I understand. Red Sox/Yankees rivalry is serious. Too much history. And yes (not quite as intense) is the Mets/Yankees rivalry. I’ve never been a Yankees fan, but the mug was free and would not be missed if broken, making it sacrificial. If we get a Subway WS this year, I’ll smash it beforehand as an offering to the gods. BUT… if the WS involves the Yankees with the Astros or the Dodgers… then GO, YANKEES!!!

A Chicago south sider has entered the chat……
People were actually surprised that I was willing to go to a Cubs game for a work event, and I’m known for not being a sportsball person.

There must be an app for that…
Warning: Risk of Split-thread 
Still, you must be aware of the Cubs/Mets rivalry (since 1969). The one and only time I’ve ever rooted for them was in the 2016 WS. Not that I had anything against the Cleveland (then) Indians, but the Cub’s WS dry spell was too much, and I felt sympathy for the fans (not the club) when the Mets (with not a little luck) rolled over the Cubbies in the 2015 NLCS; even then, though, I knew that the Mets would not win the WS that year. Oh, well.

So today the gas company was digging on my very narrow, private street. Something about several gas leaks.
I was expecting a large awkward package for my wife for her birthday from Amazon. Oh well, might have to wait a couple days.
I was standing outside with the neighbor watching them dig, because that never gets old, and here comes the UPS guy carrying this big box on his shoulder. I ran down to meet him and said put that down I got it from here.
No cash on me or he would have got a tip. I’ll get him next time.
