1.) The Yankees did not get into the World Series. 2.) The team I was rooting for won the World Series. So that makes it a good year. My favourite football team has not lost a single game this year and it is not in Pittsburgh. It hasn’t won a game either, but neither have its heated rivals. This is a strange year.
I think it’s another reflection of Jewish humor – we’re big kvetchers (complainers, etc. – but maybe it didn’t work so well this time. I dunno. And ‘Futzing’ is probably related to some Yiddish word for ‘messing around’. I don’t quite get the Yankees thing except, well, NYC probably still have the biggest J. population of any city in the world. Baghdad might have beaten in by now, but sadly, almost all the Jews left ;(
Oh it makes more sense too if you add the game show title to the beginning of every sentence. (“For crying out loud! Quit your futzing!”).Which makes it kinda funny. I mean, not ROTF funny, but…Hang in there, my goysche friends ;)

I guess none of this makes sense to me, other than a reference to Jeopardy.

Two in a row that don’t make sense.
