Letter to the Editor: "Nasty, yucky Yankees"

The San Luis Obispo Tribune (California)

November 10, 2010 Wednesday


Dear Editors:

Baseball has more statistics than you can imagine. Here are some that are guaranteed to take the wind out of Dodgers fans’ sails. They have been very useful to this Giants fan since our glorious victory.

World Series appearances:

Giants: 18; and Dodgers: 18.

World Series wins:

Giants: 6; and Dodgers: 6.

They are tied for second place in both categories. The nasty, yucky Yankees are, of course, in first.

I am counting the days until spring training 2011.

Is this letter from a real moron or did you make him up? Assuming he's real, he should be reminded that he's entitled to his own opinions but not to his own facts. [Does he work for Fox News?] The Gigantes are not tied for second in either category.
Pennants: Yankees 40, Dodgers 22, Cardinals 21, Giants 21.
World Series wins: Yankees 27, Cardinals 10, Athletics 9, Red Sux 7, Dodgers 6, Giants 6.

Sadly, he is real.

You can't make this stuff up.
