Exclamation

REVWARDOC et al -

The boast of "HEY, WE WON" is one (unfortunately), that I can not partake of! For you see, although I too am from Massachusetts (originally), my wife is from the Charlotte, North Carolina area! LOL "However, at least the game was close!!"

I do recall, however, my wife saying that her and her dad, who served upon (I believe) a destroyer escort in the North Atlantic (WWII), use to watch games between the N.Y. Yankees and whatever team they were playing against. My wife would always root for the Yankees, and her father for any other team that they were pitted against! I think that this was because Micky Mantle played for the Yanks?!

"Now I ask you - is that any way for a "Southin Gal" to act?!"
