I've got the Fever

Saw Fever Pitch the other night and besides the fact that this Yankee fans doesn't hide his distaste for the Red Sox, it was terrifically fun.

Jimmy Fallon, who's not much a baseball guy, really captured the fanaticism of Red Sox Nation and the boyish enthusiasm for baseball, that some of us try to maintain but it's almost impossible as we get older.

And what's with Drew Barrymore? She can be awfully likeable in stuff like this, "The Wedding Singer" and "Never Been Kissed" but so grating in the "Charlies Angels" nonsense.

Anyway, this one will go down as one of great baseball films that doesn't take itself too seriously. Kind of like the Caddyshack of baseball.

Go Yankees!
