How 2008 Will Be--A Newsday writer's guess

  • (Hold on--he has Paul Byrd pitching a complete game in the post season...)
"Roger Clemens, taking advantage of Bud Selig's general amnesty agreement, signed with the Yankees on Aug. 30 and made a surprise appearance in Hank Steinbrenner's box at Yankee Stadium. Broadcaster Suzyn Waldman, overcome with emotion, passed out. She recovered with the aid of a B-12 shot from an unnamed former athletic trainer, who happened to be in the press box taping a segment for "60 Minutes." Her first words were "Oh, your gracious goodness" (a phrase that was included in every article about Clemens the rest of the season). The Yankees lost in the first round to the Indians. The turning point was Game 3, when Joba Chamberlain, in relief of Johan Santana, seemed a little unnerved by a swarm of locusts. From Newsday article by Mark Hermann, "2008, The Year About to Be," 12/29/07
