I used to be a diehard Yankees fan. I started following their games in 95, not because they were the Yankees but because the games were shown on the only channel that had a clear image on my television - no, I did not have cable nor satellite but an antenna. Well, as you all know the Yankees were not a team of All Stars but a team that showed plenty of heart. Bernie, Tino, Cone, Jeter, Girardi, Rivera, and Brosious were my hereos. Once that team began to be disassembled, Steinbrenner (Yankees owner) started transforming the team to a team of All Stars. I still followed and felt sadness when I would see them lose - specially in the ALCS vs. the Red Sox in 2004. Right after that, however, I had a change of heart. The Yankees had signed Randy Johnson and I just despised them for it. I mean they were taking all the best players from all the other teams. It didn't seem fair. From that time on, I have started rooting against them. What do you think of this?
