It ticks me off to no end that the public and the media basically accept George Steinbrenner's wailings. His latest, of course, was that Yankee manager Joe Torre could be fired if the Yanks don't advance to the ALCS.
Please. The Yankees don't have a birthright to be in the World Series every year. Stop acting like they do, George. Instead, try and put a good (not necessarily costly) team on the field instead. (I saw a sarcastic suggestion online that George could file a lawsuit to have the Yankees declared division champs, ALCS champs and in the World Series "just because". That sounds so like him.
Yankee pride shouldn't be equated with stupidity. And that's what it all comes down to.
