It's time for my semi-regular update on the 1986 Toronto Blue Jays- the team with the coolest mustaches in the game. For a refresher course, I posted about how I got roped into The Sporting News project 1986: Take Two here. J-Money and I also got together and conducted a very serious (if by serious, you mean "not serious at all") study of the '86 Jays and posted our findings over at The Sporting News-- and also here.

The power of Rance Mullinik's Marvelous Mustache continues - because my Toronto Blue Jays are rolling over the competition in the AL East at The Sporting News: 1986 Take Two. The Jays are sitting in first place in their division, with the best record (40-21) in the entire American League. That's right, the only team in the entire project managed by girls is beating the pants off of everyone else. (except the Padres- and we're gunning for you, Friars!) Hey, I gotta enjoy this view from the top while it lasts, ok?

I can't say the same pattern of total domination (hyperbole is awesome when you're winning) is occurring over in the Red Sox camp-- Curt Schilling's guys have only built up a 27-34 record, and are in 5th place in the division. At that rate, Boston will not have to worry about a repeat of the Buckner nightmare, because they won't be anywhere near the World Series.

Besides MY BLUE JAYS, you know who else was awesome in 1986:

Any excuse to post that classic is one I'm going to capitalize on. That clip never gets old.
