*This post is a rant and filled with my opinions. You don’t have to agree and you have been warned.*

Let’s get this out of the way right now Yankee fans. Yesterday’s game sucked. It sucked up one side and down the other. It was frustrating from the start and just got worse as the hot, steamy, dank day went on. With that said, can everyone please stop trashing the Yankees?

My goodness, the team is 20-6 in their last 26 games and people are acting as if a two-game losing streak is the worst thing ever. I’ll give you a hint, it’s not.

At yesterday’s game, I was surrounded by people who did nothing but complain all day. Granted there was a lot to complain about but you’d have thought the Yankees had lost 10 games coming into yesterday and that they were in last place. It was like Twitter on steroids.

And speaking of steroids, the Alex Rodriguez bashing got to be too much for me. I’m one of the most staunch Rodriguez defenders you’ll ever meet. I can’t help it. I like to defend the people who get the most lip from people. Though, I’ll admit, right now he does deserve some of the criticism. But yesterday, I had a guy near me in Section 234 who was talking about how he’s not clutch and then was bringing up guys like Tino Martinez, Scott Brosius and their clutch-ness (His made up word, not mine).

Lesson time kids…
