Good times

While AARP member Wakefield was getting win #200 (yawn), Mariano Rivera, the greatest closer in history, was busy saving #600, Dear Roxy! What an amazing accomplishment and feat, and doing so with one team. But wait! It doesn't end there. One more win and he'll tie Hoffman for most all time, and two more to make him #1, a feat I don't think will ever be surpassed. What do you think, Rox?




Speaking of great Yankees, Jeter was honored during the Angels series last weekend. Funny story since they mention the cold-blooded Californians didn't want Jeter to be honored in their hometown. And I'm far behind, but did you hear Jeter passed Mickey Mantle as the team's all-time leader in games played?

And with a few weeks left, the Yankees are holding on to their lead in the East. Is the Red Sox nation nervous about the fighting Rays? Who would've thought this could happen a mere two weeks ago. Certainly not you, hehe.

Congrats to #1 Novak Djokovic in his first US Open Championship. What an exciting match (at least the third set). I can honestly say this guy is amazing. The way he's playing this year is no wonder he's 64-2.

Football is back but Peyton isn't. What a sad time in football... Plus, the Dolphins and Canes aren't doing too well. But hey, there's always the 2-0 FIU Golden Panthers!
