Jess, Taters, Yankess

Well, over the past few weeks Jess has been posting comments on my blog posts.

For those who don't know yet...
Jess is my girlfriend, and here is a picture of her...















Where were you for Game 4 of the NBA Finals?
I was with Jess.

One thing about Jess that amuses me is how much she loves the Indiana Jones films. I went to see the new Indy film with her at midnight the day it opened. She was giddy with excitement for the film and drooling over the guys who had whip and fedoras. As much as a fan she is, she does have her limits...
But Taters of the Lost Ark is a bit too much even for her!

Another thing that has been amusing me is that Jess has been saying that I am a Yankee Fan.

In fact, this is true.
To put it bluntly, I'm a better Yankee Fan than most New Yorkers.

So for saying that...
The majority of my family (siblings, aunts, uncles, and others alike) are right now going for the pitchforks and torches...

Now hold on... I can explain...

In order to be a better Red Sox fan, I turned and looked at what the Evil Empire is doing. Learning their tactics, their ways... and understanding how they can be defeated. It's not that I like A-Rod... I just cheered when it was announced he got put on the 15-day disabled list with a Grade 2 strain of his right quadriceps, (though it was backed dated a few days). And to think he almost was a Red Sox.

So it's not that I really like them, I just know the team better than a regular fan does because it enhances my enjoyment of the game. Plus, it's gleefully awesome to see them stink like rotten eggs from the basement of the division.

This blog post was her challenge to me:
1) Post a picture of her...
2) Talk about the Yankees...
3) Talk about the Taters of the Lost Ark.
