Great NY Collapses!

Well, this post is about sports teams collapsing in New York. It's not about the Empire State Building falling down or the NYSE crashing. First, let's talk about the NY Yankees. They lost in the AL Division Series to the Cleveland Indians, 3-1.

Heck, Joe Torre may lose his job. But, it's not the right move. Joe Torre should leave on his own accord. Let's hope that the Boss (aka George Steinbrenner) doesn't get rid of the perennial Torre. Next, the Knicks coach Isiah Thomas is found guilty of sexual harassment. David Stern should suspend the coach for the first five games of the year, for his ridiculous comments to a former MSG employee. Finally, the Dallas Cowboys beat the Buffalo Bills tonight in MNF. The bills lost by 1 point. The cowboys came from behind to win the game. The 'Boys were down 24 - 13, and they pulled off an incredible victory. Now, the Romo led Cowboys are undefeated. Romo had a really bad night, yet he shined in the end by throwing 11 out of 14 completions for two late dallas scores. On a side note, G. Ripley hopes that you like the images in this post. Last but not least, the stock market endured its last big crash in October 1987. It'll be 20 years later (at the end of this month), and a lot of financial upheavals have occurred in Wall Street since that day. The market is now past 14,000 on the DJIA, while the Nasdaq has seen some good trading days of late also. Finally, financial enthusiasts should pick up the latest book by Alan Greenspan. In his book, Alan criticizes the current president of the US and it's shocking. Long live Alan and G. Ripley is fortunate to have met you! Good night & Good luck!
