I So HATE the NY Yankees

It's playoff time again, and that means it's GroundHog Day if you're a Red Sox fan who roots hard for the Yankees to lose. (when the Sox have failed to make the playoffs)
Tonight, the Rangers jumped out to a 5-0 lead over the Yanks, and, even better, they knocked Yanks' super ace C.C. Sabathia out of the game. I had been listening on my car radio, but, when I got home, I couldn't resist the potential joy of witnessing a Yankee loss of a first game of a playoff series.
I still wasn't "sold" on the game being over. We Yankee-haters have learned for more than a decade that a five-run lead against the Evil Bombers is not big enough. C.J. Wilson, the Rangers' starter was looking awfully impressive, however. He looked confident as he fooled many Yankee hitters with his off-speed stuff. Slowly, gradually, I got sucked into the game and I was fantasizing about the end of the game --- the "buzz" that would be created by the Rangers beating Sabathia. With Cliff Lee due to pitch in Game 3 and Game 7, if necessary, suddenly, I
could imagine, if only for a split second, the possibility of the Rangers winning the series.
And then, the Yankees did their usual GroundHog Day thing. They rallied for five runs in the 9th inning. The Rangers' bullpen collapsed --- and, yet, it didn't seem surprising.
No.................................At this point, any kind of rally by the Yankees, and, especially their come-from-behind rallies late in the game, do NOT - I repeat - do NOT surpise me or many other fans. It's the opposite, effect, in fact. As soon as the Yanks begin their so-predictable rally or "march" to take the game, I can easily imagine the rest of the rally and the end of the game.
Tonight, once the Yanks got the game from them trailing by four (5-1) to trailing by 1 (5-4), the
game felt "over" to me -- in the Yank's favor. I turned the channel. I didn't want to watch all the details. I sensed they'd score more runs to go ahead, and, sure enough, when I checked back about 15 minutes later, the Yanks were up 6-5. I watched Mariano Rivera shut the Rangers
down. Do any of you - at this point - ever believe Rivera will NOT get the save? If so, you
must not have suffered through watching him celebrate the nauseatingly high number of wins
that I've witnessed him celebrate.
I am SO SICK of the Yankees. Aren't you? They always do this. The script is the same. A few players change year to year....but the storyline is the same and it goes like this: The Yankees are so fucking stacked with talent that no matter how many innings it takes them, eventually, their surplus - their tremendous edge in talent - emerges and shows itself and they win the game. They might as well be robots at this point.
It's SO boring and sickening to watch them win in the same way, in the same patterns - year after year.
I beg the Philadelphia Phillies to eliminate the Yankees this year. Please take me out of Yankee GroundHog Day. It's a drab place to be. And Bill Murray isn't around in this version.
