RIP Cory Lidle

As soon as I saw the breaking news headline, "Small plane crashes into New York building," I thought, "oh no, not again." And as sad as it was, it was sadder still for baseball fans.


I swear to God, the first so-called Yankee "fan" or media personality who blames any of the Yankees (e.g. A-Rod) for not going deeper into the playoffs and thus preventing this tragedy deserves a boot in the ass. Because you know some idiot will say it, and that's just wrong. Obviously no one wanted it to happen, but blaming the Yankees? That's pathetic. Blame the plane for malfunctioning. Blame fate for stepping in. Who knows. But blaming the Yankees shouldn't be anywhere on that list.

This is the only day I'll defend the Yankees, BTW!
