Well it is the middle of February and for baseball fans that means that it is time for pitchers and catchers to report. It is especially a nice time for me, I am a huge baseball fan and not just any fan I am a Yankee fan living in Boston. Yes I am living "behind enemy lines." How did this happen?
Well I was born in the Bronx, NY, not far from Yankees Stadium. I lived in New York for most of my youth except for high school. Through the years I have had a lot of laughs at Red Sox fans expense and I have won a lot of bets from them. Year after year they would invent a new way to blow it. Bucky Dent, Bill Buckner, Aaron Boone. I could go on and on, but I do not have that much time to type.
They finally had their day in 2004 and it was at my team's expense. I took a lot of heat which was expected through all the mud I slung through the years. Then they won again in 2007. I was in bizarro world, everything was upside down. Down was up, up was down. What happened to my team? They always had the last laugh.
Well last year they won it all again for the 28th time. The MOST in any major sport. The Yankees are back on top and the Red Sox fans are moaning about their team again. Everything is finally okay in the baseball universe.
