In some corners of this great nation of ours tonight, there is much wailing and gnashing. Milwaukee, for example. Boston, too. Tampa Bay. Baltimore. Los Angeles. Possibly even Cleveland, although I think they already wailed and gnashed a few months ago. Yes, CC Sabathia is a Yankee. As a Dodger fan, and therefore a card-carrying member of the "Society of People Who Use the Words 'Evil' and 'Yankees' Together in Too Many Sentences," it's a dark day. But I won't say it's a black day. More like a shrug-your-shoulders-gray day. More like, "yep, the Yankees got another one. What else is on the tube?" (To me, the most disturbing thing about hearing the news Wednesday was learning that Brian Cashman watches MTV's Cribs. Huh?) I'd even guess that a lot of fans who root against the Yankees felt the same way. And I think that's because the Yankees haven't been in a World Series in five years and haven't won one in eight years.
Up all hours talking baseball, cardboard & collecting
