Play Ball !

Summer must be around the corner, because the New York Yankees played their home opener at Yankee Stadium today. The Yanks beat Detroit, 6-3.

Related: Outfielder Curtis Granderson used Rebecca Black's Friday as his at-bat music (seriously) - and hit his third consecutive Opening Day home run (below) in the 7th inning, breaking a 3-3 tie. Coincidence???

Play Ball!

The New York Yankees will receive their World Series rings today in a ceremony before the Opening Day game at Yankee Stadium.

Project Runway Update

Tim Gunn is REALLY getting us excited about the upcoming Project Runway Season 6 with his juicy hints. According to Blogging Project Runway, Tim said we can expect some drama:

"It's a great season. I'll say there's a big-time shocker, some purported cheating . . . The blogs will be clogged. They won't be able to vent enough about it.''

Lord, I don't like being "clogged" ... I'll have to get some pills. Anywhore, read more about what Tim had to say HERE.

Meanwhile, Season 5 designers (and cute couple) Daniel Feld and Wesley Nault were chosen to design, custom-fit, and produce 170 uniforms for the luxury suite staff at the brand-new Yankee Stadium...

And who did Daniel and Wesley turn to when they needed a hand...?


Stella!!!!

Play Ball!

I LOVE baseball season - and I root for both New York teams. This year both teams will debut shiny new stadiums (thanks to former Mayor Rudy Giuliani). The new Yankee Stadium opens tomorrow, and opening day at Citi Field (the new Mets stadium) is April 13. Play ball!!

Farewell To Yankee Stadium

The New York Yankees played their very last game in “The House That Ruth Built” last night. It was an emotional night, and must admit I shed some tears at the end when team captain (and former Daddy of the Day) Derek Jeter thanked the fans. The Yankees will play across the street at the NEW Yankee Stadium next year.

Many former Yankees returned to take part in the farewell ceremony before the game – including Yogi Berra, Whitey Ford, and Reggie Jackson. But perhaps the loudest cheers were for Puerto Rican Papi Bernie Williams, who retired in 2006. Bernie was my favorite Yankee – always laid back, adorable, and an excellent hitter.

Thanks for the memories!
