    I have not written any articles recently, but still following usual teams. I am especially following my Yankee team & in college football my Penn State team. I also keep track of teams playing against them (rivals). The MLB AL East with our team & Rays closest it's been between two teams in many years. I am disappointed in our manager in some of his decisions lately I feel has cost us some games!. I believe we will win the East no matter what it looks like in the standings/schedules.

    Hey Ethel,

    The new Yankee Stadium had been criticized for its lack of intensity and electricity in the early months of the season, but this weekend’s series against the Red Sox finally make a familiar place seem like HOME.

    Thanks in advance, and I would look to hear your opinions and feedback. Take care.

    Yankee fans rooting for the Red Sox? Has hell frozen over, or is there a rational thought process at the root of it all. Read why it is ok for you to root for Boston on select occasions without feeling like Benedict Arnold.

    Hey Ethel,

    There has always been a connection between religion and sports, and Major League Baseball has certainly not been the exception to the rule.

    Check out the All-Catholic lineup…the best Catholic names (by position) in MLB history.

    Thanks as always!

    Hey Ethel,

    The turmoil surrounding the 1977 Yankees earned them the nickname of “The Bronx Zoo.” The current 2009 Yankees have an interesting blend of leaders and pranksters, so I decided to create a LITERAL “zoo.”

    Check out what animal each Yankee would be reincarnated as in a next life.

    Thanks everyone!

    Hey,

    Chien-Ming Wang collected his 1st win in 379 days. This puts him on pace to reach 300 wins on Oct. 21, 2263. Can it happen? Read why I am not ruling the tall Taiwanese right-hander out quite yet.

    Hey,

    The Yankees have been putrid against Boston this year, especially over a 3-game sweep in Fenway Park. They are returning to the scene of the crime tonight, and this slideshow highlights 5 major reasons why this time around could be very different:
