. Funny game, baseball. The Tigers are the ones laughing loudest now -- and dancing their way to the AL championship series. And the New York Yankees? Well, they're the joke. Jeremy Bonderman was perfect for five innings and sublime for 8 1-3 in leading Detroit to an 8-3 victory in Game 4 on Saturday to win the AL playoff series and eliminate A-Rod, Jeter and the other high-priced, high-profile Yankees. Days removed from being swept by Kansas...

The Hillary Curse continues. Everyone knows of the Curse of the Bambino foisted on long suffering Boston Red Sox fans until finally vanquished in 2004. I've been tracking The Hillary Curse. What is that, you may ask? Well, ever since the voters of New York saw fit to alect Hillary Clinton as their Senator in 2000, no New York professional team has won any championship. Yep, go check for yourselves. Not the vaunted Yankees, Mets, Rangers, Knicks, Jets or Giants have won the ultimate prize; God's little payback for the b*itch. Tonight, 2 days after the Democratic convention in Buffalo,...

Colon leaves early, but Angels 'pen shuts down Yanks ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) -- The Angels were down and their ace was out. In came a 22-year-old rookie with a defiant look in his eye and the season on the line. Ervin Santana pitched 5 1-3 gutsy innings in his postseason debut, Adam Kennedy hit a go-ahead triple that sent Yankees outfielders crashing to the ground, and Los Angeles beat New York 5-3 Monday night in the decisive Game 5 of their AL playoff series. "It was tough. We didn't have a lot of options," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "We...
