Yankeetorial: We should not play ball with socialist agenda of Redsocks

As Ben Franklin shouted, after Betsy Ross nearly trod upon his snake, "Unhand my liberty!"

In recent months, the Redsocks have been carping about Yankee spending on salaries to anyone who'll listen. They want baseball to be like pro wrestling, where everything is controlled by Connecticut-based Vince McMahon.

Enough is enough is enough!

Major League Baseball is broken. The owners aren't listening. The players aren't listening. The announcers aren't listening. The media is in on it, too. We are the greatest team in the world, and we should stop playing their game.

On opening day, the Redsocks will play to their own agenda, regardless of what we do. Their fans will cheer them and boo us. They'll get what they want.

IT'S TIME FOR REAL YANKEES TO STAND TALL.

DON'T PLAY THEIR GAME. HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH OPENING DAY.

THE YANKEE PEOPLE NEED SOLIDARITY.

WE NEED ALL 25 YANKEES, PLUS THE PLAYERS AT SCRANTON-WILKES BARRE, TO STAND FIRM AND NOT ACCEPT A PITCH.

WE WILL HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SERIES IN BOSTON.

And by the way, the address for them is 4 Yawkey Way, just in case any of you would like to pay them a visit, leave a little calling card, so to speak... heh heh... you know what I mean, dammit. (BUT DON'T GET CAUGHT.)
