So Tyler Kepner's piece today on The Gleyber—inane as Duque says it is, in its praise of the Yankees' brass—combined with the game story, puts the Yanks even with Soccer, in the Times' coverage on the year.
Yep. 65-65. We're all even, folks!
Quite a comeback after being down, 15-1, after a January in which the Times felt the only thing worth covering about the Yankees was putting up the foul-ball net.
The Bronx team has fought its way even into the ram-hunting, sled-hockeying, soccer ball consciousness of the NY Times. Hoo-rah.
Sure, many obstacles remain. We have yet to get to this year's World Cup, for instance, during which we will surely see a furious comeback by Soccer, even with the U.S.'s dimwitted team out of it.
But...tied!
The ManU-Chelsea FA Cup final will be good for 2 articles minimum.
ReplyDeleteDrat! You're right. Especially after that riveting article about how Man City clinched first place on an off day.
ReplyDeleteThe World Cup is going to kill us. Tough competition this summer.
