The New York Yankees have had their ups and downs. They have been in the World Series for a number of years and then they have had a bout with the Playoffs for the past few years. One thing I do know for sure is that THIS is the LAST YEAR that our Yankees will ever play in the Old Yankee Stadium. They will make this one of the best years that they've ever had. And their fans will do good to remember that this is the last year that they can honor their heroes - Babe Ruth, Yogi Berra, Joe DiMaggio, Lou Gehrig, and so many others, inside this old stadium. It is filled with fond memories and even though it is the last year that this stadium stands, the memories that took place there will last forever. I myself am attending quite a few games this year to show honor and respect for those who have lived and breathed Yankee Stadium. It was their heritage, their life, their courage and strength that made these memories that we cherish today.
It is only April and we have many months to go until the Playoffs. I am and always have been a true believer in the New York Yankees. Even with the injuries that they endure, the team always seems to compensate and overcome. The players and current stadium are an entity that so many of us only dream about. That is why we go there...whether win or lose... we will become part of that significant history.
