You know, baseball is my favorite sport by a long way. Head and shoulders above the rest. That said, as a lifelong Yankees fan, god DAMN do I hate trying to talk baseball most of the time. The vigor with which people will ignore my attempts at normal conversation to tell me about how much they hate the Yanks (all the more irritating the LESS OF A REASON YOU HAVE TO DO SO DAMMIT) is kind of shocking. Please do not start with the "evil empire" conversation and try to tell me my favorite team is "buying championships and ruining the sport" or any of the other bullshit I constantly hear during baseball season.
On a lighter note, I thought he was being overly optimistic, but man did my brother call it, and I'm gonna back him on this one. After how close he came last season when he finally broke out, I think Robbie Cano can finally do it. Bring home an AL MVP, my good man. Do it to it.
EDIT: upon further inspection, I feel it necessary to add that I'm not trying to call out anybody in this thread with that first part of my post, it just has a way of coming around every time I really don't want it to.
