Yankees Are Back In World Series
I didn't write this post immediately after the Yankees won, because I wanted it to sink in. The Yankees are back in the World Series. For most fans, you could care less. Of course the Yanks are back in the World Series, they bought it, you might say. They were there in 2003, my team hasn't been there since Lord knows when, you might retort. As a Yankee fan, it's been a long time coming. When you're accustomed to winning, that's what you expect, for better or for worse. So when they make the World Series, you're happy. You hug random strangers. You stay up all night, too excited to go to sleep. You become a little kid again.
Tomorrow night, I'll wait around the TV anxiously for first pitch. I'll live and die with every pitch. I'll cheer when the Yanks score. I'll pout when the Phillies score. But, in a larger sense, it doesn't matter. All that matters is that the Yankees are back where they belong. I'm just along for the ride.
Note: I'm not going to give a prediction for this series, because frankly, as a Yankee fan, I cannot be objective.
