the Yankees in four of Joe Torre’s World Series runs and was memorably thrown to the ground by Pedro Martinez

which underscores the sexual tension between the two that isn’t resolved until this show’s seventh season. The main
female character from this show lacks social skills, an absence which is evidenced by her continued use of the

praised for its modern-day realism, one example being that the main superhero makes use of MySpace to find
