The Twighlite Zone



Now that Andy Pettitte is on his way home in a stunning attempt just to make a sick, 16 million dollar, Yankeeography, now there is talk that Clemens wants to also come on back to the house that Ruth built. Pettitte alone is a good signing (maybe), but his signing, even if he doesn't preform as amazing as we would all like, is invaluable if he can in turn bring us Rocket.

First off if Clemens comes as well, the rotation would be quite bulked up. That rotation would include Clemens, Pettitte, Wang, Igawa, Pavano, Randy Johnson, and also a newly resigned Moose. But even if the senior's club of pitchers flop, like many of our latest free-agent arms, it could still be a sucess. Let me tell you why...

Ok prepare to enter my Twighlite Zone. Since Rocket left, the Yankees have not won the series, and even worse, the Red Sox won a series, inturn reversing/breaking the curse. Now, follow me here... Before every game Roger pitched at Yankee Stadium, he would rub the head of Babe Ruth in monument park. Babe Ruth is also the generator of the curse isn't he? He was the one that started it all, leaving the Red Sox hopeless (how they should be) for what seemed to be until the end of time, until the Rocket left.

The ghost of Babe and Rocket obviously had some kind of special kinda relationship that when Roger left the Yankees, Babe reversed the curse on their ass. Bringing Roger back would inevitably then, put the curse back in the Yankee's favor. Sentencing the Red Sox to more doom, and bringing the Yankees the World Series title back.

Even if you don't think this makes sense...Clemens is a dick head...which is what the Yanks need. When was the last time they got in a fight... or threw at someones head (even if it is their wife's)...or threw a broken bat at someone. This deal can only bring positives even if Rocket doesn't pitch out of his mind.
