I don’t care as long as the Yankees lost! (Sorry to offend you Yankees fans, just my personal feelings.) I’ve been a Twins (and general baseball) fan sometimes hot, sometimes not, since Harmon and Tony were playing. (If you don’t know who they are sorry, I’m not telling :>p) I guess the main reason I don’t like the Crankees is that the organization seems to try to buy away the best players they can from other teams every year. I recently read that if they didn’t get to the World Series this year, Steinbrenner might scrap the whole team and buy himself a new one next year. I guess we’ll find out now if that is true. It seems like there is no loyalty in that organization, period. [At least if you’re reading this you are probably loyal to red tractors :>) !!]

I know that loyalty has been a declining part of pro sports, and that is why the only one I even half pay attention to is baseball. (I can listen to baseball on the radio while I work on old tractors and trucks and don’t have to be a couch potato to enjoy the game.) Frankly, I relish the day when a good player came up through the farm system and stayed with the team until they retired like Harmon, Kent, and Kriby (I know it would help if Pohlad would pay more too keep those guys too). I guess I like loyalty, seeing those retired jerseys hanging in the stadium, and seeing red tractors in my yard!

Just my nickel this morning.
