Deja vu all over again…
Is it just me or does it kinda feel like the 90s? The Yankees won the world series, with Andy Petit pitching the final game, Jeter continuing his consistency in November, and Mariano Rivera closing it out…wow it felt good to watch that! It was an exciting post season and once the Yankees were up 3-1 I couldn’t help but having that same feeling of 100% confidence and expectation that The Yankees were going to be World Series Champions….just like the good ol’ 90′s.
But this 90′s nostalgia doesn’t have to stop there…Once again we have a Democratic President who seems like he can talk his way out of anything. USA basketball won Gold in the Bejing olympics, the number “23″ is arguably the number of the best player of the NBA, The Simpsons still airs new episodes every Sunday night at 8pm, American cars are still inferior to foreign imports, Coke is still king of soda, McDonalds still king of fast food, Americans are still fat, Canada is still Canada (no explanation needed), New Jersey (usually a democratic state) has a Republican governor again, Jeniffer Aniston is still single, Jay-Z is still coming out with hits, and Boston still sucks…
If we are really going back to the glory days of the go go 90′s, then who knows what will happen…will The US be loved/envy’d again? will the dollar kick every other currencys’ ass? will clothes be baggy again? will we be saying “word” when we agree on something? I sure hope so especially the baggy clothes part…to quote Jay-z “can’t wear skinny jeans cause my knots don’t fit”
Ok ok, yes I know our president is black, the cadillac cts-v is amazing, number 24 might be better than number 23, at this point Famly Guy is far more superior than The Simpsons (that was really hard to admit btw), A-rod doesn’t have the lovable nature that Tino Martinez or Bernie Williams had, and the world definately still hates us…but if you just step back and look at the big picture you’ll see that we haven’t changed that much from the 90′s… ”I will always love hamburgers, always prefer watching tv to reading a book, the Yankees will always be synonymous with greatness, and The USA will always be the best country in the world…period
I know the video doesn’t work but click on the youtube link and enjoy…

I’m sure there are some similarities I forgot, or 90′s moments that are worth mentioning, so comment and let me know your favorite 90′s moment/phrase/show/etc…
