Well… the day is finally here!
All of the Vander Linden boys are Yankee fans! Gerritt, Jakob and Joshua are all on my side! It took awhile for Josh- but it happened. In the begining of April- he was still liking the team that was winning their games- so he was liking the Red Sox more. But his baseball number is 20 so every time the Yankees game would come on I would call him over to see Jorge Posada- the same number as him. And we have a guy that sometimes plays first base- Josh Phelps- that every time he comes up- we say- GO JOSH!!! He likes that! Anyway- this past weekend when Boston beat up on the Yankee pitchers he was whining that the Yankees were losing! And he asked for a Jorge Posada jersey- which he will be getting for his birthday! I transformed him! My sons don’t have to suffer being Red Sox fans!!! Life is great! BJ insists that they will come to their senses and become Red Sox fans- but I think I’m instilling enough hatred for the stinky sox that I think I will win!!!
GO YANKEES!!!
