.....to disappoint their fans.
Sure, some will argue that the Yankees cannot control Mother Nature. Rains are gonna come, and sometimes they come a random.
But if you are a fan of practically any other team, today is a big day. Joyous in many ways, despite the hell of the world.
Leather will pop and bats will crack. Cheers will blast from the stands. Hot dogs will beckon.
All the tedious waiting is finally over.
But not for Yankee fans. One last delay. One final torture. One more nail in the fucking coffin.
Any of you who think this is not a dark omen, you better get a bottle of Jim Beam, a great woman, and a cheap hotel room.
It has to be the Yankees. The biggest showcase. Put a pin in it.
Spahn and Sain and pray for rain?
Not today, thank you.
This opinion piece in the Gray Lady, smacks like an Onion article at times, but, gatdamn!, I wish it came true. How much worse could a gov't takeover be than the dreck we are fed every year?

If I could get all that, Alphonso, I assure you that I would be less than interested in the Yankees.
