If we were on a beach, I’d buy you a Piña Colada right now. Note: Real name of Rupert Holmes is David Goldstein.  Worst song ever. Holmes also wrote a lesser known hit with the lyrics "...my stomach was full as it could be; and nobody ever got round to finding, Timothy." The soul of Shakespeare trembles in the ether. |

They played at my wife's prom. Good catch. |

The soul of Shakespeare trembles in the ether. In the context of the song, it makes perfect sense and explains the essense of the song. Don't remember it? |

Gallo needs to get off the schneid! I’m comfortable waiting for a night when the rest of the team doesn’t produce ten or more runs… |

Gallo needs to get off the schneid! Love that phrase. The schneid. Yiddish has so many words describing futility. |

If this keeps going we’re going to lapse into discussion of Holme’s similarity to Bertie Higgins. Then we’ll be completely off the rails… “Sailing away to Key Largo”… |

Then he writes that sappy, icky, awful, terrible song about pina coladas. |

But Allen was someone else's player. Yeah, when did Allen become ours and thereby need replacing? That makes him a true Yankee now! |

Gallo needs to get off the schneid! Yeah, Gallo is a better base runner and defensive OF than hitter. |
