Every time I take the Yankees to task, I’m branded every foul noun in the book, my baseball loyalty is doubted, and I’m accused of morphing into a closet Mets fan.
Truth is, when you’re on this side of the sport, from reportage to commentary, you want stories that stir the masses. So, frankly, it’s just good for business when baseball is salient on both sides of the Harlem River.
Yankees fans are in full fear, if not retreat. The bedrock lead the Bombers had over the Blue Jays has been vaporized and they are now looking up at their foes from the north.
