I'm in New York for this. On Long Island. Just under an hour east of the Barclays Center in the sleepy hamlet of Bellmore, at my girlfriend's family's house, visiting for a long weekend.
The girlfriend is keeping the TV on E! until 12:00 on the dot, watching a Keeping Up with the Kardashians re-run. Yes – one featuring Kris Humphries (gut punch no. 1). When the time comes, we'll switch over to YES, since I'll be watching this unfold on the official network of the New York Yankees (gut punch no. 2). The suspense builds with each minute as we approach high noon.
11:56... 11:57... 11:58... 11:59...
And we're in.
