The Yankees in the Onion - Great Stuff
NEW YORK—Saying the American League wild-card bid is “beneath the dignity of the Yankees organization” and “an affront to everything [we] stand for,” New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner and manager Joe Torre told reporters during a press conference Wednesday that the Yankees have respectfully declined the opportunity to participate in Major League Baseball’s postseason if they have to do so as the American League’s wild-card team.
Somehow, if this actually happened, it wouldn’t surprise me. I love seeing the Yankees working out in Wild Card Champion t shirts. Isn’t that a contradiction? Isn’t a champion precisely what the wild card is not?
Everyone cheer for the Indians tonight - Go Cleveland!
Stumble it!
