John Sterling drinking game

Folks, here is a fun one to get you through those painfully long Mike Mussina starts.

Drink 6
Whenever John Sterling says something nasty about "those moneyball folks."

Drink 5
Whenever John Sterling says something statistically counterintuitive, i.e. "I can't believe Giambi just got on base."

Drink 4
Whenever John Sterling makes a sexually suggestive comment about one of the Yankees, i.e. "Bobby Abreu is as sweet as candy." I kid you not. He actually says that.

Drink 3
Whenever John Sterling mentions the words "clutch" and "Jeter" in the same sentence.

Drink 2
Whenever John Sterling yells "on the track, at the wall" for a routine pop fly that is nowhere near the track or the wall.

Drink 1
Whenever John Sterling explicitly says "You just can't predict baseball."

Just be sure to stock up on the alcohol.

apparently a negative comment about a negative comment about "those moneyball folks" will get you a link on athleticsnation!

I wish I had read this before today's game. I would've had a lot more fun. The "you can't predict baseball" comment gets on my nerves so much, and he said it today too. Explicitly, as you put it.
