Jay was born in Queens, NY....so he's been a lifelong Yankees fan. I never really thought anything bad or good of them.....even though, for awhile, I think the Mariner's were the farm team for the Yanks. I do like Derek Jeter but that wasn't enough to make me a fan. And then comes Alex Rodriguez. Say what you will...I know, I know. I know ALL about him. Supposedly used steroids while in Texas, accused of being a HUGE womanizer, never really lived up to his potential in the post-season (until this year), and so on and so on. I KNOW ALL ABOUT THE NEGATIVES....
But, I still like the guy. Yes, he's cute. He's a darn good baseball player. Should he get paid what he does? No way...but that's the fault of the guy who agreed to pay him that kind of money. So, I am a huge Yankees fan as well.
I will add though, to balance things out since some of you are rolling your eyes and probably think very negative things about me now, that Jay's favorite guy is Mariano Rivera. He is a stud. He'll be 40 in November and he can still pitch lights out! We met him about 7 years ago while shopping downtown in Seattle. He was also doing some shopping before his night game against the M's and Jay about passed out. He grabs a cardboard box cover and asked Rivera to sign it. "To Jay, Mariano Rivera" Jay didn't stop smiling the whole day.
So, GO YANKEES!!!! We're cheering hard for them. Also, the Dodgers...since a World Series with the Yankees vs. Dodgers and their former coach is awesome.
