(if you see this a lot, Semagic is being a bitch)
Though I wouldn't mind it just being about my hate for Atlanta.
So. Let's see. Things I loved tonight with the 24-hours of Yankee coverage it seems on YES and/or ESPN:
- Yogi Berra & Whitey Ford telling stories in the broadcast booth. I told my mom to come pick me up from papa's because ESPN's announcers were/are shit and I couldn't take it anymore, I'd rather run home to Suzy's smokers voice (and that's saying a lot). But, Yogi and Whitey together were amazing.
- David Cone and A TAN AND NICE LOOKING Boomer Wells talking nonstop to each other. More BFFEs.
- Johnny Damon not realizing they called him for the lineup and someone having to go into the dugout to find him.
- Joba being RIGHT THERE for the pre-show things and just WATCHING all the legends.
- Pettite, no matter how shitty he's been this year, getting the final start, Mo getting the final close. Awesome.
- Paul O'Neill being the first player to go into the crowd with the bleacher creatures.
- ESPN being awesome when they literally showed the Bleacher's roll-call and Joe "Imma Idiot" Morgan, talking about it to the people at home and not mentioning the last part. And then the cut to the "game" for the last part. AKA: When the chat turns into a big FUCK YOU to the boxed seats <333333.
- Bernie Williams. Like. Bernie Williams. Okay, I have to say more than that. He is one of my favorites, one of my crushes, I thought it was shit what they did to him in his last year (for one thing, they should've had him retired the year before). And then the almost crying. And the pointing to his heart. And MY heart breaking.
- oh cap'n, my cap'n. Derek played hurt. I don't mention it enough but, I love Derek Jeter.
- I can't wait to see the random Yankees parade on the field on my tape. It sounds amazing on the radio.
- Mussina gets his peons to steal dirt for him. God, I love him.
- "Yeah, everyone wants to stick around for awhile. It says so much about the fans here..." - Derek Jeter on the radio.
- Oh God. Mussina just told me that he's been here for 8 years. I can't believe it.
- Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. They are playing "Goodnight Sweetheart" awww.
- Joba's stealing dirt. And and and supposedly his hands are shaking. I want to give him a hug.
-![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
madlikerya: Derek with tears in his eyes! his circuits are gonna short if he isnt careful about that shit.
- "Thank god for them (the fans)" - Mo.
- Posada, Tino, Derek and Mo took pictures of all four of them together wtih their own cameras so they could have pictures. Aw. My heart.
- Brian Cashman is being talked to too. He said that Tino was at the game yesterday with his family in-cognito in the stands to see a game that way <3.
[Yogi] Berra, a 10-time champion often considered the greatest living Yankee, didn’t really need any more souvenirs—although he said he wouldn’t mind leaving with the final home plate of the ballpark he loved.
“I hate to see it go,” he said. “It will always be in my heart.”
