Dan Shaugnessy a bright guy? He's a self serving drama queen. He invented the the whole Curse thing to sell books and papers. He's bright in that sense, but thats more about exploiting the neuroses of your readership than it is about being a good baseball writer. I think he and Mike Lupica are WAYYYY overrated. Give me Mike and the Mad Dog for pro/con "analysis" over those clowns any day.

Dan Shauggnasy of the Boston Globe (who's usually a really bright guy) proclaimed the Yanks dead and buried, and the AL East race over, a couple of weeks ago. I wonder if he can proclaim that a couple of more times before the season's over. You Yankee haters just make me smugly chuckle. PS: White Sox are overrated. Angels would eat them up in a playoff series.

The Angels look like the best team in the American League, if the White Sox were in the NL. The Yankees' record against teams with equal or better records is well below .500 this year. Pitching wins championships, the Yankees have very little of it.
