Your 56 chevy rides in cutting through the thick smoke you can barely see through. You hit wall of traffic and now you wish you were home in California chugging down Margarita's on the beach, but not until you see Yankee Stadium pop up like an oasis in a desert do you realize that you really love New York. | ||||||||||||||||

Yankees will win World Series 4. The Mets won't 5. The Mets will acquire yet another overpaid "star" only for him to break up the team chemistry and sign a 91 million dollar contract. 6. the Mets will yet again be the Mets ( oh the shame ) 7. Kerry Collins will lead the Giants to a playofff berth. 8. Jets will reach the Super Bowl if John Elway retires. 9. Ricky Ledee will win Rookie of the Year 10.
