As a writer, it’s important to self-critique. And I think I overuse the word “annoying” in most of my words about the Yankees. There are only a lot of synonyms to use that I try to mix in—exasperating, tedious, aggravating, etc.— but then again, nothing really captures the feeling like the word “annoying.” Even just saying the word makes you feel at least a little annoyed.
Why do I say all that? Well, because the Yankees are annoying and have been for the greater part of my experience as a fan. You can be successful and annoying at this same time, don’t you worry.
