    NEW YORK–Michael Grippo, a 95-year-old Bronx native, told reporters Wednesday that he is "worried sick" that he won't live to see the Yankees win another 27 World Series titles. "We came so close in 1955, 1960, 1976, 2001, and 2004. If we had won just one of those, that would have been 27 right there," said Grippo, adding that while he was in attendance for Tommy Henrich's walk-off homer in 1949, Don Larson's perfect game in 1956, and Mickey Mantle's game-ending home run in 1964, none of it will matter if the Yankees don't win at least another 27 World Series championships. "I'll say this, if we could take home 27 championships just one more time, my soul will rest easy." Grippo said that, if nothing else, he hoped his six children and 21 grandchildren would get to see the Yankees win just 1,396 more World Series in their lifetimes.

    however, in defense of Houston; that is most pro sports cities. even the Washington redskins, noted
    for having legendary fans has pretty pathetic crowds this year; people don't show unless you win.


    segue:

    the astros are in real trouble. if their two aces do not come up aces in games 2 and 3; it's a yankess - nationals series. dammit, I would have liked to see an astros cardinals series.

    Astros fans are awful, and I live int the tri state surrounded by Yankees fans and the stro fans are still worse. Yamkees fans are arrogant and entitled but they have a reason and know baseball
    . I still always support the NL in the series, unless its the Giants.

    Which, the Correa "look at me" HR trot/engagement, or Kate Upton jumping up and down in the club box?

    astros fans are awful because ? they only show up when theyre winning, sure; but that's most pro cities.

    just curious as Houston fans in general are pretty mild mannered.
