My Favourite Dish

Enough of soap opera, 
of Erica and her sexiness; 
let me watch the Yankee game,
let me see their sweat; let me feel
their rivalry and hear their triumph! 
If you girls, don't switch channel,
this dish is coming down soon!
Your brothers and friends
will barge in any minute
with  beers and a six foot
hero to last all evening:
it's a guy thing...we must drink, jump,
shout, cheer and burp!
Still not listening...as if my presence 
were a ghost? Let me pull out
that plug and hear you scream! 
Go to the kitchen: chat or cook something!

Cute entry. The Yankees have to get their act together again if they want to make it to the World Series. A-Rod is getting up in years, and he'll have to accelerate his power if he ever wants to pass Barry Bonds' home run total.
