Can I borrow a feeling?

So, the heir apparent to the Yankee dynasty hit a slight snag. The fact that his marriage is ending. Why does that matter? Well...he was married to the Boss's daughter. Woopsie.

But I have to ask, does this remind anybody else of The Simpsons?

Milhouse's parents get divorced, and his father Kirk loses his job at the cracker factory as a result. Because Luann's father is the owner. Oh, and because crackers are a family food, of course.

I don't know, having real life imitate a Simpson's plot is funny enough, but for it to happen to the Yankees heir apparent is even funnier to me.

Better luck next time, Mr. Swindal.

    i think it's funny to equate the Yankees to a family. unless you mean the "Italian sort of family." =P

    I can apply the simpsons to almost every situation in life. Just today, I was comparing one of my colleagues to Dr. Hibbert. Now I can only hope that Milhouse's dad will end up in a sleazy bachelor apartment community, just like the real Milhouse's dad...

Feel free to comment. So that I may respond and possibly mock and ridicule you. Just kidding. Maybe. We'll see what you say first, how about that.
