TV execs have been dreaming about this one since 1981, and now it’s here: a Yankees-Dodgers World Series.

In 41 seasons between 1941 and 1981 it happened 11 times, with seven of those as all-New York affairs. The Bronx Bombers won six of those seven, then the teams split the next four.

But it’s been 43 years, and I’ve yet to see it in my lifetime. Assuming I make it to Friday, it’s on. I was even willing to plunk down the 30 bucks to get Sling for a month to watch the damn games!

Me parting with money… proof you know you’re getting something good.
