Ut-Lee show too much for Yanks in Game 1 | MLB.com: News

Cliff Lee shut down the Mercenaries Yankees, and Chase Utley treated The House That Exorbitant Cable Fees Built like his own personal Southern marriage and the Phillies won Game 1 of the World Series.

Granted, I’m not a huge Phillies fan, but the team seems to be full of good guys and hell, I’d root for a team full of cracked-crazed murderers over the Yankees. Besides, I’m a National League guy anyway.

Here’s a look at a very nonchalant Cliff lee I’d like to pass along.

Granted, it is only one game, but a quote from this recap tells the tale:

They call it a long series, but Lee just shortened it. If he’s going to be Beckett, or Schilling, or Morris, he just shortened it a lot.

A couple of more notes on the Yankees. Turns out that on top of gouging their fans for seats, they also like to jerk their fans around as to whether tickets are available or not.

Up next, the possible restoration of the Legend of Pedro Rodriguez.

Yes, the Phillies may yet lose the whole damn thing, but today feels good.

Men, we are officially obsolete

This morning I heard that I’d better improve on my taking the trash out routine if I want to stay useful at home.

According to a new bit o’research, scientists can now make sperm and eggs from stem cells. Yes, that’s right, men are no longer needed for reproduction.

Granted, this will be cool for some gay couples who can now genuinely have children that have the genes of both parents. Hopefully that should be enough to silence the anti-gay marriage bigots, but I doubt anything less than a tac nuke on their hate-filled homes would accomplish that.

That said, as far as the male part of the species is concerned, we’ve got some reason for worry.
