AND THEN THE CLOUDS PARTED


When I got up this moring it was bleak and overcast. I am referring to both the weather and my mood. Co-workers who know my love for the Yankees didn't bother me. As the morning went by my mood and the weather subsided. But it was no longer raining and I realized that it is what it is and there was a possibility that we had seen Mo for the last time. We had good memories of him and he would always be a Yankee. Bottom line is life moves on and so will the season.

As the later afternoon came I noticed out my office window the sun had come out and the wind had died down. It seemed a little calmer than the morning. The same was true for Mariano Rivera. As he spoke to reporters again today in the clubhouse he told them, last night he went back to his hotel room and decided he was not going out this way. He then reiterated that point by saying "I will be back. Write it down in big letters. I don't care how long it takes or how hard it is, I will be back". That is the heart and mind of a champion.

He will be back, there is no doubt because there is no quit in Mariano Rivera. See you soon Mo!
