  1. Yeah, the Sox and Yanks don't have nukes.

    Bingo.

    Although, theoretically, Steinbrenner could afford a half dozen or so.

    They'd be cheaper than A-Rod.

    But would they be as effective as A-Rod?

    Don't give Steinbrenner any ideas.

    Pakistan and India have such a brutal rivalry (literally) that they can't play each other in either country. Didn't they have to play recent matches in Toronto?

    My knowledge of the sub-continent is a little weak, but didn't India and Pakistan go to war over a sports event?
    It seems like they did, back in the early 70s. It was either soccer or cricket, but I don't remember which. Or maybe it was both. Seems like they are always looking for an excuse to fight.

    The question is: Would Yankee fans boo the nukes if they didn't deliver in the clutch?

    Yeah. It's the same reason Indiana and Kentucky don't blame games anymore at Bloomington and Lexington, respectively.

    (They're playing in Rupp this year for the first time in eons because of a scheduling snafu in Louisville. I assume they're only using Rupp because there were no death cages available to host the event.)

    (And yes, I know they actually use the Dome and Freedom Hall to make more money.)
