Looking To Buy: Yankee Blinders

Does anyone know where I can get a pair of Yankee Blinders?

You know, the device that fits on your head, only allowing you to see good things (albeit real or wishful thinking) about the Yankees - while "blinding" (blocking out) anything from the hard factual world?

Can they be bought? Or, can you only make them yourself (with Mommy's permission, of course) out of cardboard using safety scissors and pipe cleaners?

Last question - - when wearing them, is the rest of your IQ affected, or just your baseball perception.

Thanks - inquiring minds want to know.

Alas, as feared. Probably only removable via decapitation as well.

Or doses of Baseball Prospectus administered 4 times a day for a month.

Intravenously or as a suppository?

Depends on the person and the severity of the blinders.

Makes sense. It was silly of me to ask.

I think just being a Yankee fan entitles you to have been born with them.
